Egypt's Sisi: Islamic 'Thinking' Is 'Antagonizing the Entire World' :: Middle East Forum

Egypt's Sisi: Islamic 'Thinking' Is 'Antagonizing the Entire World' :: Middle East Forum

Among other things, Sisi said that the "corpus of [Islamic] texts and ideas that we have sacralized over the years" are "antagonizing the entire world"; that it is not "possible that 1.6 billion people [reference to the world's Muslims] should want to kill the rest of the world's inhabitants—that is 7 billion—so that they themselves may live"; and that Egypt (or the Islamic world in its entirety) "is being torn, it is being destroyed, it is being lost—and it is being lost by our own hands."
