The article looks too “trotskistish”, i.e. too abstractly “leftish” and too un-historical. As marxists, you should take into account a real balance of social and political forces in modern Egypt. The fact is that _today_ Egyptian army defends democratic achievements of last years against political and religious reaction. It’s not a Marxism to talk about “peace and violence” by themselves only or about abstract “workers and poor”, ignoring differences and contradictions between majorities of rural (fellahs) and urban (industrial workers and “white collars”) exploited people. Only the last stand for secular and democratic regime in Egypt, while fellahs, in majority, are _today_ a social base of reaction.

Also a word about a role of USA’s imperialism. If you take a look on political changes of last years in Asia and North Africa, you will see that movements of islamite militants fighting against secular governments always was supported and armed by USA government. Don’t you suppose that the same scenario is planned and actually played for Egypt?

Finally, the fact is that working class and its party are not a leading force in Egypt today. Also the fact is that Egyptian Army is not just one of main political forces, but also is the main force counteracting to attempts of a reactionary, Libya-like coup. Yes, the large political role of Army is a problem. But it is much better for working class and its party to develop in peaceful, secular and “democratic” country, what will be impossible if today’s _real_ pro-secular forces don’t stop islamite reaction, even using an armed force.
