The trees massacre

I hate it so much when the municipal workers come and begin to cut off the trees in our streets for no freaking reason.

They cut hundred years old trees for no good reason except for security reason , yes for security reasons.

I witness these aggressions on the trees two days before Mubarak or his wife Suzanne’s visits to different areas , especially in Zamalak or in Agouza , when Mubarak went to inaugurate the army hospital at Agouza after the improvements , they had to cut almost all the trees in the area for security reasons.

Ironically at the same time they cut the trees ,they decorate the street with flowers pots !!??

Take look below to these photos I took in Agouza to the trees in the Cornish , along the Nile street , already these trees are so old , some of them are hundred years old.

They are either cut but continued to grow again amazingly in a way that reminds me with Egypt again ,how it revives from the ashes or they are either cut and completely destroyed . Ironically the municipal workers could not remove the trunk !!
