The worst cesspools I have ever been to are Djibouti and Egypt. Filthy, stinking, miserable places with very corrupt people.
My brother took his girlfriend on a cruise ship tour of Egypt 2 years ago. The big boat went up and down the Nile. The ship was Swedish [white people] immaculately clean great food etc. He said everything in Egypt was a stinking cesspool. He said the filthy slums of Cairo stretch right to the pyramids and it is hard to get a shot of the pyramids without including horrid sh*t stinking shacks of The Muslimes of Cairo.
He said the pyramids could have been built by Norwegians, might have been UFO aliens, but no way these Egyptians are descended from the builders of the pyramids.
