The National Review, the country's leading conservative thought
publication, argues in an editorial that the U.S. should stand strongly
behind the Egyptian military and other legitimate democratic forces in
opposing the Muslim Brotherhood.
In the strongly worded editorial posted to its website, the National Review argues that despite the mounting casualties as Egypt’s military-backed government escalates its war with the Muslim Brotherhood, the Egyptian military is ultimately the "best hope" for a viable and eventual democratic state in the Arab world’s most populous nation.
The Review also says that the United States and her interests would be best served by supporting the military government and that the Obama administration should continue its financial backing of the government to maintain influence and push it toward shared objectives.
“The security-seeking military is a better bet for Egypt’s long-term prospects of pluralism than are anti-democratic Islamists,” the Review’s editors write.
