One of the driving forces behind it was actor/comedian Mohamed Sobhi, who starred in the series.
Today, he is telling Egyptian media how important that series was.
He told Youm7 that the success of the series "Knight Without a Horse" is not in the number of people who watched it, but in the fact that (he claims) the series caused two million Egyptian citizens to purchase copies of the book "The Protocols of the Elders of Zion," to see for themselves whether Sobhi's thesis - that Jews have already succeeded in 19 of the 24 protocols, and the rest are being implemented at this very moment - is true.
