I don't think it's fair to discount present entrepreneurial endeavours because of Sisi's regime post-revolution -- which, my own opinions aside, many Egyptians are still proud of and feel like he's doing well by the nation.

Regardless of politics, it's still incredible how many young Egyptians are starting and sustaining businesses.. and particularly ones that are solving social and environmental problems that systems (political or otherwise) have not fixed.

I wonder if you would have cared so much if the previous "elected" president were German national socialists? Because the previous "elected" were Muslim Brotherhood rats.

I don't like commenting on others' politics and governments (Egypt in this case). I do for my own because I have the right to. But wouldn't a predominantely Muslim country vote for a Muslim government? Wouldn't a Christian-founded country like the US ensure its president is Christian? I think it's fair and logical.

My understanding is that the people of Egypt voted for a Muslim representation. They got just that (for better or worse). Until el-Sisi, with his military power, decided it didn't suit his own views.
