Obama's clueless staff: "Muslim Brotherhood Secular, not violent"

[carpro]

The article states that the moderate, liberal element are the younger members that are technically savvy and gained a lot of clout with the old guard by effecting change by demonstrating peaceably.

This is a fascinating subject matter to follow. I think the moderate younger faction will win out eventually, but I agree with you that it could take some time and in the near term, unfortunately for Egypt, the old guard's policies will probably prevail.

More anonymous quotes. This source is highly questionable. :smilewinkgrin:

If the Muslim Brotherhood comes to power, through elections or some other way, that would be a repeat of 1979 in Iran," when moderate governments installed after the shah gave way to the ayatollahs, says a senior Israeli official. "It's something we're looking at with great caution."

The problem is that with Islamic groups the not moderate, not liberal element members have a nasty habit of killing those that disagree with them.

Which is how the nut jobs get in control - kill and intimidate everyone else.
