The Unfolding Tragedy in Egypt | National Catholic Reporter

The Unfolding Tragedy in Egypt | National Catholic Reporter by MSW.  MGB: I would say that it depends on whether the Muslim Brotherhood is willing to play nice and work in a coalition rather than governing autocratically in the event it ever comes back into power.  Their majority is rather conservative and rather rural - kind of like the deep south before and after the civil war.  If Egypt has a more federal system, where that conservative impulse could be localized while still controlled by a strong enough federal government to insure basic rights, then ending their suppression might be possible.
