He'll convince the new regime that he's indispensable.
Something is wrong here. War, disease, death, destruction, hunger, filth, poverty, torture, crime, corruption, and the Ice Capades. Something is definitely wrong. This is not good work. If this is the best God can do, I am not impressed.

But it's the people who decide now whose face they like and don't like. And as far as I recall, Zahi has been in his Mubarak approved office for the past 20 years or so. His face is just as much a part (and thus a symbol) of the Mubarak era and regime as Mubarak's itself. And therefore untenable.

Maybe he can become a tour guide at the British Museum? He knows some of that stuff, doesn't he? He could have his lunch break on a bench in Hyde Park with Al Fayed (just imagine that scene :lol: ).
