Detail Vote for the Brother; Egypt's Election   Oleh:  [s.n] Jenis: Article from Bulletin/Magazine Dalam koleksi: The Economist (http://search.proquest.com/) vol. 403 no. 8789 (Jun. 2012), page 12-13.

That is hardly surprising, since we incline towards liberalism, and the Arab spring has not fostered it in the Arab world's biggest country. Amr Moussa, the diplomat we supported in the first round, was trounced, and Egyptians now have a wretched choice between Muhammad Morsi, a dreary Muslim Brother who narrowly won the first round, and Ahmed Shafiq, a former air-force chief and standard-bearer for the Mubarak old guard. Even now the contest is plagued by uncertainty. As we went to press, the supreme court was due to rule on whether to exclude Mr Shafiq from the run-off because of his role in the old regime. Such a chaotic debut for democracy would tempt ordinary Egyptians to pine for the brutal certitudes of Mr Mubarak's rule. Better that the vote take place--and that Mr Morsi, the Muslim Brother, become president of the Arab world's biggest country. Opini Anda Klik untuk menuliskan opini Anda tentang koleksi ini! Kembali
