The 26th of July is today!

It's the day in 1956 when president Naser decided that the Suez Canal had to be nationalized.

The man meant well, he thought back then that its income will be going to the poor Egyptians. He didn't know that a bunch of thugs would be putting the money into their own pockets [Roll Eyes]


Enjoy some scenes of Cairo>
