Egypt’s Mohammed Morsi to stand trial for 'acts of violence'
The Globe and Mail ^ | September 1, 2013 | Rooters

Deposed Egyptian president Mohammed Morsi is to stand trial on charges of committing and inciting violence, a state prosecutor decided on Sunday, an escalation of the army-backed authorities’ crackdown on his Muslim Brotherhood.

The prosecutor, Hesham Barakat, referred Morsi and 14 other Brotherhood members to a Cairo criminal court on charges of “committing acts of violence, and inciting killing and thuggery”, the state news agency reported.

The comment "within days" is found often concerning this press release.

The Egyptian military means business, and they want to slam Obama's buddy in a deep dark hole while it's fresh in Obama's face and the public mind.

Ah, the irony, eh? Islam. A ‘’religion’’ founded by a thug, that commits thuggish acts as it's sacrament's and now presumes to judge one of it's own as a ''thug''.

On this side of the pond I'd settle for applying the doctrine of vicarious liability for dealing with any and all violence as a direct result of the talk coming out of the Obama Administration.

A public trial and humiliation of Morsi may not be such a good long term idea. Especially if he is allowed to speak and remains defiant. No end to the trouble in Egypt or the entire region.

The crown jewel would be revelations about Benghazi that could be very damning for team 0bama.

As if the Muslims will get along if Egypt kisses Morsi's rear. However it is sure to cause trouble for Obama and Rats here and in the West, so Egypt should go for it.

Or just “disappear”. Translation: Taken far out in the desert and be given a bullet in the head and left there.

They better be careful. Morsi is Obama’s chosen one to lead the Muslim Brotherhood to a complete sharia controlled Egypt. Obama will get mad and lob a few missiles.

Probably, and the way to do it is bring Morsi down with believable human rights charges exactly the way Mubarak was screwed, then Morsi will confess his guilt under "questioning" and admit bribes from Obama, and treason to Egypt.

The evidence already exists publicly, and it will make it it much harder for Obama and the White House/State Rats to govern.

He will be required to give testimony against those fomenting and financing insurrection and civil war in Egypt, the Muslim Brotherhood, Obama and US State department.

Notice that the Egyptian military has increased the cooperation and support of the Peace with Israel while the Rebels descend into antisemitic Islamic terrorism. The military are after Obama as much as the Muslim Brotherhood.
