The Muslim Brotherhood is making a noisy attempt to return to life after being clinically dead, based on several contradictory axes. The first is the return of violence through granting a green light to the group’s armed wing, “Hasm Movement,” to carry out operations inside the country, a plan foiled early by vigilant security intelligence and arrests of its members. The second axis is the return of the “Midan” organization to media uproar to spread rumors, distort facts, and tarnish Egypt’s role, evident in calls for a general mobilization to besiege Egyptian embassies abroad. The third and most important axis is the emergence of members and sympathizers proposing reconciliation and dialogue with the state to assert the group’s existence, strength, and ability, evidenced by sitting at negotiation tables with the state, sending a valuable message to its members drowning in despair and those fleeing the group.

The Muslim Brotherhood is clinically dead with strong individual attempts to revive it, and it is rejected not only in Egypt but across almost all Arab and Islamic countries, isolated as if it were a contagious disease. Even the Syrian president and his allies have rejected the Brotherhood’s return and demanded its dissolution and removal from the public scene. This raises the fundamental question: How can the Egyptian state, which has suffered from the Brotherhood for nearly 100 years, accept and open its arms to the group and grant it a kiss of life after clinical death?

Simply proposing dialogue and reconciliation with the Egyptian state is a malicious attempt to inflate the group’s capabilities and present it as a significant political player, which contradicts reality where the real confrontation comes from the Egyptian people.

Examining the “dead” proposal for dialogue and reconciliation in recent hours reveals the reappearance of Ayman Nour, speaking as he did 20 years ago. Questions arise about his legitimacy: a fugitive supporting a terrorist group, who established media outlets funded by unknown sources to harm the country and plots abroad to drag Egypt into chaos, now calling for reconciliation with the Egyptian state?

Ayman Nour falls into a pathetic contradiction, denying the group’s criminal acts then praising it as an overwhelming force. He recently stated that regional developments suggest tolerance towards individuals and currents involved in terrorism, while dialogue and openness are blocked for moderate currents like the Muslim Brotherhood due to closed-mindedness, despite politics being based on dialogue and openness.

We respond to Ayman Nour, who lives on the ruins of his distant past filled with lies, that even the Syrian regime rejects the Brotherhood’s return, seeing it as a treacherous, criminal, and unreliable group.

Nour also warned that political deadlock could lead to extremism, noting a widespread view in Egyptian streets favoring a Syrian-style solution, though he admits Egypt is not Syria and the comparison is wrong.

We ask Nour what he knows about the Egyptian street, having fled and declared support for a terrorist group that killed, conspired, burned, and destroyed Egypt’s resources, prioritizing the group’s interests over the homeland’s.

Those proposing dialogue and reconciliation know their real conflict is not just with the government but with the Egyptian people’s consensus, which has grown angrier and more certain of the Brotherhood’s treacherous cancerous spread, especially after calling for a general mobilization to absolve Israel of war crimes in Gaza and trying to implicate Egypt, as shown by the demonstration besieging the Egyptian embassy in Tel Aviv with Israeli flags.

To be continued if life permits.
