Carrie fact is, things aren't going to improve in Egypt until the population numbers are reduced. In fact in the whole of Africa, population numbers are going steeply upwards, how are these numbers to be sustained, and with what, at what cost?
The first "revolution" was brought about by food prices, bread, and poverty
This will only get worse as overpopulation increases, prices continue to rise, and water becomes scarcer.
The Nile is the main ( only) source of water, for people to drink, grow food and live.
But the Nile can’t feed everyone these days. There are simply too many Egyptians, already 86 million of them, and another between 1-million and 2-million are being born every year. Egyptian agriculture only produces about half the wheat needed to feed the country. So Egypt imports wheat, lots of it; it is the largest importer of wheat in the world.
As the population increases rapidly in sub Saharan Africa so does need for water. Now the downriver countries, led by Ethiopia, are beginning to push seriously for a revision of the treaty. Being downriver, these countries have Egypt at their mercy. And while they will never stop the river’s flow completely, even a small reduction in the amount of water that makes it to Egypt could prove devastating, directly affecting the amount of food that can be grown and forcing Egypt to import even more of its staples.
There will NEVER be democracy in such a deprived and overpopulated country. Its just not possible. Even if Egypt were still a net energy producer, it would only provide limited relief. The fact they are now net energy importers just makes the overpopulation issue and the instability it cant help but create, worse.
It is one of the first and soon to increase "peak oil"revolutions, and with the fall of Morsi expect to see more radial Islam emerging.
