Okay, I am a crazyass committing suicide!

There is an Arabic proverb that says "What's prohibited is always desired"... I have proved it to be true. Yesterday night, I made myself a splendid meal of spicy chicken and macarooni and this morning I have eaten eggs on breakfast. In Aswan on my way to Philae Temple I bent out of the boat and drank directly from the Nile and believe it or not, it tasted better than the water I drink at home.

My brother called me a crazyass, and my neighbour believes I am commtting slow suicide... Well, whatever... I won't give in to butchers' greed who doubled the prices of their meat, or to vain fears of getting infected through eating chicken or birds.

The problem is that people's panic doesn't only affect chicken and bird sellers, but also those who sell anything that contains eggs in their ingredients. No wonders the Egyptian stock market is going down terribly.

Ironically, Egypt never imported birds or chicken as it was a self-sufficient industry. Now it is falling down, and I am expecting the day when Egypt adds chicken and birds to its long list of imported products.

Whisper: It is not bird flu, it is ignorance flu.

Why can´t people realise it is most more likely to be killed in traffic than ever being infected with the bird flu when you are a human being?

An the risk of dying IF you are unfortunate enough to get infectet is microscopic?

I am not only talking about Egytians now. A lot of Danes have turned away from eating chicken and eggs even thoug this has almost nothing to do with the ways of getting infected - even if you are a chicken or just poultry yourself.

The problem with drinking water is not an issue here. We don´t get our drinking water from lakes og rivers; but from wells in the underground.

On the run sells chicken sandwiches without mayonaise, cause mayo is made from eggs, so it's dangerous. But not the chicken. Never the chicken.

People are soooo stupid!

Jimmy, bravo! I applaud your suicide attempt.

I'm going on a eat-your-chicken crusade this weekend, calling all my friends and family in Egypt to tell them to eat chicken and take advantage of the low prices.

Thanks a million

and i guess if we all turned into informers of Islam to the West, such cartoons will be the things that will be mocked and not our dear religion
