Planting a bomb under Egyptian politics在埃及的政治舞台埋下炸弹WHEN Mohamed ElBaradei won the Nobel peace prize in 2005, Egyptians happily proclaimed him a national hero. But now that he has retired after 12 years as head of the International Atomic Energy Agency, the UN’s nuclear watchdog, some are calling him a villain. He may be an American or even an Iranian agent, hint editorials in Egypt’s state-owned press. He bears a nasty grudge against his native country after so long abroad, grumble other government mouthpieces. 当穆罕默德?巴拉迪在2005年获得诺贝尔和平奖时，埃及人兴奋的称他为国家英雄。但现在，当他从工作了十二年的国际原子能机构（联合国核武器监察机构）总干事职务上退休时，有些人却称呼他恶棍。埃及的国有新闻机构发表社论，暗指他可能是美国甚至是伊朗的间谍。在国外多年之后，他对自己的祖国怀有恶毒的怨恨，抱怨其他的政府官员。The reason for this sudden spate of spurious insinuation? Responding to pleas from reform-minded Egyptians despairing of local politics, Mr ElBaradei has suggested he may return to Egypt and run for president in elections due in 2011.

In Egypt, where five decades under a single party and almost three under its present leader, President Hosni Mubarak, have smothered all but a pretence of democracy, it has raised a big cloud of dust. The notion of Mr ElBaradei’s candidacy brings a frisson of unpredictability to what Egyptians had assumed would be a scripted outcome, giving either a sixth six-year term to Mr Mubarak, now 81, or a win for his son, Gamal, who steers policy in the ruling National Democratic Party (NDP). 对于一个如此名声显赫的公民参与选举，在别的地方可能并不能算是什么。但在埃及却能搅起风暴。这个国家在过去的五十年里一直被同一个政党统治，现任总统胡斯尼?穆巴拉克的统治几乎就占了三十年,民主已经成为虚假的表象。埃及人本以为选举的结果已经确定，要么是给已经81岁的穆巴拉克第六个六年任期，要么就是他的儿子贾迈勒当选，目前他已经开始掌控民族民主党（NDP）。但巴拉迪参选的打算给这次选举带来了变数。More annoyingly for Egypt’s rulers, Mr ElBaradei’s decl
