Some Other People's Takes on Egypt's Dilemma

In my earlier post, I quoted Steve Negus' insightful piece at The Arabist on the present situation in Egypt. Here are several other useful takes on the current problems.

• Khaled ElGindy on "The Failure of Egyptian Politics," at Tahrir Squared. All sides are responsible for the current mess.

• Charles Holmes, "The Revolution Continues," at Foreign Policy. The ongoing dismantling of the Nasserist state.

• Amr Adly, "The Opposition's Lost Bet on the Economic Crisis,"  Neither side seems to be able to address the worsening economic situation. at Egypt Independent.

• Steven A. Cook, "Wanting Egypt to Fail,"  at his Council on Foreign Relations Blog. On critics of US policy towards Morsi.

• Sarah Carr, "Back to the Squares, without the Brothers," at Egypt Independent. On the anniversary.

• And if you haven't already seen Yasmine El Rashidi's "Egypt: The Rule of the Brotherhood" in The New York Review of Books, you should take a look at it.

• Bassem Sabry for Al-Monitor: "15 Things Egypt Must Do to Get Back from the Btink."
