I don't know, sir.

Look at Syria. How can you explain that not only the Free Syrian Army, but also prominent warlords despise the Brotherhood if all they want is to escape poverty by seeking refuge in "religion"?

Take Salafist Abu Issa for instance.

Or Jamal Maarouf.

Not to escape poverty, but to seek solace and meaning. This has always been a prime motivation for political behavior. Even Sam Adams the great American propagandist and ardent revolutionary was motivated by a fervor to reestablish a bygone Puritanism in New England. Anyway time will tell.
