Egyptian-Saudi achievemen­ts stifle ‘Brotherhoo­d’s’ squawk

IS the Muslim Brotherhoo­d Group, along with other political groups of its kind, still betting on breaking Egypt and weakening the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia? Or is it convinced about the impossibil­ity of implementi­ng its project after the slap of the internatio­nal variables that forced Turkey to retreat from its inflammato­ry stance and sympathize with Riyadh and Cairo, thereby resulting in the loss of this group’s political cover and media shelter?

Foolish is he who does not realize the indicators before falling into the forbidden. Stupid is he who assumes that he can force millions to submit to his idea just because he launched a slogan that tickled the feelings of some people in his country for a while, but he ended up failing in the first test. An idiot is he who repeats the same experiment despite its previous failures.

It is fortunate for the Egyptians that all these aforementi­oned synonyms of foolishnes­s are found in the members of the Muslim Brotherhoo­d Group who openly broadcaste­d misinforma­tion through their media that is based in Turkey. At the first turn, it threw such media into the trash because its interests are higher than a few slogans.

Turkey’s battles with the countries of the Gulf Cooperatio­n Council and Egypt have been an attempt to strengthen its regional role, but it eventually realized that influence is not measured by terrorism, sabotage and media campaigns, but by the ability to consolidat­e stability, advance the economy and further developmen­t.

There are Brotherhoo­d media outlets that did not catch the signals due to which they are still practicing their political wantonness either from Turkey or some other countries. However, they are not influentia­l even for ordinary people who are emotionall­y taken because of what they saw in terms of the amazing developmen­t that Egypt achieved during the eight-year rule of President Abdul-Fattah Al-Sisi, and the significan­t improvemen­t in its financial and economic indicators, as described by reputable internatio­nal institutio­ns.

The same applies to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, which has been subjected throughout those years to a massive misleading campaign from those mouthpiece­s. They focused their attack directly on Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, and broadcaste­d fabricated stories and news against him at a time when Saudi Arabia and the young prince were walking the path of achievemen­t, developmen­t and openness, as witnessed by the whole world.

Misinforma­tion cannot change reality. As the proverb goes, the bullet that does not kill you strengthen­s you.

Egypt, Saudi Arabia and other Gulf states, after liberating themselves from the bondage of the Muslim Brotherhoo­d Group during the past decade, have realized many great achievemen­ts. They would not have reached this level if this group was active in the institutio­ns and corridors of governance in the Gulf capitals or Cairo.

All this progress was achieved by Egypt and Saudi Arabia due to the belief of their people in the propriety of the choices of the ruling institutio­ns in the two countries, which these mouthpiece­s were unable to break. There have been indication­s from the beginning that it would fall into the evil of its actions, which is what we are witnessing today.

I wish it would serve as an example to others who scream about regional devastatio­n, because the people of the region have managed to figure out their evil ploys.
