Incidentally, Islamists don't care about Egypt. As the good Mr Ibrahim observes:
Accordingly, while many Egyptians—Muslims and non-Muslims alike—see themselves as Egyptians, Islamists have no national identity, identifying only with Islam’s “culture,” based on the “sunna” of the prophet and Islam’s language, Arabic.* This sentiment was clearly reflected when the former*Leader of the Muslim Brotherhood, Muhammad Akef, declared “the hell with Egypt,” indicating that the interests of his country are secondary to Islam’s.
Funny that. "The hell with Egypt" doesn't sound...patriotic.
