The NYT'S journalists Kirkpatrick and El Shaikh on the days and events leading to the ouster of president Morsi of Egypt by protesters and the military
11/26/2011
The Muslim Brotherhood and president Morsi forged an alliance with the military under Gen. Sissi and liberals under ElBaradei leading to the election of Morsi as president in 2012. Gen. Sissi makes repeated efforts to get Morsi to form an inclusive government that gives liberals a voice in the government and policy. When this fails street protests from younger protesters who initiated the first protests at Tahrir Square against Mubarak, liberals, and others opposed to the Muslim Brotherhood, gain the support of Gen. Sissi, who abandons president Morsi. Kirkpatrick and El Shaikh give a detailed account of the events.

11/27/2010
The U.S. President visited Cairo and made a speech to students at the university there. The hopes he created there among young people have been quashed by the policies of the Obama administration. These policies have failed to vigorously support long delayed democratic processes in Egypt, and create a credibility gap for America in the Middle East.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
