As everyone surely knows by now, Hosni Mubarak resigned on friday from his post as President of Egypt, turning over power to the military. There has been a lot of debate about what exact will happen now-- whether Egyptian will become a flourishing democracy or succumb to the tyranny of another autocrat. There has been much hand-wringing in the media about what role the Muslim Brotherhood will play in Egypt's path to democracy. This is an interesting article I read in Foreign Affairs I read early this week (before Mubarak had resigned), that works to dispel the worries of many about the Muslim Brotherhood. Hope you all enjoy!--Abigail G.
