Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt to be dismantled

[Roudy]

This is great news for the people of Egypt that they are freeing themselves from the what was going to be a huge mistake in their history. I guess they must have observed what Islamism does in countries like Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, etc and decided they want no part of it.

“It’s very clear right now that the current government wants to eradicate the Muslim Brotherhood,” said Khalil al-Anani, a Cairo-based political expert.

Meanwhile General Sisi, who has become a hugely popular figure in Egypt since last month’s coup, said in his statement that the military “will not stand by silently watching the destruction of the country and the people or the torching of the nation and terrorising the citizens".

Many Egyptian liberals and leftists have never really got over their suspicion of political Islam. Their fears were fuelled by a doctrine and rhetoric which has often seemed anathema to democracy and secularism. But over the past week, many Islamists have encouraged hostility against them, with dozens of churches and Christian homes torched and looted across Egypt since Wednesday.

Cairo Cracks Down on Al Jazeera Channel

The military interim government in Cairo is cracking down on a key adversary – satellite news network Al Jazeera, which is widely seen as being biased in favor of the Muslim Brotherhood.

“The Cabinet has assigned competent authorities to assess the legal status of the Al Jazeera satellite channel, accusing it of threatening stability and national security,” local media said, according to a report on the Egypt Independent Sunday.

The New York Times noted Sunday that while the military interim government had already shut down all of the Egyptian television networks that supported President Mohamed Morsi on the night of Morsi's ouster – in the last four days, “the new authorities have raided and shut down the offices of the pan-Arab Al Jazeera network, taken steps to deny its Egyptian license and, on Sunday, arrested its correspondent Abdullah El-Shamy on charges of inciting murder and sectarian violence.”

Al Jazeera, is based in Qatar and is the only big Arabic-language network that is considered biased in favor of the Muslim Brotherhood. It is widely seen as a key agitator in the rebellions that have spread throughout the Arab world in the last two years.

This can be a game changer for the people of the Middle East and very positive for the world in general. Egypt is the trend setter in the Arab world, and it could usher in the demise of Islamism and political Islam. In other words the separation of church and state, the foundation of all legitimate democracies.

I hope so. It seems fairly promising. The start of a well-needed change.

Militants kill 25 Egyptian policemen in Sinai

Suspected militants on Monday ambushed two mini-buses carrying off-duty policemen in Egypt's northern Sinai, killing 25 of them execution-style and wounding two, security officials said.

The militants forced the two vehicles to stop, ordered the policemen out and forced them to lie on the ground before they shot them to death, the officials said.

It is not clear to me WHY the MB is engaging
in terrorist actions in egypt against the cops and
the military------unless they actually believe that they
can FIGHT their way to the control of Egypt by killing
the opposition-----to me that means they believe that
they have majority support -----they may be right.
The ayatoilets in iran have majority support-----it is just
the intelligentsia that rejects them

Does this mean we can dismantle democrats too ?

 

[Sunni Man]

Funny how the biggest supporters of Democracy and Freedom of Speech here on the board.

Support the military coup of the democratically elected MB government.

And cheer the governing junta which wants to ban the media outlet Al Jazeera. ..

I agree--there is something very odd about these events.

I guess democracy just doesn't work in some places ??

The Muslim brotherhood is against free speech and women's rights.

I simply pointed out their animalistic behavior.

If this is how they treat their own brothers, I'd hate to know what will they do to a Jewish child if having the opportunity.

That is all what the Arab-MidEast is about.

your people butchering eachother.

Thank heaven's for the Jews' sanity in this crazy area.

Apparently not, didn't you hear the last news? now it says those were forged. Considering the masses who demonstrate against the Islamization of Egypt, now it seems plausible.

Man this sounds too good to be true.

 

[peach174]

Now maybe people will understand why Mubarak banned them from politics for 30 years.
As soon as the Brotherhood took over, they put in Sharia Law and started burning Christian Churches and persecuting them.
They are Jihadist terrorists, they tried to do it peacefully , it didn't work.
They support Muslim Terrorists groups and they fund them.
Their ideology is exactly the same.
