They say Egypt
looks bad now, but the reality is that Egypt looks better than ever
before. That's what Michelle Dunne and her new protégé, Nik Nevin have written
in the article that came under the title: “Egypt Now Looks a Lot Like It Did
in 2010, Just Before 2011 Unrest,” published on December 17, 2015 in the Wall
Street Journal.
For a long time, this woman has had an unhealthy fixation on
Egypt .
No matter what the country did, she hated it, and always said so. The
difference between the past and now, however, is that she no longer ends her
articles with a roaring wail to the effect that America and her allies must
punish Egypt anyway they can.
She doesn't wail now because she knows she'll be straining
her vocal cords for nothing, given that no one in America or anywhere in the world
listens to her anymore. So the question that comes to mind is this: Who is she
trying to impress with her continued campaign to insult and denigrate Egypt ?
Well, you may analyze what she says using any method you
wish, and you'll always have to conclude that her fixation on Egypt has
something to do with her psychological makeup. That's another way of saying
that the lady is a psycho. And when someone is in that condition, you don't try
to understand them. You only describe what they say and what they do.
It must also be said that Michelle Dunne is a very unlucky
woman for writing and publishing an article like that at a time when there
appeared in Forbes Magazine a report that's written under a title which read:
“10 Top Cities Around the World To Launch your Startup,” and where Cairo –
which is Egypt's capital city – is listed. Before listing the cities, however,
or discussing their achievements, the report explains what it's all about. And
this is what it says:
“An infographic showing the top 10 places to launch your
startup holds a few surprises. Richard Madison of The Brighton School of
Business and Management … first highlights best startup countries, and then
drills down to their most outstanding cities.” The ten cities are then listed
and discussed in some detail.
What follows is what is said about Cairo
in particular – and Egypt
in general:
“The mass of young, educated and enlightened graduates in
Egypt are now turning out an array of startups … They are exploiting the birth
of many new accelerators and crowd funding campaigns … Cairo is also home to
some of the best engineering talent in MENA [Middle East North Africa,] and
that has to do with the quality of universities they have there.”
What makes Michelle Dunne so unlucky is that she is so
misinformed … Or perhaps she knows how the young in Egypt were affected by the events
of the past four years, except that her psychotic condition forbids her from
telling the truth. Instead of painting a picture of the new Egypt as it is
described in the Forbes report by those who know what they are talking about, look
what she says:
“Youth are repressed or manipulated … a new party that won a
surprising 50 seats is led by a 24-year-old supporter of President Sisi and
called Future of the Homeland … there is no dynamic youth-led movement to
protest peacefully.”
Protest what, Michelle? What do you want them to protest?
That they form a mass of young, educated and enlightened graduates? That they
are turning out an array of startups? That they are exploiting the birth of
many new accelerators and crowd funding campaigns? That they live in Cairo , a city that is
home to some of the best engineering talent in MENA? That the quality of
universities they have there is second to none? Is that what's gnawing at your
heart, Michelle? What's lighting an inferno in your belly?
Could it be that your condition is so advanced, Michelle
Dunne, you cannot stomach the idea that a 24-year-old has established a new
party, has won 50 seats in parliament and has decided to support his President
instead of experiencing the joy of going down in the streets to riot, burn,
loot and attack the police?
