The Washington Post elite still believe that the Ikhwan are the “peaceful democrats” and the 33 million non violent Egyptians who demonstrated peacefully are the “Oppressive military.”
The twisted world view of the Washington Post’s “Foreign Policy Blogging” tenors remind us of the intellectually corrupted world of US Middle East Studies.
