2:30 pm
inequality in the country were now finding an outlet. terrier square became the center of the popular opposition movement can get re a square was golds, paradise on earth, the shorter we felt like we all knew each other. all literally, all structure of the gyptian society were represented there, mostly muslims, and christians, women and men. workers and farmers, doctors, and engineers journalists all together on to korea, but you can see, but then the, the regime reacted as usual dispatching thugs to quell the unrest. mubarek had cracked down to nip protests in the bud before. but this time the demonstrators were fighting back the tunisian had shown them the way the
2:31 pm
protests escalated, the. 7 government buildings went up in flames. the regime was tottering. the situation seemed to be spinning into chaos. then the army entered the arena. the military has always been the power broker in egypt. the generals realized early on that new bark could not be saved and took control. initially, the soldiers were ordered not to take action against the protesters. instead, they fraternize with them. but the army leadership had very different plans for the time after the fall of the regime middle east expert daniel gala seized the role of the military as key to the
2:32 pm
developments that followed. they wanted to portray themselves as savior. if the people this move are kind of step down, most of the military power, and then ultimately the military was able to preserve its own status of our law, giving the impression to the outside world that we are on the side of the population. and as the focal mubarek fate was sealed. as in tunisia, the people brought down a regime that had seemed untouchable initially, the military took charge of an interim government. but the demonstrators were demanding reelections. they dreamed of a democratic future. dreams that were not to materialize. an entirely new force entered the political vacuum,
2:33 pm
the muslim brotherhood which mubarak had previously kept in check. the islamist organization now saw its chance to attain political power in egypt was about to try to have a political party before they have been wanted. by that you don't do that. 2 things are prohibited to have a political party to have media out. it just was curious if you try to approach this read june. so you will be all in june. actually after mubarak fall, the muslim brotherhood openly pursued its political goal of a state ruled by islamic or sherry, a law it launched the freedom and justice party, hom says, oba was one of its spokesmen. ah, the brotherhood had built up
2:34 pm
a considerable base and poor urban neighborhoods. and among the rural population where its supporters were conservative, devout and barely educated. during the years of persecution under mubarak, the muslim brotherhood put its political ambitions, seemingly on hold, focusing on charitable work and building up networks. the. the muslim brotherhood was founded in the 1920s as part of the opposition to british colonial rule in egypt. its members now dreamed of a state governed by islamic principles. most of the muslim brotherhood and there is no real alternatives and taking power. at least if you look at their core ideology, what done only then as i found a house on our panel roads, will they be in a position to implement god's will and his lamb victory only then with political
2:35 pm
power in their hands. and how would they be able to transform the state and run political life? and so for the most in brotherhood, the mother is really no tentative political power. those young people who had forced to move eric to step down, still dreamed of freedom and democracy. but they could not prevail against the well organized islamist lebanese dutch journalist camp got us was in egypt in 2011. after the fall of the bark, i was a b, b. c correspondent, covering the state department. and i traveled with hillary clinton or secretary of state to cairo. and we met with some of the activists of april 6th movement who had helped bring down the hospital bar. hillary clinton asked them how are you preparing for the elections?
2:36 pm
and they said, we don't do elections, we don't do politics, we just do revolution. it's a very idealistic outlook. and one that you can understand if you realize how dirty politics have been in the region for so long, ah, even after the inter, a military government scheduled elections, the bloody clashes continued. the protesters wanted a genuine revolution. they were becoming more radical. but the ongoing chaos on cairo's streets, scared many people and pushed them into the arms of the islamists. the we didn't use power, we use the boat people. we use the when the people we managed to get the people out of the homes to vote for the president. and he got more than 15000000 benson vote.
2:37 pm
after his election victory in 2012. the muslim brotherhood mohammed morsey bound to be the president for all addictions, more jobs, more prosperity, more democracy, central demands of the arab spring seemed set to come true. but if anything, the opposite was happening. as the islamists gained influenced? the morsey government, pardon, prisoners, including islamist militants. there was a shifting focus towards sherry, a law with women's rights curtailed and public life to become more islam. eyes not militant islam. mists were calling for holy war. egypt appeared headed toward a theocratic state. 7 7 7
2:38 pm
in some of the gulf, states were watching the rise of the muslim brotherhood with concerned. the united arab emirates, or u. a. e is a federation of 7 chic them on the east of the arabian peninsula. me all the rulers and avo dobby and to buy are among the richest men in the world. they too had cause to fear for their future. feel how many ruling families in the world base their claim to power either on his land or and then noble ancestry. on the muslim, the muslim brotherhood were in his midst organisation with a certain amount of popular support. and they were the only ones who had really been able to credibly challenge this claim to power. and also had the means to change the political situation. the pollutants had turned on for the ruling house
2:39 pm
in abu dhabi, the fight against the muslim brotherhood became a priority not to promote democracy. but because the authoritarian rulers feared being swept away by the brotherhood who were using islam as a political weapon. the absolute rulers in the gulf used islam as a means to legitimize their regimes. in the emerett spelt particularly threatened because rival cutter had become the main backer of the muslim brotherhood, supported by turkey in egypt and geneva. the brotherhood was an important political factor at the beginning of the arab spring. it also had a strong presence in libya, sudan, jordan, morocco, and syria. its most determined opponent, alongside the united arab emirates, was saudi arabia had the
2:40 pm
so it is in the saudi arabia and the merits. wanted to prevent the realization of cutout interest based on the life and death conflict over control in the region today. it's perhaps more important than the arab israeli conflicts level 3 glucose fetus jaila hob. ah, this is another legacy of the arab spring. the stance toward the muslim brotherhood still often marks the demarcation line between friend and foe. into neesha political developments were initially similar to those in egypt. here to the country's 1st democratic elections took place after the revolution. here to the muslim brotherhood succeeded and becoming part of the government. here too, there was a threat of radicalization. the political forces were deadlocks. the economy stagnated, unemployment, rows more and more young people were trying to immigrate to europe. the new

political class seemed as incapable of leading tunisia to a better future as the former regime. some tunisians even began to wish for the return of ben ali, ah rochelle, she has been speaker of the tenacious parliament since 2019, and is the leader of the and not a party which has close ties to the muslim brotherhood. the party holds moderate positions, but critics initially accused canoes of wanting to use democracy for his own agenda . similar to the brotherhood in egypt. ah, no, she returned home in 2011. he had been imprisoned in tunisia in the 19 eighties and spent 2 decades in exile in britain the name of doing this. while in egypt there was a clash between the muslim brotherhood and the officials of the past system. and
2:42 pm
this ended in a qu, into nicea, we tried to reach a compromise between us, the been most sides. we and the representatives of the old regime embrace democracy and elected s m. c, as president of our now it's been near democrat, the moment that i'm for i subsea canoe, she likes to portray himself and his party as regular conservatives committed to their religious values, but also to democracy the whole. but soon after the revolution from 2011 to 2013. and now that also became a rallying point for islamists. many of the party leaders had spent years in the regimes. prisons, along with the muslim brotherhood members. after the revolution and not a leaders looked on as islamists campaign for a shari'a law state. the.
2:43 pm

2:45 pm
still intoxicated by the success of the revolution. others were busy with the everyday struggle for survival. they can't continue to be used for the fears i had in 2011 have come true. show me because in to nicea after the revolution, people said, oh, it's not the same here as an al tyria. we are different. there will be assassinations or violence here. but then there were, there were assassinations of politicians. there was terrorism, there were homes chose box, which is what i did from this dog here in my blog. to portray all these, his limits as violent people, who did it, how that more brook conditional in 2013 to left. when politicians were killed in attacks by islamists, many tunisians held rush had got new shape politically responsible and demanded
2:46 pm
that his and not a party leave the governments. in the and in a row, we strongly condemned all the silence these attacks. and when we were in the coalition government in 20122013, we passed a law to band the cellists. now a 7 cannon ball. it was the minister of the interior, one of us who made sure that the sell us party was banned. definitely it now, all of us that kind of, that made it illegal. and that was the only way to prohibit and police these movements left me was want, was, for, has been more thought than we will use. no, she continued to emphasize his parties commitment to democracy despite its
2:47 pm
proximity to the muslim brotherhood. but as in 2011, it was women who were defending the gaines of the revolution against the brotherhood in the face of political violence. one special feature of tunisia was revealed a strong civil society that would not accept terror. we did bush, molly is the president of the country's employers association does not want to want to show. we feared for our revolution when we were afraid of a step backward and that our democracy or freedom would evaporate and the dictatorship of return. when an addicted to an alliance was formed, boucher always organization joined the tunisian national dialogue quartet together with trade unionists, human rights activists and lawyers. they helped pave the way to a new constitution. and nato was among the parties that promised to abide by it.
2:48 pm
