Isaiah 19 4-8
5 The waters of the river will dry up,
and the riverbed will be parched and dry.
6 The canals will stink;
the streams of Egypt will dwindle and dry up.
The reeds and rushes will wither,
7 also the plants along the Nile,
at the mouth of the river.
Every sown field along the Nile
will become parched, will blow away and be no more.
8 The fishermen will groan and lament,
all who cast hooks into the Nile;
those who throw nets on the water
will pine away.
and the riverbed will be parched and dry.

Neither Christians, nor secular persons can live in the same state as fanatics. The radicals are trying to get their own way -- everyone else opposes this. The former have already come to power; this needs to be admitted; but they do not have full authority -- they share power with other forces. Hence all the continuing unrest -- it stems from the fanatics` desire to seize power completely.
It is against this background that certain other events that blow the situation apart, like some football match, periodically occur. And now the latest upsurge in violence. It is easy to explode the situation in Egypt .
I do not rule out the beginning of a civil war here, though equally things could not flare up on a large scale. We know from history that to overthrow one regime and establish another it is by no means necessary to seize the entire country. For example, in 1917, it took only St Petersburg . A similar scenario is entirely possible in Egypt too.
One thing is clear: The end of the country`s stability has arrived, the situation is no longer normalizing, and we will no longer see Egypt as it was before. Tourists will go there until they are actively blown up or shot.
It is impossible, however, to say absolutely definitely when global changes will occur in the country. But everything is heading toward this: toward civil war, the Islamization of the Army, a strike on Israel and defeat, and a water crisis during which there will not even be enough water for the population. All this is only a matter of time. Egypt`s development is heading only in one direction.
