Temple of Debod!!!


today i have learned the weirdest thing i was watching google screensaver (look it up,niiice) anyway

it displayed an image which looked like an Egyptian temple AND the sentence has a comma and then Madrid!!!

i waited for the images to have a full cycle and the image was redisplayed and it said Temple of Debod so i went to google to search what is that

my best guess at this time was that it is a joke or some weird Amon priest has traveled to spain or exiled

but i found out that it was a GIFT to Spain and not during the Egyptian Kingdom when we're a republic in 1968 as a tribute to their help moving Temples during the high dam period

is it just me who didn't know (yeah i usually don't know things like that) or this is something that is being hid (not like the mesalla in US)

this is happening since the start of the 19th century (M. Aly, Ismail, Fouad, Farouk, Nasser, Sadat..)

if you are following up these days with the issue of Neffertiti you will feel how much we are cheap. They dont even allow us to have the statue displayed in Egypt (now in Germany) for 3 months!!

OUR F@#% STATUE IS NOT ALLOWED TO BE DISPLAYED IN OUR F@#% LAND!!!
