I'm sure Lurch will get right on this

More than a dozen American aid workers have been sentenced to prison in Egypt after a court convicted them of stirring up unrest in the country.

At least 16 Americans were among the 43 NGO workers who were today found guilty of illegally using foreign funds and given jail sentences of up to five years.

Most of the Americans left Egypt last year, and are extremely unlikely to serve any prison time.

The convicted aid workers include Sam LaHood, son of the U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood, who was sentenced in absentia to five years in prison.

The court in Cairo also issued judgements against the U.S. non-profit groups where the defendants worked, including the International Republican Institute, the National Democratic Institute and Freedom House[More...]

Washington, D.C. – Today, U.S. Rep. Ed Royce (R-CA), Chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, issued the following statement condemning the verdicts rendered by Egypt against international and Egyptian non-governmental organizations (NGOs):

“This is another assault on Egyptian civil society. As if these trials were not bad enough, the Egyptian government is pushing a new law targeting NGOs that will further suffocate civil society. President Morsi should immediately reverse course and allow for Egyptian domestic and international NGOs to work toward a democratic and secure Egypt.”

And the Muslim Brotherhood and their supporters are behind most attacks

Hundreds of journalists have come under attack in Egypt in the two years since a popular revolution toppled the Mubarak regime, according to a new report which experts fear could mean a chill wind blew in with the Arab Spring.

Some 309 attacks, including three murders, 100 assaults and 42 cases of temporary imprisonment are documented in a study prepared by the Almasry (Egyptian) Studies and Information Center. Three journalists have been murdered since January 2011. Prior to that, the last journalist killed in Egypt was in 1992, according to the Committee to Protect Journalists.

"The evidence shows that most of these assaults are being committed by supporters of the Muslim Brotherhood, who have established a months-long pattern of intimidating and harassing the news media," CPJ spokesman Sherif Mansour said after a recent wave of attacks on reporters.

He stabbed him because he hated Americans.

The American Mahmoud Badr chose to stab was Chris Stone and like, well read this:

The man who stabbed an American in Cairo on Thursday says he was motivated by a hatred of the United States.

Mahmoud Badr, 30, who holds a bachelor's degree in commerce, was arrested on Thursday after stabbing American academic Chris Stone in the neck outside the US embassy in Cairo.

Badr told interrogators that he took his mother's knife, travelled to Cairo by train from Kafr El-Sheikh, and went to the US embassy in search of an American citizen to kill, Al-Ahram Arabic news website reported on Friday[...]

Chris Stone was recently appointed head of the US-based Center for Arabic Study Abroad (CASA) by the American University in Cairo (AUC).

He has been praised for his pro-Palestine views and his interest in Arab culture.

Egyptian Official: American Stabbed Outside US Embassy In Cairo

He was stabbed in the neck:

CAIRO – An Egyptian security official says an American national was attacked and stabbed outside the U.S. Embassy in Cairo.

The official says an assailant attacked the American with a knife as he was standing in front of the embassy building in the Cairo suburb of Garden City on Thursday.[More...]

France 24 is reporting the man was stabbed in the neck when he came out of the US embassy.

Police guarding the embassy managed to arrest the assailant, described only as “an unemployed man” by the security official, who requested anonymity.

They are arresting journalists that might report, you know, negative facts.

Twitchy:

utch journalist Rena Netjes is reportedly free after her arrest in Egypt on Monday. The #FreeRena hashtag took off on Tuesday after the Twitterverse learned she had been detained ”under allegations of espionage.”

Netjes was working on a story involving youth unemployment and according to a phone interview with the Dutch news outlet Een Vandaag she was apprehended by the owner of a coffee shop who had asked to see her press card and passport before taking it to the police.

After the citizen’s arrest, Netjes was reportedly charged with not carrying her press ID. Daily News Egypt reports, “According to Netjes, the police did not want her writing stories which revolve around negative events in the country.”

I love when the media calls events like this "sectarian violence".

Two sides, each with their own grievances. Who's to say who's in the right?

I think they do this because they find themselves in a leftist dilemma. Leftists see the world through the lens of power. The haves vs. the have-nots. That is their moral outlook on life. It has nothing to do with right or wrong, proper vs. improper action, only who has power and who doesn't have power.

Christianity = West = power = bad. Islam = third world = no power = good.

Which is a problem for them when it comes to Christians vs. Muslims in the Muslim world. It's just hard for them to wrap their narrow minds around a reality in which Muslims have the power and Christians are a persecuted and powerless minority.

So, when they come upon this situation they resort to the thing that is easiest: they're all guilty. Just two sides engaged in cyclical violence. Why can't everybody just get along?

Except that Coptic Christians in Egypt aren't terrorizing Muslims by burning down their mosques, and gang raping their women while screaming, "Jesus is Lord."

The video below is fairly disturbing, even if it is not as graphic as advertized. It claims to be a "gang rape" over at LiveLeak, but if a rape does occur the video shuts off before that point.

What it does show is a gang of men screaming "Allahu akbar!" as they assault two Christian women, beating them, and tearing their clothes off as the women cry and scream. The footage is purportedly from outside the Coptic cathedral which was victimized yesterday by a mob involved in "sectarian violence".

I did not come back from watching it with a cheery outlook on life. You've been warned.

There's a new fragrance coming to the Arab Spring in Egypt and its not a field of fresh wildflowers either.

al-Arabia: Egypt’s Jan. 25 revolution has been “hijacked” by Islamists and the country is “collapsing on the political and economic levels,” leading opposition figure, Mohamed ElBaradei said Monday.
“The revolution has been hijacked and that is why we are suffering today. Egypt is now collapsing on the political and economic levels and we are paying a dear price,” said ElBaradei, who is the coordinator of the country’s opposition liberal and secular alliance, the National Salvation Front (NSF), in the closing session of a conference on the country’s woeful economic condition.
He lamented the “lack of rationalism” in the policies of Islamist President Mohammed Mursi.

“Problems are no longer seen rationally,” he said, expressing fears over the “obvious collapse of the state” as seen in its inability to maintain order. “There is no executive power and no legislative power. All those are signs that the state is falling apart,” the former chief of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) added.

Accused thieves lynched by angry mob:

The killings came a week after the attorney general's office encouraged civilians to arrest lawbreakers and hand them over to police.

Arab Spring!

The weapons that helped Libyan rebels oust dictator Muammar Qaddafi are turning up for sale at clandestine auctions in Egypt’s lawless Sinai Desert, where shadowy buyers purchase firearms for Al Qaeda and Hamas operatives....

The hosts of these auctions aren’t just doing it for the money, the source said. Al Qaeda-linked jihadists are becoming more and more influential in the region, and playing a large role in who shows up for the auctions and who leaves with the bombs, anti-tank missiles, rocket-propelled grenades and automatic weapons that are peddled there.

Egyptian police said Saturday they arrested four students who filmed themselves publicly dancing in their underwear, as more people around the world emulate a viral dance craze called the “Harlem Shake.”

ROPMA:

A group of Christian priests from a local Coptic church in Egypt were told to convert to Islam or face death, according to an Arabic news site.

The incident, which comes in the midst of continued persecution and pressure on Egypt’s Christian community, took place this week in the town of Safaga, near the Red Sea, the El Balad site reported.

According to El Balad, the threats are from a new group in Egypt, Jihad al-Kufr, whose name translates to Jihad against non-believers or non-Muslims. The group targets non-Muslims, and reportedly pressures them to convert to Islam.

“It’s not the first time. This is happening every day,” said Adel Guindy, president of Coptic Solidarity and a member of Egypt’s Coptic community who travels between Paris and Cairo. “This one incident caught the attention of the news agencies, but there are worse things happening to the Christians every day in Egypt,” he said.[More..]

Say what?

Egyptian authorities on Thursday detained a member of the Black Bloc militant group suspected of planning to carry out an Israeli-directed sabotage plan, the official MENA news agency said.

One person “belonging to the Black Bloc organization was arrested inside a building overlooking Tahrir Square carrying Israeli plans to target petrol companies and vital installations, maps of these places and instructions on setting fire to some places,” MENA reported.

I would bet on Morsi's backup plan rather than the anarchists.

Terrorists vs Anarchists:

The Islamist party of the Jihad Organization and Jama'a al-Islamiya has said the ways of dealing with banditry specified in the Quran must be applied to Black Bloc members, which means they must be killed.

“God orders us to kill, crucify or cut off the hands and feet of those who spread mischief on earth,” said Jama'a al-Islamiya Mufti Abdel Akhar Hammad, citing a verse from the Quran. “The president must give that order.”

Mohamed Samra of the Jihad Organization said that the Black Bloc group is financed from abroad and must be killed, and that the National Salvation Front members must be arrested and charged with incitement to riot.

Last week, Cairo witnessed the first appearance groups describing themselves as the Black Bloc. Decked in black and wearing masks, they clashed with police forces at Qasr al-Aini Street on Thursday. They said they would fight with the police if it targeted protesters. Previously unknown, the Black Bloc's goals remain unclear and its members generally avoid media contact.[More....]

[Al-Sharq Al-Awsat:] "Have you found suitable employment in Egypt? Has your life reached a point of normalcy following your return to the country after years living abroad?"

[Al-Zawahiri:] "No... I have not found employment opportunities despite my high degree of qualification and although I pioneered two new architectural theories. This is due to tightening security regarding myself and my siblings on the part of Islamist ideologues. The majority of us spent more than 15 years without an income, and now, they are intimidating people against us to the point that we cannot do anything."

[Al-Sharq Al-Awsat:] "Some people are of the view that Salafi-jihadis and their activities always cause problems for ruling regimes and the international community, particularly the West and the U.S. Do you agree?"

This video is labelled "Egyptian Snipers Shooting from Rooftops" in Port Said. But a) they don't appear to be snipers; and b) whoever they are shooting at is shooting back. I'll point out one other thing: the people on the roof appear to be wearing civilian clothes, yet the flag they are flying is clearly the Egyptian flag -- not the black flag of al Qaeda.

Protests are turning violent in Egypt and those doing the protests are mainly liberals dissatisfied with the Islamist government. I know we've run a few posts showing al Qaeda flags mixed in with them, but if push comes to shove who do you think the Salafis are going to back? An Islamist president or the infidels protesting him?

Very much related:

A man was shot dead on Monday in a fifth day of violence in Egypt that has killed 50 people and prompted the Islamist president to declare a state of emergency in an attempt to end a wave of unrest sweeping the Arab world's biggest nation.

Emergency rule announced by President Mohamed Mursi on Sunday covers the cities of Port Said, Ismailia and Suez. The army has already been deployed in two of those cities and cabinet approved a measure to let soldiers arrest civilians....

Thousands of mourners joined funerals in Port Said for the latest victims in the Mediterranean port city. Seven people were killed there on Sunday when residents joined marches to bury 33 others who had been killed a day earlier, most by gunshot wounds in a city where arms are rife.

Several Islamist and jihadi groups have called for a demonstration outside the French embassy in Cairo, in protest over France's campaign against jihadis in Mali. The demonstration is slated to be held January 18, following Friday prayers[today..ed]. The groups, which include the General Islamic Movement (Al-tayyar al-islami al-'am), a coalition of Islamist groups; the Hazem Abu Isma'il Ultras; and the Salafi-jihadi movement, have issued their calls via their Facebook pages, among other venues[...]

The Salafi-jihadi movement, for its part, confirmed that its leaders and members will attend the demonstrations. A statement on their websites read: "At your service, Mali, the state of Islam! The infidel states of the West continue to pick fights in our Muslim countries with the soldiers of the devil, hoping to extinguish the light of the state of Islam, but how wrong they are! If Allah sows [something], who can reap [it]?"

The Salafi-jihadi leaders who confirmed attendance include Muhammad Al-Zawahiri[al-Qaeda #1' bro..ed], Ahmad Salama Mabrouk, Mirjan Salem, Tawfiq Al-'Afani, and others.

I wouldn't be surprised if Zawahiri's group and the others, again, demand the release of the no eyed bitch during the Islamic Rage boys demonstration today.

Oh wait

New York January 3, 2013--The Committee to Protect Journalists is alarmed by a series of investigations into independent Egyptian newspapers on accusations of insulting the president or reporting false news. Some newspapers and media professionals face formal charges in connection to their critical reporting, according to news reports.

"There is a growing trend of targeting independent and critical voices under President Mohamed Morsi's government, which is especially worrying in light of a lack of protection for the press under the new constitution," said Sherif Mansour, CPJ's Middle East and North Africa program coordinator. "Egypt is taking a large step back toward Mubarak-era practices."

Today, Magdi Algallad, editor of independent daily newspaper Al-Watan, was charged with insulting the president--a criminal offense--in connection with published cartoons, according to the newspaper. Wednesday, Al-Masry al-Youm, one of Egypt's leading independent dailies, said it is being investigated by the prosecutor-general following a complaint from the president's office, which accused it of publishing false news. Also Wednesday, the prosecutor-general referred Abdel-Halim Qandil, editor of independent weekly Sawt al-Umma, to the North of Giza prosecutor for official investigation, according to news reports. The accusations relate to an article Qandil wrote in October under the title "You are a liar, Morsi." [More..]

Because the terror group is a real political and military force.

Arab spring just keeps on giving!

[E]gypt’s ambassador to Lebanon said his country will pursue a relationship with Hezbollah, a “real political and military force,” The Daily Star reported Saturday. If implemented, the decision would constitute a dramatic policy shift from that of the former Hosni Mubarak administration.

Egypt’s relations with Hezbollah, a Shi’ite Islamic group that is considered a terror organization by the United States, have been strained, in large part, by Cairo’s 1979 peace accord with Israel. The ambassador’s comments on a possible Hezbollah-Egyptian rapprochement came on the heels of the passage of the controversial Muslim Brotherhood-backed constitution by President Mohammed Morsi last week.

Speaking from his office in Beirut, Ashraf Hamdy told the Lebanese news source that Egypt’s new foreign policy objectives include the need to explore fresh modes of communications, which means keeping regional contacts “tight,” even with its enemies.

As you may know, Hezbollah is a US Designated Foreign Terror Organization. Providing services to them is illegal. In other words, I bet Randy Bush is happy about Egypt working with Hezbollah. he hearts Hezbollah and child porn.
