CorrectionReader comment on item: What to Want in Egypt Submitted by Bahi Habib (United States), Jul 29, 2013 at 18:41 I am always admire your great writings Mr. Pipes. However, allow me to say that what happen in Egypt was not a coup d'etat. This was the will of the majority of Egyptian to reject the attempts of MB to apply the shariah law and make Egypt an islamic state under the Khalifat authority that might be Mr. Ardogan of Turky, the sultan saltan. Believe me it is great benefit in general to the world and specific to Israel to have a civil and democratic government in Egypt. The intention of MB and those terrorist factions born out from its filthy womb is to destroy Israel and any non-moslem nations. Best regards.

For me, coup means a change in personnel but not institutions. In this light, 1952 was a revolution but 2011 a coup and, so far, 2013 is also a coup. Reader comments (37) on this item
