The Princess and the Brotherhood
2013-07-07
A long life reminds us of how short history is: Princess Fawzia outlived the Egyptian monarchy, and the Nasserist fascism and pan-Arabism that succeeded it, and the doomed "United Arab Republic" of Egypt and Syria, and the fetid third-of-a-century "stability" of the Mubarak kleptocracy. And she came within 24 hours of outliving the Muslim Brotherhood's brief, disastrous grip on power.
Mark Steyn at his finest. As they say, RTWT.
