Describing the Civil Rights Movement without mentioning Jim Crow is like writing about the atrocities committed by the German army in the Second World War and not mentioning Nazi race theory: it leaves out the primary ideologicalbasis of the injustice being described.
This is the reality of the basis of the current ideological foundation of the Egyptian army and the regime and the oligarchy that has had control for over six decades, sixty years of this, this is what we are having.
Russia therefore has quite good relations with some countries that are democratic, and quite bad relations with some countries that are autocratic: it determines its policies on a case by case basis not through reference to some abstract ideological construct.
