There is still Gamal, who was actually being groomed to succeed his father; but nobody’s trying to help him, obviously.
No, the MB and the military—especially since they are being led by generals picked by Morsi, especially Sisi—are an equal evils to each other. Sisi is a radical with a vision of turning Egypt into a ecclesiocratic military dictatorship. And it seems that the masses in Tahrir Square chanting “To Jerusalem we go, martyrs in the millions” have been quickly forgotten; one only has to go to Youtube to be reminded of just how Islamic the majority of Egyptians are.
“No, the MB and the military—especially since they are being led by generals picked by Morsi, especially Sisi—are an equal evils to each other.”
What part of there are only two choices don’t you understand? There is no third option. However, there actually is one, further down the road. After the Egyptian army gets rid of the MB as much as possible, and bans them from politics, then there will be new elections in the future with an elected civilian gov’t taking over. It may take a while, to make sure the MB is irradicated as a political party, but it will happen.
Were the MB to be put back in charge, there would be no future elections at all. And that would guarantee another political revolution in the future. Endless turmoil for Egypt, or a sharia law dictatorship with no democracy in sight at all if the MB were to succeed in turning Egypt into an Islamic terrorist state. Now, stop being a contrarian with no answer or plan at all for Egypt. You just end up sounding like an ignoramous and a johnny one note.
No, they're NOT.
Maybe they're equal in an wishful ideological world in that all authoritarian governments are equally evil. That's a given.
But in Realville, Egypt, the two sides are not equally evil. The Muslims are on fiery, murderous rampages in the Christian communities as we speak. The military is not targeting Christians...only the Brotherhood terrorists.
The military will not tolerate the Muslim religious savagery such as beheadings, suicidal bombings, stoning and other abuses of women, etc. They have no history of this.
The Egyptian people simply want to get back to normal. For instance, being a nation of many shopkeepers and small entrepeneurs, these citizens want to get back to work so the tourists eventually return. A huge hunk of Egypt's economy depends on tourism.
Do you think the tourists would EVER return with the Muslim Brotherhood and Sharia law in control? Believe me, they'll take the Generals' interim governance any day over that of perpetual despotism by crazy Imams and their violent cultist followers.
No, the two sides may be not be to the liking of the free world, but only one is going to come out on top....and you can't use moral equivalency to put them in the same category, because they're not in this particular case.
Therefore, at this point, we are wise to side with the military, or at the least, keep our snoots out of the fray. The military will prevail in the long or short run, anyhow, you can rest assured.
