The European Union (EU) on Sunday denounced the death sentence handed down to Egypt’s ousted president Mohammed Morsi and at least 100 others, noting the penalty stemmed from a flawed trial, according to AFP.

“The court decision to seek the death penalty… was taken at the end of a mass trial that was not in line with Egypt’s obligations under international law,” the EU’s top diplomat Federica Mogherini said in a statement.

She added that Egypt has to guarantee defendants’ rights to a fair trial and to an independent investigation, noting the EU believes the sentence will be revised upon appeal.

“The EU opposes capital punishment under all circumstances,” Mogherini said. “The death penalty is cruel and inhumane.” …

The EU needs more Muslim Beotherhood?

The West is radicalizing Islam, one Dr. spock at a time.

They should hang the mobro SOB twice.

Egypt and the world were better off with the autocratic Mubarak in charge. Those people can’t handle democracy...
Their version is one man, one vote.. ONE TIME.

Morsi and his Muslim Brotherhood were responsible for the death of Anwar Sadat, the last Egyptian who wanted peace with Israel. Guess that is not good enough for the socialist commies in Europe. So what do you want? Your cities burn from the Muslim immigrants, your women are raped, you accept sharia law, and now you complain in their favor? The EU must have a death wish, just like the US thanks to the feckless fool on the hill.

Morsi CRUCIFIED Christians in downtown Cairo, didn’t he?

Of course, that’s why Hussein has a mancrush on him.

But the EU says he shouldn’t be executed?

“the EU’s top diplomat Federica Mogherini “

I had a federica mogherini on my butt once. Penicillin got rid of it.

[make no mistake]

“The United States also expressed alarm Sunday at the death sentences, saying it has “consistently spoken out against the practice of mass trials and sentences”.

So try him individually and then give him capital punishment.

[lavaroise]

Meh. I do not think this will affect France’s sale of Rafales. Lol

[Clinging Bitterly]

I oppose capital punishment for ordinary criminal convictions but waging war on modern civilization is another matter. I’ll be pleased to see him fry.

[dasboot]

I denounce the denouncers!

rumor has it that Morsi is a swinger
