March 3, 1953 Muhammad Naguib
Today the Revolutionary Command Council voted on the new government for Egypt. The majority including myself choose a dictatorship. Abdel Nasser chose a democracy.He stormed out of the meeting looking very distressed. Now I see where Nasser is going with a democracy; more civil liberties, universal male suffrage and it was also favored by the citizens. The problem is, a democracy will not maintain order or end corruption. We need a strong and decisive leader to rule the government and maintain order. Egypt is in a very fragile state right now so it is important that a government be issued immediately in order to prevent hell from breaking loose. I do agree with Nasser that the only way to convince the people that there is hope.
