An Egyptian court sentenced 682 alleged Islamists and Muslim Brotherhood leader Mohamed Badie to death... The same court in the southern province of Minya also reversed 492 of 529 death sentences it passed in March, commuting most of those to life in prison... The crackdown has extended to secular-leaning dissidents who supported Morsi's overthrow but have since turned on the army-installed regime... the April 6 youth movement that spearheaded the 2011 revolt which toppled strongman Hosni Mubarak, following a complaint accusing it of defaming Egypt and colluding with foreign parties.IOW, we can expect commutations on these death sentences as well. This approach used to work very well for Jordan's King Hussein -- sentence to death, or to long prison terms, then the King would commute the sentences.
Let me know when several hundred are executed, then
I’ll know they are taking out the trash seriously.
