Egypt: Brotherhood tries to disrupt presidential elections, so far 20 arrested

May 27, 2014 1:27 am By Raymond Ibrahim

egyptian-christians-after-protestEgyptian state security have already “arrested 20 rioters belonging to the Muslim Brotherhood” in a number of cities and provinces for trying to disrupt the presidential electoral process hours after polls opened on the first day, including through banditry, as happened in the Sanuras province, or by threatening voters, as happened in the village of Dafnu.

In other areas, followers of the Muslim Brotherhood protested and rioted, holding pictures of former Brotherhood president Morsi.

Many in Egypt expect more such disruptions from the Brotherhood, including possible acts of terror.

Conversely, the military that ousted and imprisoned many key Brotherhood members, and which has since been targeted, is especially on guard for any potential attacks.

While some may say that the Brotherhood and its supporters are only engaging in such desperate acts because they feel they have been treated unjustly after the June 2013 revolution saw the ousting of Morsi, it should be noted that even before Morsi became president, back during the 2012 presidential elections, they also terrorized people into voting the “right” way.

      Salah,
      I hope and pray that you are right but cannot bring myself to share your beliefs.
      The Muslim Brotherhood are like cancer cells in remission, inactive but not dead or gone. Just waiting to pop up again and restart the process of killing, killing and killing, until the host body is dead.
      The TOTAL destruction of Islam is the ONLY way to eradicate the vile disease infecting the human race.

        ” The TOTAL destruction of Islam is the ONLY way to eradicate the vile disease infecting the human race.”

        I agree, but this eradication won’t happen over night, there’s always a first step.
        If I’m optimistic, it’s because I’m able to recognize a “first step” when I see one.

        “…TOTAL destruction of Islam is the ONLY way to….etc…”

        You probably won’t get very far interms of building bridges with the friendly Muslim communities in your neighbourhood with that kind of an attitude….but I guess that is not your intention?

        ” The TOTAL destruction of Islam is the ONLY way to eradicate the vile disease infecting the human race.”

        I agree, but this eradication won’t happen over night, it’s a long journey and there’s always a first step to it.
        If I’m optimistic it’s because I’m able to recognize a “first step” when I see one.

      Salah, I pray that you are correct. The world will be a better place when the Muslim Brotherhood is gone from this planet.

      The Egyptian Nazi Party (the Muslim Brotherhood) may have life in it for years to come…unfortunately. I expect they will be a fringe group.

        continual CI operations by egyptian security forces may eventually reduce them to nothing.

    “Many in Egypt expect more such disruptions from the Brotherhood, including possible acts of terror.”

    Islamic counties are not used to civil laws. They probably don’t respect anything but sharia. And sharia will only obey sharia as the only law.

    Therefor, if Egypt really wants a civil/social law they must get rid of sharia.

    • Mirren10 says

      According to the article linked below, over 70% of Egyptians want sharia, and 90% are in favour of death for apostates.

      ”Therefor, if Egypt really wants a civil/social law they must get rid of sharia”

      I think the answer to that is that Egyptians don’t want any such thing. They just don’t want the Muslim Brotherhood.

        Exactly. The myth of the ‘moderate Muslim’ is devoutly believed by the Leftards because they need to believe that their allies are not out to destroy liberalism. The Leftards are willfully blind to the fact that 65% of Muslims worldwide want a caliphate that imposes Sharia against the will of the people, thereby destroying any semblance of democracy or pluralism.

        “I think the answer to that is that Egyptians don’t want any such thing. They just don’t want the Muslim Brotherhood.”

        Wrong. The MB were trying to change the Egyptian identity and turn it into an Islamic one. That’s why they’re gone and that’s why the new constitution won’t allow religion based parties.
        I don’t believe in moderate Islam, but most Muslims do, and THAT is good because rejecting violence is good.

          ”I don’t believe in moderate Islam, but most Muslims do, and THAT is good because rejecting violence is good”

          Did you actually **read** the link I posted ?

          Over 70% of Egyptians want sharia, and 90% are in favour of death for apostates.

          How does that equate with ‘moderate islam’, and **rejecting violence** ??!!

    Out of power does not mean out of the game…The Bro’s have been out of power before but survived just the same. The Bro’s destructive behavior is hard to stop, but their involvement in politics is not.

    • Salah says

      May 27, 2014 at 12:20 pm

      The MB has never been in power before Morsi’s one year rule. They have always been struggling against governments. This is the first time in their 85 year history they are fighting against the people. And THAT is different.

    • umbra says

      cut their funding sources, cut their indoctrination courses/centres, dismantle their logistic infrastructures, dismantle their training facilities and finally incarcerate all their leaders indefinitely.

    • Salah says

      May 27, 2014 at 10:23 pm

      “The Bro’s have been out of power before but survived just the same.”

      They’ve never been in power before. They’ve been trying to for the last 85 years or so, and when they finally got in power they lost it in one year.
      Not only the MB in Egypt is dead, but political Islam in Egypt is also dead.

    As written in the Hebrew-Inspired Scriptures(Not Greek, meaning that everything in Greek must be found and proven in the Hebrew Old Covenant or it’s not true, such as the name “Jesus” by Petrus Galtinus added in the 1300’s to honor “ZEUS,” which are his words, NOT mine! In fact, now “we the people” through our “women alone” have placed “under” US the ONLY leader over(UNDER) Anglo-Saxons and Jews predicted in the Books of the Law: Deuteronomy 17:15 states clearly that “we the people”(Anglo-Saxons & Jews) would put over(UNDER) in the “FORBIDDEN FOREIGNER”(NON-ANGLO-SAXON & NOT DONE SINCE GETTING THROWN OUT OF EDEN FOR THE SAME THING, LIKE 6,000 YEARS AGO)! OUCH! p.s. NEXT: The prophetic two-witnesses of Revelation, chapters 7 & 11, so as Clint Eastwood made famous: Do YOU feel luck today? Well, do YOU punk? In other words, 100% DEATH for ALL of US, perhaps beginning as early as Wednesday, September 24, 2014, which is the correct date for Yahweh’s(YHWH’S) Annual Feast of Trumpets(Spiritual WAR) against us! NOTHING NEW UNDER THE SON MEN, YOU TOO again will be held equally accountable; WATCH…
