Egyptian Arrested for 'Loving Israel' Egyptian authorities have arrested a local resident for “loving Israel,” the Al-Masry Al-Youm newspaper reported on Sunday. According to the report, the 24-year-old was arrested in the Sohag governorate in southern Egypt. He was arrested for allegedly writing to Israeli nationals through Facebook and criticizing Egypt and Egyptians as well as declaring his love for the Jewish state. Major General Ibrahim Saber, Sohag security chief, was notified of the arrest of the 24-year-old who allegedly has a tattoo of the Star of David on his arm, according to Al-Masry Al-Youm.

I know the above isn't a notable end times story, but I find it interesting.
In prophesy, don't the Egyptians end up okay, as friends of Israel?

There's these verses that I can think of:
"24 In that day Israel will be one of three with Egypt and Assyria—a blessing in the midst of the land, 25 whom the Lord of hosts shall bless, saying, “Blessed is Egypt My people, and Assyria the work of My hands, and Israel My inheritance.”" - Isaiah 19:24-25 (NKJV)
Israel and the Jewish people have people that love them all over the world. Even non-Christians. I have an acquaintance that is the biggest lover of Israel and the Jewish people that I've ever seen, and he's neither Jewish or Christian. He's been like that pretty much since I met him a few years ago. I don't know what sparked his love for Israel, though.

BJ I wouldn't doubt it if this love he has for Israel just might be something the Lord is preparing him for in the near future. The spark I believe was put there by the Lord...my opinion only.

Well, I don't know if the Lord has a certain plan in mind for him, but if that's the case I'm sure he will be in good hands.
