The article appeared in November 2001. I read it on a flight I took back to Atlanta, shortly after 9/11.. It is fascinating to see how the Egyptian government tried to cover up what happened, and tried to do so in the name of Islam, essentially.<br /><br />I think things will be different under al-Sisi, because he believes in different ideas. But the problem is institutional. It can not be fixed by one man.Pastoriushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03169561459129778670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19209018.post-87810573680949120032016-05-21T12:11:23.279+01:002016-05-21T12:11:23.279+01:00Epa,
