Egypt Continues Towards Democracy – Arrests 75 Brotherhood Leaders

From the Eyptian Independent: An additional 75 arrests of Mulsin Brotherood leaders took place - There may be more to follow:

The interior minister stressed that the crackdown would continue until all wanted figures had been captured, following a series of arrest warrants issued for senior Brotherhood figures.

State television reported on Thursday afternoon that another significant Brotherhood figure would be arrested shortly, without elaborating.

Security forces have arrested a number of Islamist figures over the past few days, among them the Muslim Brotherhood's Supreme Guide Mohamed Badei and prominent Islamist preacher, Safwat Hegazy. Both stand accused of inciting violence in clashes between the security forces and Morsy supporters in the wake of forced dispersals of Brotherhood-linked sit-ins in Cairo.

With the turmoil in the Middle East being tied to the radical factions of Islam, where there is little to no freedom under the theocracies that are literally political-religious organizations – Egypt has apparently rejected the attempt by the Muslim Brotherhood to impose that form of government in their nation. Does the world really need any more Iran’s? It also appears they are making progress without any outside influences - Refreshing!

Egyptian Media Opines Western Media Pays No Attention to Persecution of Christians – only Lauds Muslim Brotherhood. – Mubarak – Free from Prison Under House Arrest.

In an op-ed piece from the EnglishAhram.org, comes an opinion piece that is worth the read – suggesting that there is less attention paid to Muslim Brotherhood’s atrocities against Egyptian Christians, and more of a propping up of the organization. The piece is titled “The True Face of the Muslim Brotherhood”.

As this is State-run media, one gets the impression with the Brotherhood on the outs with the majority rule, one might understand that Egypt’s previous secular society was more in tune with the nation’s prosperity and openness, rather than living in what was an attempt at a “Muslim State”.

Additionally, the same agency is reporting that former President Mubarak is no longer imprisoned but under house arrest, much to the dismay of the various Muslim political parties.

Apparently, for all the meddling and propping up of the Brotherhood by certain politicians outside of Egypt, the Egyptians have decided upon their own path and government. A new constitution is reportedly in the works and should be released next week.
