1) In 2050 Egypt will have 165mln people and assuming its economy will continue growing, it will turn into a massive power. ---To give you the sense of how big Egypt can become in the next 20-30 years---look...
As of 2006 US gave Israel a total of 140bln dollars in 2003 dollars...Now 140bln in 2003 dollars is equivalent to 200bln in 2021 dollars after adjusting for inflation. Then in the period 2006-2021 another 60bln$ was given to Israel by US.
So in total US gave Israel 260bln$
