Animal Rights in Egypt; Daily News Article by Sara Abou Bakr
http://www.dailynewsegypt.com/2013/09/21/animal-rights-in-egypt/
Animals, just like humans in Egypt, are not faring very well, but the main difference is that they cannot speak for themselves.
In Egypt, there are laws protecting the environment, but are not implemented.
Even more important is the education of the young generation on animal rights. Syllabi of environmental awareness and animal care, as well as their religious duty towards animals, have to be introduced in schools, public and private, to ensure that the new generation of Egyptians are aware of the responsibility they have towards their environment. Such people are more than likely to grow up to be balanced individuals.
Animal rights are not a luxury, and in building a new, modern Egypt, all rights have to be safeguarded, especially of those who do not speak.

Egyptians are not Arabs, they are Egyptians.
Reblogged from Mathilda's Anthropology Blog.:
Modern Upper Egyptians
A strange title for a blog entry I know. But this is a result of a little nosing through the DNA studies available of modern Egypt, and some irritation at modern Egyptians being incessantly called 'thieving Arabs' by on-line Afrocentrists.
This is more focussed on the Egyptians around Luxor, where old upper Egypt was located. A recent DNA study by Cruciani…
