I honestly think the Egyptians are rebelling against Islam...at least the political part of it they don’t want. Not sure how they can seperate the two though...
..Maybe better to say these Muslims are rather like the Catholic by name only that are in America. ..but have no intentions of practicing it actually.
Perhaps there are more like that in Egypt now...but I have to say...the Brotherhood has a huge foothold in the nation...they aren’t going to go away even if Morsi falls....they want Egypt and the Billions of dollars flooding in there.
You are doing an amazing job here! I did read some of your stuff yesterday before running out to a graduation party, and because of you, I was able to tell folks what was unfolding.
The photos are jaw dropping.
Yes it’s history, my issue is simply exhaustion from so much history being made in the last 5 years, none of it good!
I pray this one turns the corner for something positive.
“I honestly think the Egyptians are rebelling against Islam...at least the political part of it they don’t want. Not sure how they can seperate the two though...”
It was always separate. Egypt was criticized by Saudi Arabia for not cutting hands and feet! Nasser put the sheikhs in mosques and forbade them from talking politics...say what you want about religion but no politics!
“I have to say...the Brotherhood has a huge foothold in the nation...they aren’t going to go away even if Morsi falls....they want Egypt and the Billions of dollars flooding in there.”
I think I wrote up thread that the MB hardcore killers are a few hundred thousands in a 90 million population. They are a minority of a minority. They’ll be fleeing or else. Jail, execution for atrocities against Egyptians, especially in the Sinai.
Yesterday in northern Sinai, a police major was ambushed and assassinated in his official car on his way home. Palestinian and/or Egyptian Hamas/Ikhwan were responsible. Three suspects were arrested.
The Ikhwan party was outlawed in Egypt for over 80 years until the fall of Mubarak. They’ll be outlawed again in the coming period.
I bet you all their bigwigs are on their way out to exile, NEVER TO COME BACK.
Maybe I’m an optimist. Time will tell.
