Muslim Brotherhood takes lead role in Egypt

From the New York Times:
The Muslim Brotherhood... has transformed into a tacit partner with the military government [in Egypt] that many fear will thwart fundamental changes.

It is also clear that the young, educated secular activists... are no longer the driving political force...

“There is evidence the Brotherhood struck some kind of a deal with the military early on,” said Elijah Zarwan, a senior analyst... “It makes sense if you are the military — you want stability and people off the street. The Brotherhood is one address where you can go to get 100,000 people off the street.”...

“We are all worried,” said Amr Koura, 55, a television producer, reflecting the opinions of the secular minority. “The young people have no control of the revolution anymore. It was evident in the last few weeks when you saw a lot of bearded people taking charge. The youth are gone.”
P.S. As I note in my latest post, this would explain why Sadat's assassination plotters were recently released from prison?
