I can not believe the “rumors” that the USA wants to see the MBs as gypt’s new rulers. If correct, it will be the hugest strategic mistake made by the USA since the end of WWII.
Also “if correct”, it will reflect nothing but an amazing inability to understand the fact that while there are many moderate MUSLIMS, there is no single moderate ISLAMIST on the face of earth. Political Islam (that world-class scholars believe that the undersigned understands more than any western scholar) is anti modernity, anti progress, anti humanity, anti democracy, anti peace, anti otherness, anti plurality, anti women rights, anti liberal education and anti free & critical mind BY DEFINITION.
Those who speak about “moderate Muslim Brothers” need a great deal of education about the history, nature and literature of political Islam. Education by world-class scholar, not by the peers of Tarek
Ramadan!
Finally, I hope that the USA shall not repeat its 1979 grave mistake when THE USA & KSA formed the Mujahedeen movement(s) in Afghanistan , a mistake that ultimitaely drove the world towards September 11th 2001.
