Brotherhood plans Cairo march after crackdown

Islamist group calls for rally day after security forces killed hundreds of Morsi supporters and cleared sit-ins.


Supporters of Egypt's deposed president Mohamed Morsi plan to march in the capital, Cairo, and reiterated that they are committed to peaceful struggle one day after hundreds of their supporters were killed in a bloody crackdown.

"Marches are planned this afternoon from al-Iman mosque to protest the deaths," a coalition of Morsi's supporters said in a statement on Thursday, referring to a mosque in Cairo's Nasr City neighbourhood.

World leaders condemned the attack on protesters who had been camped out for nearly seven weeks calling for the reinstatement of Morsi, Egypt's first democratically-elected president. He was deposed by the army on July 3.

Hmmmm......cost to have 100   525 of your group killed during the Egyptian military action toward clearing out the demonstrations?

$2.5 million......

Have the Muslim Brotherhood call for mass demonstrations in the streets afterwards......providing an even more target-rich environment?

Priceless!
