To the Departed Sayed Kotb
He became a leader
because of his attitudes
While not even Osama bin Laden was able to get your people to rise up, your thoughts eventually made their way into today’s uprising in Egypt with one correction, Mr. Kotb. Jahalia was not the problem.
The problem was the financing of dictatorships by American presidential dynasties. In the end, violence was not what worked against these tyrants. What worked was modern technology.
Egyptians learned not to fear. In turn, that led them to finally rise against “the power and authority” of their own nightmare, Hosni Mubarak.
