(FrontPageMagazine) Nonie Darwish - Westerners should not have any illusions about a secular government in Egypt or in any other Muslim nation. There are two kinds of governments in the Muslim world: those which pretend to be secular when they are not and openly proclaimed theocracies. We will not see a bearded sheikh installed as the Egyptian ayatollah. What is more likely to happen is the Islamists will back a sympathizer like ElBaradei to be the front-man posing as a democracy-loving moderate while his actual policy and rule will conform to the Islamists - or he won't survive.
