Egypt Is A Ticking Time Bomb. - Good Times Bad Times

[TexasTowelie]

In 2022, in response to rising food prices Egyptian president Abdel Fattah El-Sisi suggested that Egyptians could always eat leaves from trees as the prophet Muhammad did while imprisoned near Mecca for three years. This may not be a very funny joke to the people of Egypt, but it says a lot about the current economic situation of this ancient place. In 2024 A.D. more and more disasters are raining down on Egypt like the plagues that god Yahweh brought upon the Egyptians as described in the biblical Book of Exodus.

This time however it is not a plague of cattle locusts or the turning of the Nile's water into blood but a series of very unfavorable geopolitical, economic, and social phenomena that are turning Egypt into a bump with a smoldering fuse. President El-Sisi is trying to put it out, but he is doing it so clumsily that his actions are beginning to look more and more like those of his ousted predecessor, Hosni Mubarak.
