From Jihad Watch:
The things that we were assured won't, can't, or ought not to happen after the Egyptian revolution are happening. Egypt's economy will suffer, leading to widespread discontent and potential political unrest. Good thing there's always Israel to blame. "Egypt’s Brotherhood declares war on the bikini," from All Headline News, August 25:
Sunbathing in Alexandria may soon be a thing of the past, at least if some Egyptian Islamist politicians have their way.
Egypt's tourism industry has suffered a severe blow since the outburst of anti-regime demonstrations in January. But that did not stop the Freedom and Justice Party, the political wing of the Muslim Brotherhood, from demanding stricter regulations over what tourists can do and wear while visiting the country. The party is urging officials to ban skimpy swimwear and the consumption of alcohol on Egyptian streets.
Freedom and Justice: you are free to obey Sharia, which will be given a monopoly on the definition of "justice."
"Beach tourism must take the values and norms of our society into account," Muhammad Saad Al-Katatny, secretary-general of Freedom and Justice, told Egyptian tourism officials on Monday. "We must place regulations on tourists wishing to visit Egypt, which we will announce in advance."
The call for new strictures on tourists comes as Egypt debates the role of Islam in the post-Mubarak era. Freedom and Justice is competing in elections scheduled for this autumn for parliament and opinion polls show a majority of Egyptians favor a greater use of Islamic law and mores. But a vocal minority worries that Egypt risks becoming an Islamic republic.
But the Obama administration's director of national intelligence said the Brotherhood was "largely secular."
"This is how things began in Iran," Hani Henry, a psychology professor at the American University in Cairo, told The Media Line. "The moderate youth wanted to implement changes, but the mullah's hijacked the revolution. The same thing is now happening here in Egypt with the Muslim Brotherhood. It makes me sick to my stomach."

  1. I thought that the nose of the Spinx was originally broken off on purpose by Mohammedans to obey the profit's demand that likenesses of living creatures shouldn't exist, but I'm not sure.
    The Pyramids were originally covered with smooth limestone which was also removed by the Mohammedans in order to build masques.
    The Taliban were also following the profit when they blew up those Buddha statues in Afghanistan.

  3. Alexander Münch,

    Unfortunately we really do have reason to worry. Its probably going to get much worse than this.

  5. cjk,
    I wonder if that is true. It sounds true. Why was that stuff not taught in history classes?

    Indeed it was covered with shiny white limestone , the nose story might be different i remember reading that a soldier in Napoleons army used the nose as target practice , who knows?

  7. Will,
    I remember hearing that story too. However, historically it does not make sense. If I am not mistaken, Napoleon was pre-occupied with art, and the acquisition thereof. Perhaps I am wrong about that.

  8. The totality of egyptian antiquities, and the desert climate allowing them to exist after 1000's of years make them EASILY the most valuable and important in the world. Their original damages and disrepair WERE because of how Islam regarded them, there is no argument about it.

    The temple of Abu Simbel shows what can be done to preserve such items.

    LETS TAKE THEM OFF THEIR HANDS AND CHARGE BIG FAT ADMISSION.

    We can put them near Las Vegas.
    Dita Von Teese can dance for us in the REAL Memphis.

    Or put it in the NEGEV, and the Israelis can charge for it.

    The jews caring for the pagan stones would be fitting for these MB idiots.

    If not, I'm sure the Donald would think up a perfect way to use them all.

    ;)

  9. I love your idea. Especially the part about Dita Von Teese, which quite frankly is the only part I really remember at this point.
