Egypt Candidate Says Army is Making Mistakes
By Micah Halpern

Thursday September 1, 2011

I've Been Thinking:

Egyptian presidential candidate Mohammed Al Baradei gave an interview to the Egyptian newspaper al Sharouk.

Baradei expressed anger with the current military rulers for not permitting international observers to monitor the upcoming elections.
Baradei is the former head of the IAEA, the UN's nuclear watchdog.

He understands the importance of external supervision. He knows well that without international monitors this election will be a farce.

In the interview Baradei explains that the world has already stopped coming to Egypt - tourism has dropped totally and investors have all run away. A canned election will not convince the investors or the tourists to return.

What Baradei says makes perfect sense, but no one is willing to listen.
