‘Goodbye the peaceful and romantic travel destination image!’
Egypt is in.
Not because of archaelogical discovery (as I had expected), but because of a revolution! I was surprised when I found out about it last week. For me, Egypt seemed like, what, the only country in Middle-east that was not identified with war and chaos? Except at the borders, yes.
From what I’ve seen in Egypt’s popular culture, they’re not like most of Middle-east countries. Their soap operas have women dressed in lace tops with bare shoulders and shorts, which are very short. That’s for example. I think Mubarak has tried to Americanized Egypt and it’s what makes the people angry.
Okay, I disagree with the people killing Christian Coptics in Nag Hammadi, Egypt. And don’t label those people ‘moslems.’ They are NOT moslems. Moslems are not the kind of people killing anybody around! They’re just murderers!
But I agree with whoever wants to topple Mubarak. It kills me to see any country being like a dog licking United States’ shoes, begging for bones. And to think that my country is being like that too! United States is not the governess of the world and should stop nursering other countries! It makes me sick to see US feeling like I-know-all-better while it actually only knows what’s better for itself!
And what have we here? McCain just agreed that Mubarak needed to go off the show. Ha! Makes me suspicious if they already have a plan to put yet another puppet on Mubarak’s chair? Time will tell.
Not that I hate the US. I’m sure there are many good people there. It’s just the government, I think. See, I like Broadway. I like their national parks, the way the preserve nature is a thing I always admire, I admire their health system (not completely, though). I’m not anti-American. I’m anti-current-American-government. Ha ha.
