Al-Azhar University should be nationalized, closed down, and then reformed and turned into a secular university. It has shamed the people of Egypt and Muslims worldwide with its absolute obedience to tyrants and to reactionary thought since the days of the Nazi Anti-Semite, Anwar Sadat (favored by Westerners of course). Today, it is speaking as if it was part of the Egyptian uprising when it has been a small tool in the hands of Mubarak. I bet that the Egyptian people would prefer sermons by atheists to the reactionary pro-Mubarak sermons of the kooky clerics of Al-Azhar.
