« Gaza Follow-up: Cruel, Thoughtless | Main | The Synagogues in Gaza » Democracy in Egypt?
By Micah Halpern
Saturday August 27, 2005 I've Been Thinking: September 7th. The first presidential election in Egyptian history. This election does not mean that Egypt will suddenly become a Western democracy. It does not mean that Egypt will embrace the values of debate and freedom and cast off a long history of dictatorship. If you are hoping for success, introduce change in the Arab world through internal reforms created and initiated by the leaders themselves, not by ousting the leaders. Marx was wrong. 4 June 2017 12:14 PM in Thoughts
