The eerie silence of Egypt's ever-outspoken activists on such a fundamental national and environmental issue of turning the country to a nuclear energy-based system has led me back to the amusing revelation that we've really got one confused, and confusing, political landscape in Egypt: we've got "liberals" who are often seen as conservative; and a "left" that is militant, and partly fascist (the Nasserist branch of them; and what a great joke it is for some of our numerous "local and Western experts" to label them as left rather than far-right), and so wants to get its freak on with the atom :-)
It's no wonder come to think of it now that the state got el-Tagamu's Rifaat el-Said - the official, if not really the popular, face of the left - to be among its first public signatories of the project; who but the left would really object now to its nuclear proposal?
Smart, very smart.
