American-Egyptian author Aladdin Elaasar: A Psychic, or a modern-day Nostradamus who saw it coming in Egypt?
Award-winning and best-selling American author Aladdin Elaasar wrote The Last Pharaoh: Mubarak and the Uncertain Future of Egypt in the Obama Age. In this banned book by the Mubarak regime, he predicted precisely what did unfold in Egypt and what might follow. His book was called prophetic. He previously predicted the fall of Saddam Hussein in another banned book. He also predicted the fall of General Musharraf in Pakistan, General Bin Ali in Tunisia, and others. Is he a psychic, a modern day Nostradamus, or simply a scholar and expert with deep understanding of the region with a clear vision? In 2005, Aladdin Elaasar was nominated as a candidate for the presidential elections in Egypt in 2005. His campaign gained worldwide media coverage.
