Egypt Vs. The Muslim Brotherhood – Preventing the Next Syria
How Egypt Got Here  Egypt’s current turmoil is a direct result of the 2011 so-called “Arab Spring.†While nations like Libya lie in ruins with the “revolution†a “success†and the Libyan people now subjugated by pro-Western proxies, and Syria as it continues to fight on in a costly 3 year conflict that has cost tens of thousands of lives, Egypt has taken a different path. When violent mobs began inching Egypt toward violence of Libyan and Syrian proportions, the Egyptian military, who has been the primary brokers of power in Egypt for decades, bent with the winds of change. Hosni Mubarak was ousted from power and the military tolerated the rise of the Muslim Brotherhood itself into power.
