There were a lot of neo-Nazis in the U.S., but it was always a fringe movement here. I cannot tell from this article how entrench it is in Egypt. The few Egyptians I have known were, under the surface, absolute anti-Semites (in the sense of “Jew-Haters”).

From PEW RESEARCH... April 25,2011

EXCERPT:

* The United States did not gain much from what happened politically in Egypt. The favorable rating for the U.S. is 20 percent, that’s very low in global terms. It was 17 percent last year.

* When we asked what effect did the U.S. have on the political changes, 39 percent say negative and only 22 percent say positive

* A solid majority of Egyptians, 54 percent to 32 percent, would like to see the longstanding treaty between Israel and Egypt annulled.

* The Muslim Brotherhood is embraced by a very large percentage of the Egyptian public. Thirty-seven percent say they have a very favorable view of them. Thirty-eight percent have somewhat favorable view of them.

* 62 percent saying that they would like to see Egyptian laws strictly follow the Quran. And we found as many 30 percent identify or support Muslim fundamentalists.
