Can there be any reasonable conclusion for my dissertation.. It requires a tracing of merits of the Brotherhood and Egypt's military..
Whether the coup advanced towards democratic transition or regressed it, and the question seems to flummox me more, the more I read or research...
Brotherhood was democratically elected.. But can electing a bunch of radicals, with no real regard for pluralism or respect for minorities, and as many reasonably suspect, with hidden agenda of establishing a caliphate in the long run, can really be democratic?
But then, overthrowing an elected regime is no good either, more abhorable when this is done by a body of army men with dismal record of power grab!
Who to support, who to abhor? Pity that Egyptians are tossed between devil and the deep sea!
