The problem of Egypt

by Anonyme - 17/09/2010 - 15:11

I have recently visited Egypt and I can assure that it is not precisely a poor country. Egypt, apart from the tourism, possesses an enviable agriculture, an energetic system based on the system of dams that it allows them to be self-sufficient and, in addition, it is an strategic point in the world diplomacy for being the border between west and east (if we do not remember which was the first Islamic country that Obama visited ...). On the other hand, the photos of this gentleman populate the country, and the whole world knows that what exists there is a concealed dictatorship. Not, gentleman, the problem of Egypt is not the lack of resources, but Hosni Mubarak.
