| Summary/Abstract |
THE SITUATION in the Middle East is complicated. In some countries Islamists are suffering a defeat while in other states they are putting up resistance.
The situation is naturally affected by the ongoing developments in Egypt. President Mohammed Morsi was elected in June 2012 with 52% of Egyptians voting for him. It is noteworthy that semi-literate and illiterate masses voted for the Muslim Brotherhood's candidate while the elite voted against him. The newly elected president took the path of turning Egypt into an "Islamic republic." Five representatives of the Muslim Brotherhood received ministerial portfolios, eight were appointed to positions in the presidential administration, 25 were appointed as governors' aides, and 12 representatives were nominated for mayors. M. Morsi made an attempt to establish control over the legislative, executive and judicial branches of government, as well as over the media. In November 2012, he ruled that courts may not challenge presidential decrees. On his watch, in 2012, a new Egyptian constitution was adopted that, in particular, limited women's rights and also proclaimed that the leadership of A1 Azhar University, which significantly influences political processes in the Arab world, is "the supreme and only arbiter on issues of Sharia law" and "the main source of the legal framework.

| Summary/Abstract |
How have the Arab uprisings changed Israel's security environment? Amnon Aran explores the many ways in which changes brought about by the ongoing unrest in the region, and in particular Egypt's new administration under Mohammed Morsi and the rise of political Islam, present not only a challenge but, if handled correctly, an opportunity for Israel's long-term security prospects.
