Criticizing an institution is not the same as trying to destroy the country

Criticizing an institution is not the same as trying to destroy the country, so it’s hardly necessary to silence every source of criticism, Karima Kamal writes for Al Masry Al Youm. Kamal calls out House Speaker Ali Abdel Aal for claiming that any admonishment of the House of Representatives is part of a foreign-funded conspiracy, and urges him to realize that there is a clear difference between the institution he heads and the state. She also gently encourages the government to stop trying to silence dissenters, saying that this path is not reflective of stability.
