Egypt's Identity Crisis
The Washington Post
16 August 2013
 
 
From millions in Cairo's Tahrir Square two years ago, revolting against Hosni Mubarak's repressive rule and chanting "Silmiyya, silmiyya" (peaceful, peaceful), to a bloody Wednesday, with hundreds dead and many more wounded as security forces stormed sit-ins by supporters of ousted president Mohamed Morsi. From a mostly peaceful transition to a violent crackdown. From calls for democracy to a state of emergency.
