Apparently Ahram Didn't Mean This Headline Ironically: "As Long as the Army is Good, Egypt is Good -- El Sisi"

 Older Americans may remember "what's good for General Motors is Good for the United States." But Ahram Online,  a state-run site, presumably actually meant this: "As Long as the Army is Good, Egypt is Good -- El Sisi."

Not, I fear, meant ironically.
