I saw ur vdo of Egypt travel on utube Tarik and they were fantastict. But i am reading Egyptian History since about a year as an ametuer. I don't agree ur political views. I won't say anything about Jamal Nasser bcs I don't think the actual worsening of the Egyptian people arrived in 20th century. It was after Napolean occupied it in 1799. The damage started from there. When all the antiquities of Egypt were looted in the reign of Mohammad Ali Pasha and his sons. All the westerners were invited under the rules of capitulation. Many Europeans were given high offices and even consultants who always worked for the west. They transferred loads . of antiquities to British Museum, Louvre France, Berlin and even Austria. The consultancy provided by them bankrupted the kings themselves and they had to sold shares in Suez canal (ismail pasha) to british government and they bought it with the help of famous jew faimly Rothschild. Rothschild are the founder of Zionism. One rothschild financed British empire to get shares in Suez and other Rothscchild occupied space in palestine to establish first jew settlement there. In 1882 after just 7 years of purchasing suez shares Britian took hold of Egypt saying that our investment in egypt is in dangour. They exploited antiquities, cash crop Cotton for their manchester textile mills. Only making Egypt as a base they operated in first world war and snatched palestine and Pasha faimly was still acting as kings. Jews were settling in palestine in a large number (see wikipedia records of jewish immigration to palestine after 1882). Actual plans of a jewish state in Palestine was taking solid shape only after British occupied Egypt. Mohammad Ali pash in his reign permitted jews to settle in Palestine. He was the friend of many Zionists as Moses Montifero (see who was he and how he contributed israel establishment)this faimly is actually responsible in my view of destroying Egypt.Zionist worked under the nose of Farooq pasha in Cairo downtown and they kept closed their eyes. At that time jews (they themselve claim) were holding the economy of Egypt. Only after the wars of 1948 and 1967 the Egyptians realized the jews are dangerous for Egypt. http://www.egy.com/judaica/93-09-11.shtml and see some other articles of Riffat who has close terms with Zionist or jews whaever u say them. I am sorry if my accent is bitter but do rem Farooq was not a king of Egyptians. he was the servent of Britain. And Britian offcourse was the servent of the Bankers who financed them. Read about Rothschild and Benjamin Disraeli. I hope u won't mind my long lecture. By the way i am a student of ph. D telecommunications, Ms. Tazeen Hasan
