The rise and fall of the Muslim Brotherhood

Eleven articles on the subject can be accessed at the link.
[AlAhram] ‎Ninety years ago today, Hassan al-Banna founded the Moslem Brüderbund group, which went on to become a major player in both Egyptian and regional politics.‎

What follows below is not by any means a complete analysis of the role played by the group over the past nine ‎decades, but rather a collection of articles published during interesting times by both ‎Ahram Weekly and Ahram Online, with the aim of marking the day.

These articles attempt to explain the ‎rise and fall of the group which, after a revolution, managed to gain people's trust to win ‎both the legislative body and the presidency, and, in less than a year, became an enemy ‎of the people and the state; a group held accountable for planting the seeds of ‎radicalisation and violence, with an impact not only on Egypt but the entire region and even the world.‎
