Congrats to all the people of Egypt! This is a new day for our country! Those folks who spent 18 days hunkered down in Tahrir square accomplished the impossible! I Called all my family and friends it was a great moment. Too bad I missed being there

As members of this great community we all stand together in times of need and support eachother. I just want you to know that if you are interested to contribute you can... As you know Tourism took a big hit as a result of this revolution. A hefty price given its a major source of income. Hotels are reporting occupancy rates of less than 3% in all our favourite spots; Sharm, Dahab,Cairo Luxor, Alex etc...
I would ask that you consider Egypt in your future vacation plans to help support our country and preserving the lovely dive spots and country treasures that we have all come to cherish over the years.
Cheers
 
No worries Marwan, holiday booked before the remarkable current events, no change of plans, still going.
Takes more than a revolution to keep us away from the Red Sea. :)

I too would like to give my respect to the Egyptian people.
I have no water based holidays planned, but rest assured that as a regular visitor to the Red Sea, it is still a place I love and will be back ASAP without hesitation.

I wish for a peaceful and prosperous future for such a wonderful place!

Our prayers are with them during this struggle. May they be blessed with peace and prosperity.
 
For how much I wish the people of Egypt to live free and prosperous, I have to remain critical and vigilant.

Don't chear too soon, for you should know that the people's good intentions are always used to build the road to [the next] hell.

Please stop being fooled by the globalist. The groups they fund and bring to the front in this recent approach of soft power colour 'revolutions'. I'm sure big companies have already prepared their plans for Egypt.
For instance I expect Monsanto would sure like to help solve the food problem with some terminator gene crops, that prove to be very successful enslaving and depopulating countries such as India.

I'm sorry to say but I just would like people to think and look deeper before they go back to their daily routines, paying tax and being defenceless dependent people following the given misleaders, instead of using their own heart and mind.


In my own country it's not much better either btw. We have plenty of slaves, who have total blind trust in any authority.

Its an amazing time for Egypt, Marwan thanks so much for your posts - i particularly enjoyed watching and listening to the videos you posted which add much more than TV reports - they are quite beautiful.
So for Egypt a time of renewal and hope :) its also a good source of hope for other places that want to change...

We are not getting any news on Egypt at the moment as Libya is dominating the news now.
Unfortunatly the people there are getting delt to, i hope the millitary there don't inflict to many casualties.
but they seem as determined as the people of Egypt so good luck to them
 
I hope that all the Arab people decide freely for their future...the river will turn back on its course...
 
I hope my government uses it's head and HEART during these critical times. Too often greed and powerplays intervene.

Kars - it is possible to respect and celebrate the spirit of a thing - and of people - without conditioning that upon the ultimate results.

In a way there are no 'ultimate results' - in the ebb and flow of the world.

What we have in Egypt is a gesture, temporal in form and beautiful in spirit.

From this unconditioned and timeless place we can let our hearts wish them well.

Thank you Fondueset, I agree with your words. I am very happy Egypt and other countries are still having a passion for freedom, and in fact I think people in the middle east are often more passionate than those here.

My words were meant more as a warning and a heads up to people around the world to be and stay very vigilant to those higher chess games that are being played.

My wish and hope for the people around the world is to keep their eye on the price and not buy the snake oil of another salesman selling another form of statism.

Love, Courage and Water,

Kars
