The current scene in the Egyptian community pushes us to stop and think for a while about a real solution for the situation at hand. Before this analysis, however, we should admit that the Muslim Brotherhood is one of the main factors responsible for the chaos we are now living in. We have to be sure that if the Muslim Brotherhood showed any hint of wisdom and pragmatism in dealing with the political situation, we wouldn’t have reached to such a state.
There are many people still asking why Pope Benedict resigned. There are many possible answers such as age, health, corruption in the Vatican, or even the scandal of sexual harassment related to some of the priests in the Vatican. It could also have been the only way to amend current relations with the Muslim world. There are many different interpretations as to why, but the only thing that all people can agree on is that he left his position for the interest of Vatican, as he himself announced many times.
Who is responsible for burning Egypt now? The Muslim Brotherhood is. Who is responsible for penetrating the law? The Muslim Brotherhood is. Who is responsible for the chaos that Egypt has now? The Muslims Brotherhood is. Who is responsible for non-agreement between political powers? The Muslims Brotherhood is.
All we hear nowadays is about participating or boycotting the controversial parliamentary elections. The Muslim Brotherhood’s vendetta to capture the entire country is now clear. It is also clear that they do not care about what’s in the country’s best interests.
What happened in Tunisia lately with the assassination of Shokry Bal Aeid is by no means similar of what is happening in Egypt. Egypt has taken part in assassination far before Tunisia. The killing of Mohammed Guindi, the stripping of a person in front of the presidential palace, and the taking away of women’s rights, is assassination! Furthermore, those who believe in the Muslim Brotherhood taking power and being a responsible government are ignorant.
