You asked If Egypt got talented people like Singers, Doctors, Scientists, Languages, Schools, Artists, and Actors... Here are some examples:
1- Naguib Mahfouz the Nobel Prize winner in Literature.
2- Ahmed Zewail the Nobel Prize winner in Chemistry. He discovered the nano second; you can find more details about him in the official Nobel web site
3- Farouk El Baz he is Research Professor and Director of the Center for Remote Sensing at Boston University, Boston MA, U.S.A. He worked in NASA and participated in the APOLLO Program as Supervisor of Lunar Science Planning; you can find more details about him in here
4- Sir Magdi Yakoub is one of the world's leading heart surgeons. He was knighted in 1992 by HM Queen Elizabeth II.
You asked "Do Egyptians have big Schools like Lebanon? KASLIK, American University in Beirut, and more! Do you know any other language that Arabic"....
We got the CAC "Cairo American College", AUC "American University in Cairo", the French University and the German University…
As for actors and singers I don't have the time to tell you about all of them... just switch to any Arabic movie channel!

thanks 2 u 2 david
well we all knew that about egypt, but... although egypt is so arabic and has so much to give and already gave a lot, but have you noticed that egyptians dont mix with arabs. notice that in thier movies, if you are not egyptian, you are a sex model. if you are not egyptian you are made fun off
. notice how they make fun of other arabic languages. i have so many egyptian friends, when i talk in lebanese, they have no idea what i say!!!
i agree egypt is great and has a great history, but we shall not forget that it is not only egypt that is so high up.
i was in egypt last summer, although i enjoyed my time, but i found the people there have very limited knowledge of other arabic countries around.you can say like people in the usa has no idea about the life in lebanon. some still think we ride camels. (i have not seen one camel in lebanon).
after all, we are all arabs and god bless.
to carly and all those against egypt:
I GUESS U'VE NVR BEEN TO EGYPT IF UR SAYING THAT!!
egypt is known to be one of the best arab countries
ya we do know other languages than arabic and as a prrof samy and i are talking to u in english!
we have things that u dnt have and would nevvvvver dream of having!
we have uni. from all over the world
and we have alot of lebanese ppl living here
we are civilised and we dnt just keep shouting 4 no reason
and WE RESPECT OTHER'S OPINION
i was really ofended when i read ur comment
but still i guess u said all that coz u were offended too(dunno y)
thanks TOTO 4 ur outstanding comment
i was really touched
me:
well we're proud of being egyptian nth more nth less
well i bet ur friends were only joking
and if they're making fun of ur accent it dznt mean that they're showing off or that they're making fun of the whole country just as it dznt mean that we think too highly of ourselves!
take things easily
if sm1 made fun of the lebanese accent infront of me i wouldnt leave them
but believe me we never mean anything and we dnt have limited knowledge
dnt judge a book by its title!
they teach us stuff about u b4 we learn anything
coz at the end we're all the MIDDLE EAST and we all speak the same language and have the same religion, we're all neighbours!(that goes to u too carly)
me ,
I generally understanmd you but ,
as to make fun , we (sometimes) even make fun ourselves , we are the kind of people who love to smile and be happy and be sure that there no offense in our jokes that may concern other people
As to me , i like almost all arab countries ;
-Saudia Arabia :is no doubt the most beloved country to me (Religion , Economy)
-Emirates : which i condider the most beautiful arab country - i used to respect Shiekh Zayed alot
-It's very much considered here that having a contract in any Gulf country is a very great and pleasent opportunity ,
100s of thousands of Egyptians had this chance and many of them still work there happily and effeciently
-Lebanon : geographically in the center of Arab world but also emotionally Lebanon is within our hearts (Regardless any difference in demographics or traditions or whatever , there's always that bond connecting us)
-Although i don't know very much about Morroco (which i've to admit) but i like this country
-I also feel sympathy to Algeria
-GENERALLY , if we don't know so much about every Arab country ,this is NOT necessary means that we neglect this country
Actually am a paletenian who is born and raised in Jordan which i love and adore as much as i love palestine that i visited only once ....
I love both Lebanon and Masr & have freinds in both countries ...

Ahmad Zoueil invented the nanosecond?
Pardon me?
So what you're saying is that he multiplied 1 second by 10 to the power of -9 and suddenly HE invented that? so if I multiply 1 second by 10 to the power of -26, I can say that I invented it? You can't invent something that was already there, let alone a fraction of time.
That point been made, can we egyptians rightfully take credit for the acomplishments of Ahmad Zoueil? he went to the states because we did not give him an opportunity to grow and expand on his knowledge and studies in terms of advanced research. Magdy Yaqoub would still be making peanuts in some rundown Cairo hospital if he didn't get his chance in England.
Farouk El-Baz???? Let's not even go there.
Other than Neguib mahfouz, all these other people are not egyptians. All of Neguib's works were inspired by our society. Nothing was of foreign influence. The others, in my opinion are foreigners; americans and britons, who happen to be of Egyptian origin and background, so what?
And I've found many more successful Lebanese here in Canada than Egyptians.
I would love to see the arab nation rise up as one. But what we lack most are leaders. We don't need more artists or scientists or doctors working abroad all fat and happy making themselves rich. We need more leaders trying to work for the good cause, leading nations, good journalists, writers, doctors in war-torn countries.
TOTO, you are dead on with all of your points.
Ya salam if all arabs would think like you and me......
Excuse me but ,
How could i forgot Palestin !!!!
Egypt and Palestin have the same distiny , we love Palestin with all our hearts and we are ready to die for them
Hi my freinds
ARABS ARE NOTHING WITHOUT EGYPT. And EGYPT is nothing without arab. I'm sure we all love Egypt and no body can ignore the important place of egypt in the arabic world. But our destiny is the same look at Europe even France with the strong culture can't do anything by her self they need it to unite to accomplish good thing. Look at us arab we will be strong when we finish to have fun of other arabic country and we stop comparing my country is better than yours. We need to be one or other wise we are done.
i dont mean to offend anyone or the person that posted the aricle. i am very much aware and proud as an arab of egypt's and other arab country's accomplishments, but this is a website in which all kinds of arabs visit and we need an article that would UNITE us and divide us, specially in the critical situation we stand in during these times.

To fetfet:
what you said is absolutly perect !!!
to fetfet,
Stop sending stupid messages.
I like Egypt but why r u saying "we are nothin without u" , are u providing us air?? money???
Yay! Egypt☺☻♥ But go all Arab countries! Arabs are the best..!♥☻☺
Houssam understand my message before you answer. I like egypt too. first what's without U. I know egypt can survive without Me it's not what i meant. France to can survive without Europe. I can survive alone in deserted island that's ok but it will be better to have people with me. One brain can accomplish something but many brain can accomplish many thing. And if you find what i say stupid that's your opinion. But first you have to learn how to give your opinion without insulting other people that will be a great step for you.
What’s up with S.A there not fair at all? amani had 2 sing again cause she forget the words I cant stand her . And have u guys realized that in ever prime katia has all the attention. And who is the guests? I heard is Sabah what is the old lade doing there? yeh she was great one day but no she cant sing no more what ever. Katia u needs 2 grow up Haney. Zizi and ahmed are the best.
to anyone who loves egypt thanks alot .
to anyone who hates egypt , you must first look at your country before you say any sigle word on egypt .
the people who is saying that arab are nothing without egypt it's wrong opnion .
Any country has many things to proud of & to shame of, but i belive that egypt has a heaps of things to proud of more than any arabic country.
to carly i haven't read your comment, but about speaking french in lebanon ,it's not something to proud of, cause you got this language from the french occupation.
american don't speak any other language , french German , most of euorpe(the greatest countries in the world)
i wanna say small story for shrief your opnion is individual opnion,you said that lebanese are better in canda , i live in australia you can come here by yourself & see how they're (sorry rubbish )destroying the country .
there are 15 million outside lebanon , they're doing nothing in allover the world.
look at your country , it's in serious shit right now & before as well. finally lebanese remembered to liberate thier country & they gonna liberate it by american support .
ssssss,
You're wrong. American people strugle quite a bit to learn a foreign language. Believe me bec I live in the USA and I teach both French and Spanish. A recent study have shown that Lebanese citizens in the USA are the first among arabic people to hold important jobs followed by egyptians. DO NOT FORGET however that Lebanon is a tiny country in comparison to Egypt (3.5 vs 70 million). Regarding the shit that Lebanon is in right now. This shit was caused by our arab neighbors. We would have been a lot better if they have not interfered and sometimes even occupied us. Yesterday, according to the Boston Globe, 2 million people demonstrated to regain their freedom. Do not even dare to say they did this bec of American support. All the members of my family (including my handicaped aunt) went to the demonstration. This was the largest demonstration in the middle east. It is like having 35 million egyptian demonstrating for their freedom. I am going to remind everyone that Lebanon is one of the few arabic countries that maintained a democratic political system even in the middle of the war. We have never had the same president for more than 8 years. In comparison to other arabic coutries, that's wonderful. I forgot, but for how long has Mubarak been the president of egypt? I have nothing against the other arabic countries. They should stop however insulting Lebanon and Lebanese people should not insult other arabic countries. By the way, Egyptians are very nice and funny and I like them.
well , actually l agree with you david but in my point of view this comment is kind of racism and discrimination , in my opinion we should not waste our time arguing regarding to this comment , we should be proud of our talented youth arab singers , ultimately one of us will win.
cheers
Please stop this comparaison between countries, every country has good things and bad things, and has each beauty which is different than others.
we should develop ourselves as ARAB PEOPLE, not destroy ourselves by attacking, comparing and insulting each other (by saying who is better than who).
Grow-up, and stop it.
by the way we love all ARAB PEOPLE here in EGYPT, and no one is better than anyone, we r all brothers, but we hope that no one insult us or our country, or starting a campain by attacking us.

i forgot to say:
YOU ARE ALL WELCOMED HERE IN EGYPT IN ANY TIME
I'm from UK but live in cairo I think that egypt is a Great country and Egyptians are a great people it's not a small country or new country like other arab countrys you talking from , Egypt teached the world meaning of humanity and it's unfair to put egypt in the categroy of the arab littel countrys , so a lot respect when you talk about Egypt I also apperciate some arab country like lebanon & syria & jordon & tunisia & morocco but I think the arabin gulf countrys can't even read this.
hey hey hey
well thanks 4 saying that about egypt
but believe gulf countries are great
and they're well educated and well mannered and everything
well i adore all the arab countries even tho i've never been to all
but like i am glad that we all love each other(the majority actully)
we all see the good points in each other and the bad points
my country has good points and bad points
and thats why we should unite
to help each other get over it, and become better
we should learn 4rm eachother
u know what
when sm1 from outside of egypt does smth good, i really feel proud as if sm1 egyptian did it!
u should allllll feel the same
and we should allll get to know eachother well and become friends
hope u reply soon:)
TO EVERYONE:
I DO NOT KNOW WHY THEY MADE OF MY POST ONE NEW DISCUSSION, BUT IT MUST MEAN THAT MY WORDS REALLY AFFECTED ALL OF YOU! HOWEVER, I AM A LITTLE BIT SAD OF THE RACISM THAT IS HAPPENING ON THIS SITE: INDEED, MY SIDE OF THE STORY WAS NOT POSTED ON THE MAIN PAGE, BUT ONLY THE ONE THAT DEFENDS EGYPT! I AM SORRY, BUT THIS IS NOT FAIR BECAUSE THIS SITE IS SUPPOSE TO BE FOR ALL ARABS!
I HAVE NOTHING AGAINST EGYPT, INDEED, I REALLY LIKE IT AND I PLAN TO VISIT IT ONE DAY! LAST YEAR, I WANTED ATTIEH TO WIN STAR ACADEMY BECAUSE HE DESERVED IT AND HE WAS EGYPTIAN!
NOW, I DO NOT KNOW WHY THIS DISCUSSION WENT FROM STAR ACADEMY 2 TO COUNTRIES. I JUST CANT STAND ZIZI, AND I LOVE KATIA! WE ALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO SHARE OUR OPINIONS, BUT I AM SORRY, IF SOMEONE STARTS TALKING BAD ABOUT MY PEOPLE OR MY COUNTRY, IT IS MY DUTY TO DEFEND IT AND THAT'S WHAT I DID!
AS FOR PEOPLE CALLING ME PSYCHO, I JUST KNOW THAT U KNOW THAT U R WRONG BECAUSE IF I AM ONE, THEN Y R U TALKING TO ME! I WONT JUDGE U, BUT ONE DAY U WILL REGRET ALL THE NAMES U R CALLING EVERYONE! AND BEFORE TALKING, THINK IF UR NOT A PSYCHO URSELF BECAUSE U R THE ONE WHO KEEPS ON TALKING ABOUT IT! TELL ME, R U SCARED OF PSYCHOSSS????
TO FADIA:
I AGREE 100% WITH YOUR POST!
THANKS!
Carly I agree with you.............sorry WALEG but i have to say that there is something wrong here,you are not fair.......it seems that you are taking side what you shouldn't do.
each country is unique and FOR ALL here you should focus on STARAC(this what is about) and not on insulting each other.
I don't like zizi(i liked here in the beginning) but now she is acting like a little jealous girl,she looks stupid and she doesn't deserve to win(even if last year we were happy to see ATTYEH win).Bashar G.,Ahmad H. or Katia should win.
Sorry for those who don't like Katia.
I am from LEBANON,I love my country like everyone and I think that ARAB PEOPLE should stop this stupid fight,like who is better than who.
SEE YA ALL.......
carly
dont pretend that you are a victim .
you switched from loving and hating a student to another issue which is
you dont have american schools in egypt and you dont have another languages than arabic which is not true at all .
we cant count the international schools in egypt (american- french - german)
and regarding the english , you can see the poor person who owns the camels in the pyramids side know english , french , german , italian , japanese also ... etc
so you was totally wrong .
EGYPT IS THE CENTER OF MIDDLE EAST YOU AGREE OR NOT I DON"T CARE BECAUSE THE WORLD KNOW THAT , AND TO MAGDA I THINK YOU SHOULD THINK OF YOU AND ALL EGYPTIANS AS AN EGYPTIAN ONLY AND BE PROUD OF THAT BECAUSE THE ARAB(NATIONALTY)WELL NOT PROVIDE YOU WITH ANYTHING BUT NOT AT ALL BECAUSE EGYPT ORIGINALLY IS NOT AN ARABIC COUNTRY.
PROUDLY EGYPTIAN:
I AM NOT A VICTIM HERE, NO ONE IS! I DO NOT WANT TO BE A VICTIM, AND A VICTIM OF WHAT R U TALKING ABOUT?
I SWITCHED THE SUBJECT BECAUSE IF U CAN READ,U WOULD SEE THAT SOMEONE WAS TALKING SHIT ABOUT LEBANON AND LEBANESE PEOPLE SO I HAD TO DEFEND MY COUNTRY! DIDNT U JUST DID THAT?
ALL OF US THINK OUR COUNTRY IS THE BEST, AND EVERY COUNTRY HAS ITS GOOD AND BAD SIDES. AND BECAUSE I AM A LEBANESE, I WILL ALWAYS BELIEVE THAT LEBANON IS THE BEST WHETHER YOU AGREE WITH ME OR NOT!
I AM PROUD TO BE A LEBANESE!
LEBANON RULES!
Good one carly!!!
I am a "proudly lebanese" too............
