Victory without war for the NDP
I don't love football, which is the most famous game in the world. I don't read news about football in the papers. (Well, only a little.) The Egypt-Algeria World Cup qualifying match in Cairo was quite possibly the only match I ever watched in my (...)

An investor is innocent until proven otherwise
Ramadan lanterns are still imported into Cairo, as are prayer carpets, rosaries and white gilbabs, all of which are also exported, from China, to Riyadh. When I was in Beijing last week, I searched for these products, but, of course, I didn't find (...)

Neither ElBaradei nor Moussa
There is much news floating around about the possibility that Dr. Mohamed ElBaradei intends to run for president in the upcoming elections. But nobody has bothered himself to tackle the core of the issue. The main point is not ElBaradei's desire for (...)
