Fear of the Muslim Brotherhood, which is only marginally involved in an uprising that it did not initiate and has no hope of controlling, is no excuse for trying to save a failing regime. The tragic consequences of eleventh-hour attempts to save the Shah in Iran should not be forgotten.
害怕穆斯林兄弟会掌权无法成为试图挽救失败政府的借口，该组织只是有限地参与了这场起义，它既不是起义的发起者也不能控制起义。 我们不应忘记最后一刻试图挽救伊朗国王的悲剧后果。 我们同样没有理由相信（与独裁政权反复强调的观点相反）穆斯林兄弟会能够窃取民主转型的胜利果实。
