Juan Cole's story, ridiculous and incoherent on its face, that Muslim Brotherhood seeks to limit the power of the civilian government that it is set to lead, is a deliberate distraction on Cole's part away from the efforts that he is aware of by his own government to limit the power of the Egypt's civilian government.<br /><br />It is profoundly anti-democratic and unlike Jimmy Carter and MJ Rosenberg, Cole does not have the intellectual honesty to admit that he is opposed to Egyptian democracy.Arnold Evanshttp://mideastreality.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34135100.post-15466254632033129892012-01-31T05:29:54.217-05:002012-01-31T05:29:54.217-05:00Arnold, at least n7 has enough honesty not only ad...Arnold, at least n7 has enough honesty not only admit that he is AGAINST any democracy which is not colonialism (Zionism) friendly. He took the next logical step to endorse the colonialism itself (still under usual b...s.. that it would be better for colonized). n7 honesty is the same as his beloved Zionists - they often admit that Palestinians are NOT going to keep ANY land at all, because it all rightly belongs to colonizers-Zionists.
