Giant Egyptian flag banner strung between "The Saints" Church and the Mosque across the street in Alexandria. The symbolism is amazing. This was the same Church which was bombed last month because "someone" was trying to inflame religious strife between Muslims and Christians in Egypt. But at last, the true nature of the Egyptian people prevails. I learned first hand in the last few weeks that we all see the best out of each other when the toughest times put us to the test. This was true in Cairo, in Alexandria, and here in Columbus Ohio as well. Simply put: Egypt wouldn't be Egypt without both it's Muslims and it's Christians, that's what makes us great!
This blog is inspired by, and dedicated to the brave bloggers of Egypt who literally risked their lives to speak their minds and to expose to the world the truth. The end result? They initiated the spark which led their country to freedom, set them on the road to democracy, and inspired others to do the same.
