Honest men amid mob
It's true that Egypt has many great sons who stand alone in the Egyptian history. We may agree or disagree with them, but for sure we do respect and appreciate them as they are great representatives for Egypt.
In the past, Egypt had many great sons like Akhenaten who was the first to believe in monotheism as well as Menes who united upper and Lower Egypt.
In the modern history, there are many great Egyptians like Naguib Mahfouz, who won the Nobel Prize for Literature, Sir Magdi Yacoub and the Nobel Prize winner for scinece, Dr. Ahmed Zewail.
