Muslim Brotherhood

On Wednesday November 23, 2005, Kahirat el-Shatir (of the Muslim Brotherhood) wrote a column in the Guardian titled "No need to be afraid of us." Now that he assured the west, I wonder if the MB can assure the Egyptians of their intent. More importantly, can they inform the Egyptians how the Brotherhood will attain its goals? I always wondered how can "Islam be the Solution", when no Islamic economic institutions and infrastructure are in place or even nascent, in order to take care of "the Promised Islamic State." After all, you will have to trade internally and with the rest of the world to survive as a state. The task is daunting and people have not yet forgotten the shenanigan of scam artists like al-Rayyan brothers.
