The funny thing is that Israel is in new talks with Hamas in Gaza and Hamas is in effect, the muslim brotherhood. I think the Israelis just recognize a certain stability that they aren’t going to find with an ever shifting Egypt.
Despite the fantasies of some, the muslim brotherhood isn’t going away. Its one of the largest if not THE largest multinational islamic groups. In fact, its pretty unlikely that they’ll be out of power in Egypt for long. Mubarak had his boot on their neck from the beginning but they’ve grown and won’t be controlled effectively.
If we hadn't played the Islamists game, but that isn't want Ubama and the eliets wanted, now Israel and your typical Egyptian is caught in the middle.
No the Brotherhood won't be going away, but neither will their opponents, I worry about a very real chance of Civil War in Egypt, we are almost here, that would be 2 Civil Wars going on at Israel's North and South border.
I can't shake the idea that this is what Ubama wants to get back at Israel, think about how unstable your country is when your neighbors are at war.
