Egyptian Reality

The situation in Egypt is fraught with danger. The ordinary Egyptian does not want a Muslim Brotherhood dictatorship. He wants food and butter, not bullets. He did not dispose of Mubarak in order to get a more brutal version of Mubarak.

The United States has made a catastrophic mistake in its handling of Egypt. A Muslim dictatorship cannot fulfill the needs of the people. Elected officials in Washington need to understand that the average Muslim who lives in the United States is not the average Muslim who lives in the Middle East and that Islam cannot achieve economic prosperity in areas of the world where governments brutalize their people.
