that is the risk here
that they will end up with some similar tosser in charge justifying his every move on a book that was written some 2000 years ago.

It's not really
there isn't a significant religious leader in Egypt like there was in Iran. The problem is there isn't really any opposition.

But, if they have a free election and most of the people vote in favour of a more theocratic government, then who are we to say that's a problem.

and if they get that kind of government, great
but there is a real risk that there will just be chaos, the army will run it with an iron fist, and eventually someone will come out on top as a dictator, justifying it all on the basis of allah's word.
