And alot of people in very high places have alot of dirt on alot of other people in very high places, so theres a very strong incentive against cleaning things up. In order to create a better regime, all of Egypt's most powerful institutions have to change radically. By the way that also goes for countries in the Gulf where alot of the same problems are very prevalent. Think about what it would take to make the government of the UAE one that can truly be held accountable by its people, rather than one where the people are at the mercy of the leaders but depend on the leaders to remain benevolent
and just an fyi, the wire has alot of bad language and a few instances of nudity. But its really the best show on TV

You're right, it's a huge problem in all the Middle East. But I think if you eliminate bribery to begin with, it would be easier to eliminate other forms of corruption. People do get caught accepting bribes in the UAE, and the former General Manager of Dubai Municipality was fired because he was suspected to have accepted a bribe. It brought so much shame on him and his family that he disappeared completely from public life.
I'm pretty sure it's possible to get rid of bribery in Egypt and elsewhere. I'm not saying it's easy, just doable. Change comes one step at a time.
And thanks for the warning. I don't mind bad language because I don't understand all the slang anyway. What's the season that has less nudity?
