Egypt is living in a state of anticipation these days, waiting for a decision from the regime: Will Defense Minister Gen. Abdel Fattah al-Sisi run for president as a representative of the military institution, putting the military and the army at the forefront of the political scene and on the frontline of confrontations? Or will the authorities preserve the military institution and choose for Sisi to remain as defense minister?
I would like to express an opinion here that I would argue many civilian revolutionary and youth forces and their supporters share with me, even if they cannot express it in light of the one-sided nature of the media today.
