el Sissi
What would Beavis and Butthead make of that name? ;-)
I don’t think it was a good idea for el-Sisi to personally assume direct control of the Egyptian government. Now if the economy stays south, his current popularity will eventually evaporate.
And Egypt’s economic fundamentals are so poor that that will almost certainly be the case, unless we and the Gulf give them more money. They are already dependent on foreign aid to survive, thanks to the massive subsidies that the government has been compelled to give on food, oil etc.
Riots will also ensue if el-Sisi tries to remove these subsidies, as they have every other time an Egyptian leader tried to get rid of budget killing subsidies.
So, they want a dictator who’s a Sissi?................
What the western world needs to understand is that Islam is not compatible with a republican or democratic form of government.
