| The tale of persecuted Egyptian sociologist Saad Eddin Ibrahim epitomizes the state of Egyptian politics at the turn of the 21st century. The government's throttling of civic groups, the US factor, the centrality of the judiciary, the divisions among Egyptian intellectuals - all are thrown into high relief by its three year long saga, which ended on 18 March 2003. |
