More Islam in Egypt the growing concern

The democratization of Egypt by the protesters has failed to materialize, instead we have seen the steady encroachment of pure Islam into the body politic.  The students started the shift, Islamists will finish it.  The tide has turned in Islams favor, all we are waiting for is the Egyptian military to decide who the next potentate will be.

Egypt revolution turns more Islamic, more anti-Israel  

For those who thought the Egyptian revolution is done and past, think again. Former Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak may be gone, but the country is currently being ruled by a temporary military regime, which means there are various forces still vying for future control of the Middle East’s largest military power.

And with the world’s attention now diverted elsewhere, the revolution in Cairo is starting to take on a more overtly Islamic and anti-Israel flavor.

Over the weekend, Cairo’s Tahrir Square again filled with angry demonstrators who are still waiting for their full list of demands to be met. Among them was the Muslim Brotherhood, which last week officially announced its intention to take part, as a group, in renewed anti-government protests.

As the demonstration turned increasingly hostile, Egyptian soldiers opened fire, reportedly killing two demonstrators and wounding another 15, according to Cairo hospital officials. The army denied firing live ammunition at the crowd.
