Egyptian Government Takes Off the Gloves
Arutz Sheva ^ | 1/8/13 | Dalit Halevi and Elad Benari

Egypt is taking off the gloves when it comes to handling the Muslim Brotherhood’s ongoing protests.

The country’s Minister of Information, Durriyah Sharaf Al Din, announced in a statement to the press on Wednesday that the Egyptian government has decided to act decisively against “terrorism” by rioters who threaten Egypt’s national security and do not receive support of citizens.

Sharaf Al Din noted that acts of violence are unacceptable, and given the public support for the struggle waged by the government against terrorism and violence, the government has decided to take steps to put an end to the anarchy.

Mohamed Ibrahim, the Interior Minister in President Adly Mansour’s interim government, was given the authority to take all necessary measures in accordance with the law.

The meaning of the statement by the Minister of Information is that the government of Egypt is planning to start dealing harshly with the Muslim Brotherhood and disperse the demonstrators on its behalf in Cairo, in order to allow political stability and begin work on the new constitution, thus preparing the ground for new elections for the parliament and the presidency.

Egypt’s National Defense Council warned supporters of ousted President Mohammed Morsi this week that security forces would take “decisive and firm” action if protesters overstepped their rights.

The statement comes after 72 Morsi supporters were killed in violence at the Rabaa al-Adawiya protest site in Cairo early on Saturday.

Arrest the leaders and organizers, the rest will go
home.

Although at this stage I wouldn’t be surprised to
see martyr operations.

Oh how I pray that secular-friendly Muslims use this chance to expunge the world of the Salafis.

It’s nice to see a country doing the right thing, unlike ours.

Thanks Eleutheria5.
The country's Minister of Information, Durriyah Sharaf Al Din, announced in a statement to the press on Wednesday that the Egyptian government has decided to act decisively against "terrorism" by rioters... Mohamed Ibrahim, the Interior Minister in President Adly Mansour’s interim government, was given the authority to take all necessary measures in accordance with the law... the government of Egypt is planning to start dealing harshly with the Muslim Brotherhood and disperse the demonstrators on its behalf in Cairo, in order to allow political stability and begin work on the new constitution, thus preparing the ground for new elections for the parliament and the presidency.

You know this is really screwing up Obama plans...to make Israel capitulate to the Palestinians demands ..

Surround Israel with MB ruled countries

Egypt to the south, Lebanon to the northwest, Syria to the northeast, Jordan to the east...

Without MB ruling Egypt...his plans are null and void...

Funny in a surreal way, how Putin is now a better friend to Israel than Obama...by supporting Assad who pretty much did not screw with Israel, his hand was bitten too many times...he learned his lesson..

OTOH the MB run Syria would need to have their hand taken off to keep the peace..
