What is happening in Egypt should not be seen independently of its overpopulation.
Egypt’s population is well beyond its carrying capacity. Its population is 67 million. Its carrying capacity is 6 million.
This puts extreme pressure on all systems and things start to break down.
In the past Egypt adopted a deliberate anti-birth-control policy.
The consequences may be playing out now.
Overpopulation is catastrophic.
The Nile is also in trouble from climate change.
Egypt is only an example of what the world is facing.
