General El-Sisi will be the next Strongman in Egypt in the mode of Mubarak? If so, good.

Let's face it. For Arab countries in the Middle East, they are always better off when a secular Arab Strongman is in charge.

Neo-Con ideals advocated by the Bush Administration haven't showed to be working in the Middle East. Best example, the Christians in Iraq were better off when Saddam was in charge.
