We all Hate Farouk Hosni
The Big Pharaoh | We all Hate Farouk Hosni
Right after Egypt's culture minister Farouk Hosni called the hair cover "a step backwards", the Muslim Brotherhood and religious personalities around the Arab world lept and called for his sacking. Not wanting to be left out, and not wanting to be seen as doing nothing to defend "Islam's great symbol", the ruling party also joined the Farouk Hosni bashing party....
My guess is that Farouk Hosni will be sacked or forced to resign unless his friend, the first lady, weighs in. The NDP, acknowledging the ground it lost to the Muslim Brotherhood, is starting to feel the pulse of the street and understand that Egyptians are now embracing something they didn't know 40 or 50 years ago.
The hair cover has become to Islam what a hymen is to a virgin.
