I'm in Qena, a city in upper Egypt.

أهلا وسهلا يا محمود

It's great to have you here. You're certainly our first Egyptian poster! Smiley

Thanks a lot, it's great to be here, I've learnt quite a lot in the past days about elections process around the world Smiley
And where did you learn Arabic? Wink

أنا طالب في جامعة وارسو وأدرس اللغة العربية هناك

I'm still learning, actually, so please forgive any errors Smiley

Outside of MSA, I'll have Egyptian Arabic next year.

Well, I guess the only good thing, considering who's in the runoff, is that the Egyptian people were at least able to make a free decision, instead of voting in yet another referendum to give Mubarak another term.

Of course, 2005 election was a joke. Btw, I remember reading somewhere that Nasser, before his death, promised to have an open presidential election "once results of the 1967 defeat are liquidated".

He's the only leftist likely to win there and Nasserism sh**ts all over the other options.
Yes, let's wipe Israel off the map! And didn't Morsy promise democracy? It seems like he won't turn into a dictator or anything.

First of all, Nasserism is something far more complex.

Second of all, war of 1967 happened well over 40 years ago.

Yeah, that was really really really stupid. But I would like a winner to keep the peace treaty, and I trust Morsi to do that more than Sabbahi.

Even the Muslim Brotherhood is favoring honoring the peace treaty.

The people of Egypt had spoken and their choice must be respected by the rest of the world.

I really hope my scepticism toward Mursi will be disproven. I really hope.
