Egypt's faith behind 1973 'briliant victory': Brotherhood supreme guide
[Al Ahram] On the 39th anniversary of the 1973 war with Israel, Moslem Brüderbund's Supreme Guide Mohamed Badie attributed the "great October victory" to "Egyptians, Moslems and Christians, coming back to God" via the Islamist group's official Twitter account, Saturday.

The "brilliant victory" Badie added, "abolished the Zionist myth that its army was invincible."
Ummm... Correct me if I'm wrong, but they lost, didn't they? Maybe a thorough trouncing is an Islamic brilliant victory?
They got the Sinai back. Thus it is proved that they won.
6 October is an annual national holiday marking the start of the 1973 war, which Egyptians consider to be an historic victory over Israel, as it lead to the liberation of the Sinai Pensinula which the self-proclaimed Jewish state had held for six years.
How long do you s'pose they'll hold it next time, given that land for peace has been proved not to work?
Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi, who hails from the Islamist group, is expected to give a speech 6pm Saturday during the annual celebrations at captial's Cairo Stadium.
