Good remark by Per…
The inner tensions of a movement like the MB will always make its behavior contradictory and unpredictable. Leading members have a lot to loose: they can have their financial assets frozen or even be sent to military courts and jailed. On the other hand, many MB supporters is clearly willing to risk being beaten up in the streets or arrested in order to express their anger against what’s happening in Gaza. And despite the constant attempts of MB functionaries to stop them, many were happy to join the “Down with Mubarak” chants initiated by socialist and other activists at last week’s demonstrations.
