CAIRO: The Islamic trend used to accuse its opponents of atheism, said al-Tagammu Party spokesman Nabil Zaki, adding that “we are not the first faction facing such accusations from the Islamists.” “We do not fear their position, which rejects all opposition,” said Zaki. “God has not authorized anyone to speak on his behalf.” The Islamic movements always get anxious upon hearing the word “constitution,” Zaki continued, but the Egyptian people want a constitution that recognizes the rights of all Egyptian factions. Zaki also blamed the Egyptian constitution for creating a dictatorial regime during former President Hosni Mubarak's tenure, adding that the expansive power it allowed the president must be limited in the new Egyptian constitution to avoid another dictatorship.
