Egyptian militarys grand illusion fades Three years after Egypts military rulers were overthrown by a spontaneous outpouring of mass hatred, they have been returned to power by a crescendo of mass applause. This remarkable feat was achieved largely by a series of illusions conjured up by the propagandists of the deposed military regime. The first illusion portrayed the ruling Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist organization intent on enslaving Egyptians in an Iranian-style Islamic republic replete with mandatory veils, religious police, and armed Brotherhood militias. The next illusion portrayed General Abdul Fattah el-Sisi, the interim leader of the military, as a sincere democrat committed to placing Egypt on the fast track to democracy and progress.
