Have you been to Egypt before or any arabic country

Rey C.

Racing is life... anything else is just waiting.
No, but I'd love to go someday. A friend of mine and his wife just returned from Rome (he's an even bigger Romaphile than I am), and they both had a wonderful time (him going on guided tours of the ancient city and her maxing out her credit cards in the shops). It would be a dream come true to visit some of the world's great, historical places. And Egypt being the land of the pharaohs, Alexander the Great and Julius Caesar would easily be near the top of my list of places to visit.
 
Yes I have (Turkey & Egypt) & yes I will (leaving the 17th of september & going to Egypt again (although I'll also visit Jerusalem & Petra (woohoo, I finally get to meet Petra!!!) ).

Yes, I live in Sweden.... Get it?
 
I've never been to any Arabic country but I'm still happy to pigeonhole all Arabs as evil commie scum who worship the wrong god, oppress their women, fuck little boys, promote homophobia, believe in creationism (this is only a valid belief when one believes in Christian creationism).
I believe they are an entirely different species, entirely inferior to white man, who invented mathematics, medicine, alchemy, astronomy and alcohol.

I am entirely happy to claim all brown women are hairy and ugly despite never having lifted the veil on one of them.
I think India is an Arabic country, populated entirely by Islamic extremists and that it is entirely acceptable to utilise nuclear weapons on these countries that I believe I can pass judgement on despite never having been to.

Oh what the heck, I'll end the polemnic here :rolleyes: It wasn't amusing anyone anyways.

Sadly, this view is probably not to far off from how many of my countrymen think.:anonymous
 
I never go to countries in wich my girl can be stoned for the terrible crime of bikini wearing...
 
Arabic is the language. Arabia was a foreign place that Bing Crosby danced with Dorthy and Bob. Try calling a guy from Iran Arabian and see what happen.
Been there done that. :(

Why are Egyptians considered to be Arabs and not africans

Why are Egyptians considered to be Arabs and not africans


Egyptians know that they are in the continent of Africa and that they are Africans.
Some Egyptians are much darker skinned than African Americans and even some West Africans and that is a fact if you have traveled extensively in Egypt you will see.

Egyptians sometimes do not at all consider themselves as Arabs and that is more prevalent among the Christians or Jews of Egypt.

However, in Islam the one who speaks Arabic is considered to be an Arab. Somalis are in the Arab league and so are Moroccans while Ethiopians are not in the Arab league.

Ethiopians do not speak Arabic but then again neither do Somalis most of the time but both countries are so close.

Moroccans call themselves Africans while most North Africans and East Africans who maybe ethnic Arabs do consider themselves as Africans.

Arab language, culture and blood is definitely in the Egyptian people, some are also Nubians who are not Arabs but Africans that exist in both Egypt and Sudan and thought they may speak Arabic they do not consider themselves as Arabs and they speak their own language too.

I think that the situation is that Egyptians are very proud people and they know that Egypt(though is not the original name of that area)they are part of the most ancient peoples in Africa and on Earth in general and they want to be especially recognized for that and the reputation of Ancient Egypt.
