Its important to realize what happened with the “Arab Spring” revolution and why it was so misjudged in the West. It was plain to Western jounalists, diplomats and academics that the recent regimes in Egypt, Libya and Syria were oppressive, non democratic and corrupt. No doubt they liked and sympathized with the educated, articulate opponents they came to know. Of course they cheered when the “revolutions” began and the despots were defeated. However the West has a very limited and poor understanding of the real lives of the masses in North Africa. Most are miserably poor , uneducated, and live in rural backwaters or urban slums. Throughout history such people are motivated and find meaning in their lives through religion. If “democracy” is established in those countries, then leaders wearing the cloak of religious certainty will motivate those people,and will achieve and consolidate power. That is exactly what is happening in Egypt. Morsi with some messy civil disturbances will achieve power. He will do so because unfortunately a clear majority of the newly enfranchised people identify and are motivated by the values of the “Muslim Brotherhood.”
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.
