Egypt's future

Reader comment on item: Are Egypt's Islamists Heading for a Fall?

Submitted by promesa (South Korea), Feb 23, 2012 at 01:03

Egypt's future depends on the success of the population to resist the antiquated and isolationist ways of the religious Islamist parties. In the 1920's and on, Egypt was a secular population and progressing towards western values. Nasser was moving in that direction, despite the corruption. The Muslim Brotherhood has put a stop to evolution and progress in Egypt and other Middle Eastern countries who have become religious fanatics instead of inhabitants of the 20st century.
