Colonel Ahmad Urabi (April 1, 1841 - September 21, 1911), also known as Urabi Pasha, was a member of the Egyptian army who revolted against the khedive and the European domination of Egypt in 1879 in what has become known as the Urabi Revolt.
The khedive and his cabinet sentenced him to death, but under pressure the sentence was commuted and Urabi was exiled to the British colony of Ceylon, where he spent the rest of his life inviting the locals to Islam and teaching them Arabic.
Urabi and other leaders of the revolt acknowledged the Copts as potential allies and worked to prevent any targeting of the minority, but were not always successful since the English tried many times to plant

Urabi wanted to block the canal, but he made a mistake when he believed Ferdinand de Lesseps, who had assured Urabi that the British would not risk damage to the canal, and would avoid involving it in operations at all costs.
Urabi attempted to recapture the canal when he attacked the British forces near Kassassin on September 10.
Urabi had retreated in the battle, and with no organised forces left to him, he and his National Party's officials surrendered to the cavalry.

This class, so far as its civilian members were concerned, was not very formidable, because these were not likely to go beyond the bounds of intrigue and passive resistance; but it contained a military element who had more courage, and who had learned their power when Ismail employed them for overturning his constitutional ministry.
He was a charismatic leader who was followed by a group of fellow army officers and many amongst the lower classes.
Urabi pleaded guilty, was sentenced to death, the sentence being commuted by the khedive to banishment; and Riaz resigned in disgust.

Shauna Huffaker of UC Santa Barbara offered a scathing account of British portrayals of Egyptian leader Ahmed Urabi on the eve of England's invasion of Egypt in 1882.
Urabi was a colonel in the Egyptian army who had led a populist revolt against the ruling khedive and his European backers in 1879.
In the run-up to England's invasion three years later, the British press was demeaning of the Egyptian leader, as Huffaker illustrated with slides of issues of Punch and other publications of the day.

When the British deposed of Ismail and installed his son Tawfik, the now Egyptian-dominated army reacted violently, staging a revolt led by Minister of War Ahmed Urabi, self-styled el-Masri ('the Egyptian'), against the Khedive, the Turko-Circassian elite, and the European stronghold.
Sheikh Muhammad Abduh, the son of a Delta farmer who was briefly exiled for his participation in the Urabi revolt and a future Azhar Mufti, was its most notable advocate.
They delineated a liberal outlook for their country expressed as a commitment to individual freedom, secularism, an evolutionary view of the world and faith in science to bring progress to human society.

The decline of the administrative status of Safad was not accidental.
It was the inevitable result of the strengthening of Acre's position, especially after the administration of Sheikh Dahir al-Umar (1730-1775).3 Acre's growth was enhanced during the rule of Governor General Ahmed Pasha al-Jazzar (1776-1804) and his successors, Suleyman Pasha and Abdallah Pasha, who turned Acre into a political and administrative center of the province.
The Chief Rabbi of the town organized a banquet for forty Muslim youths, in order to win their protection.31The Muslim residents of Safad showed solidarity with Ahmed Urabi, the leader of the uprising in Egypt in 1882.

 Isma'il Pasha - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A further commission of inquiry by Major Baring (afterwards 1st Earl of Cromer) and others in 1878 culminated in Ismail making over his estates to the nation and accepting the position of a constitutional sovereign, with Nubar as premier, Charles Rivers Wilson as finance minister, and de Bhigriires as minister of public works.
This control of the country was unacceptable to many Egyptians, who united behind a disaffected Colonel Ahmed Urabi.
With the country largely in the hands of Urabi, Ismail could not agree, and had little interest in doing so.

In both cases, successful colonization depended on a local ruling class who directed the process and provided a semblance of native legitimacy, who at the same time were true believers in the supremacy of Western science and technology.
By the time of the `Urabi nationalist revolt in 1881, even local resistance to the colonial order had come to be expressed within the framework of Western terms.
One of the demands of the revolt was to provide schooling—British and French style—for all members of Egyptian society, not just the technocrats who were running the country and policing foreign investments.

Students and roommates Ahmed Bedeir (Abdel Moneim Ibrahim), Ali Taha, and Mahgoub Abdel Dayem (a novice Hamdi Ahmed) are about to graduate from Fuad I University (later Cairo University) and make their way into the class and status obsessed society of Cairo.
They live in a boarding house with fellow students where they discuss the burning political issues of the day, under the watchful portraits of Ahmad Urabi and Mustafa Kamel (one of Abu Seif’s less subtle allusions!) Abu Seif seamlessly twines the political, personal, and comical, all in one perfect bundle.
The three principals are a study in contrasts: the journalist Ahmed is comical and freewheeling, adept at hobnobbing with the rich and powerful to extract sensationalistic stories for his paper.

Exactly like the assassinations of Ahmed Yassin, Abdul-Aziz Ar-Rantissi, and the attempt to assassinate Khalid Mesh'al in Jordan.
But of course, it's much more easier and faster to launch some missiles on an old man sitting on a wheeled chair (like Ahmed Yassin), just like the way insects are killed, rather than capturing him and sending him to trial.
The main question is really more about the readiness of Israel to do it legally, rather than to do it by arm -an expression in Arabic-, knowing that Israel claims to be a democratic state, that should provide a bright example for its neighbors, in terms of respecting human rights.

The Egyptian forces in the Sudan were insufficient to cope with the rebels and the northern government was engaged in suppressing the Ahmed UrabiArabi revolt.
