re: #41 Charles

Most people say the MB has about 20-30% support among the Egyptian public. It’s not inevitable that they’ll end up in charge, but whoever does is going to have to deal with them in one way or another.

Again, it is important to point out that the MB will also have to deal with the 70-80 % who don’t support them and who, as evidenced by the recent events, are quite willing to go out and actively participate in the political process against all fears of repression.
