Admittedly, I got this from Mike Savage. But it's an interesting point.
Do Egyptians routinely use English in their day to day communication?? Why are there so many signs written in clear English protesting the Mubarak government??? Who are they directing their complaints to? |

@ toney baloney
They know they can reach the most people & the worlds police (jewmerica) by using English. Tell me you don't know that English or Russian was req'd, by the majority of countries in the world, before the cold war was over? Also. you didn't know there is an American University in Cairo? http://www.aucegypt.edu/Pages/default.aspx |

Still, if they are speaking to their own people on such a domestic issue, I would expect to see the signs written in their native toungue. |

English is the current language of business and diplomacy. It used to be French. You didn't know this? And you can choose sides all you want. I could give a flying shit. I just find it curious and believe the whole situation is a broadway show, made for an American audience, and somehow influenced by our president. |

That's why I'm asking the question, douche. The fact that I know little about Egypt is because it means less to me than the dogshit I wiped off my shoes yesterday. |

There's more than one reason. |
