Egypt prepares for Obama address to world's Muslims
Staff Reporter | Posted June 2, 2009 9:00 PMU.S. President Barack Obama will speak to the world's Muslims on Thursday in a much anticipated address from Cairo University in Egypt.
"Barack Obama will hopefully speak about the actions he plans to take to make the Middle East, the Arab World and the whole world better, and God willing it will work," one student told the Voice of America in the video below."
Meanwhile, Al Jazeera news network is asking viewers what they expect to hear from the American president in his speech to the Arab world. In the video below, the news agency asks viewers to send in their comments.
And of course, no major international event with Obama would be complete without entrepreneurs attempting to capitalize on the young president's popularity, even in Egypt.
In another news video, Reuters reports on a bazaar in Egypt that is selling Obama-themed memorabilia depicting the president as the new King Tutankhamun, the boy king from thousands of years ago.
