The throat -cutting Egyptian minister

Egypt's minister of immigration & expat affairs, Nabila Makram.

She says "Anyone who criticizes Egypt abroad will be cut" with a throat-slitting gesture to an audience of Egyptian-Canadians in Canada, July 22.     That's one sick woman intentionally cracking a bad "joke."

So, are Egyptian journalists abroad supposed to feel more fortunate that at least she didn't tease by brandishing a bone-saw?

US-puppet dictators are getting pluckier by the day.   Nabila Makram, through her gross insinuation, was warning Egyptian Canadians on Canadian soil for freely expressing their political views. Spoken in the form of a sinister joke, this wasn't a joke, it was a menacing ultimatum coming from Sisi's autocratic regime (viewed as "great president" by Donald Trump) less than a year after Jamal Khashoggi's murder by mutilation; it was a message to Egyptian dissidents living abroad that the same can happen to them even if they're living outside Egypt.  If only Ms. Makram realized that she was the one, not the critics, who truly shamed Egypt that evening.   Sisi's henchmen and sycophants back home defended Makram's throat-cutting fantasy dubbing her as a savior of the "sons" of Egypt. The 'mother' of those weird sons should at least learn to keep her trash in her own backyard instead of spewing it elsewhere.

Writes Amr Magdi of Human Rights Watch on Twitter:  “We know well that Ms Nabila Makram is a minister in a government that has already imprisoned tens of thousands of dissidents in addition to the systematic torture and enforced disappearance of critics of her government.  They are not kidding."
