Tourism is a major commercial industry in Egypt. Imagine all those tourists not going to the Great Pyramid nor to see the Sphinx. Imagine Cruise Ships not pulling into the Egyptian ports with all those passengers with their Euros.
The Egyptians need to go get those Tourists back in a hurry otherwise they will find themselves in the same plight as the so-called Palestinians. I.E. going broke fast.
I believe Egyptian Tourism is already feeling the shock, and I hope no one goes there for a long time.
I haven’t much sympathy for tourists who go somewhere and put their heads in the Lion’s mouth.
You will not catch me in Mexico, Africa ,Indonesia, Egypt, Libya, Iraq, Iran,or any other place where I am hated by the populace or criminals are running the country.
