After we supported an oppressive regime who are we to judge their free will?Because we're better than they are. Do you honestly believe that after years of Mubarek rule which western governments supported that Egyptians are going to simply forget? The people who voted MB don't care about things like that, they just vote for whomever their iMam tells them to. They obviously don't want liberty. Theocracy is entirely incompatible with it. Besides, the people in Tahrir Square may have wanted Democracy but they were outvoted by the traditionalists elsewhere in the country. It's foolish to think so, they'll treat anyone supported by the west with mistrust it's only natural wouldn't you agree? If I were around in 1789, I'd rather have a candidate for president supported by the British Government than some puritan radical. Despite the proper mistrust of Great Britain at the time. Voting against your own interests just because they're also contrary to Western interests is childish. These people didn't vote against pro-Western candidates because of Western support for Mubarak, they voted for the MB because they actually prefer the MB. |
