There's also the fact that Egypt is the biggest grain importer in the world and two of the largest grain exporters, Russia and India both banned a large amount of exports due to natural disasters in their own countries.

Canada and Australia also are two large grain exporters that suffered from natural disasters that damaged their crop.

I don't think blaming it on dem evil capitalists is going to work this time.

And food was not the reason for what is happening in Egypt.
Brutality is.The economy is a small factor that they rightly blame on Government Corruption.
