Two Smart Egyptians Fear Future
Can you imagine this? The Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood lied! And can you imagine this: the two civilians who are Egypt’s greatest hope for avoiding an Islamist dictatorship are very worried.
Let’s start with the Brotherhood. First, it promised to run candidates for only one-third of the parliamentary seats, saying this would proof of its moderation and willingness to share power.
But a little later, it raised that number to 50 percent but said that’s all and they wouldn’t run a candidate for president. Again, we were told: they’re moderate!
Next, it created a front party to run a candidate for president. For months the Western media generally told us that this party was independent of the Brotherhood, had split off from the Brotherhood to run a candidate for president. That made this party even more moderate than the moderate Brotherhood.
Finally, now that the media admits this is a Brotherhood-controlled party, it announces, too, that it will run candidates for all the parliamentary seats.
How do we know they are moderate? Well, because they say so. For example, the Brotherhood has announced that it will not run on the slogan, “Islam is the solution!” Their new official slogan is:
Only you would not know that Bolsheviks and Hamas/Islamists are both homicidal totalitarians and so cannot be polar opposites as far as those they oppress are concerned.
Bolsheviks/Bolshevism and Hamas/Jihadist Islam are two polar opposites an Oxynoron suggested by a
OxymoronActually, the ignorant fools like you are the ones who claim to KNOW what is going to happen before it does.
There is no way that the US and EU would support Bolsheviks like you, who are on the same page as Hamas.
America and the Europeans have not only supported Tyrants. dictators and reactionary monarchies in most cases when revolutions overthrew their tyrants for some form of popular rule America opposed the revolutionaries in favor of Our guys in Havana.
Even in Israel America and the Europeans have historically supported the local Bolsheviks over the conservative more democratic so called right wing governments.
You are living in a Pollyanna Bubble but having Vinnie for a friend explains many things. 🙂
There is finally conclusive evidence that Osama bin Laden and Muammar Gaddafi are dead. Yesterday, they both registered to vote in Chicago.
Only ignorant fools believe that:
The fools are those who try and stem the tide of freedom and democracy from dictatorial tyrants. What the population then decides to do with their freedom is another matter. Most populations do not willingly swap one tyranny for another.
You have no way of knowing that. You cannot logically want freedom and democracy for yourself and a dictatorial tyranny for others.
The next we’ll hear, is that the Brotherhood has violently overthrown the government, and promises to be moderate.
