Morsi trial

dimanche 22 décembre 2013 à 13:00

Morsi now faces absurd charges of conspiring with Hamas and Hezbollah.

The Muslim Brotherhood is a Sunni theocratist group. Hezbollah is a Shi'ite group, militant but more concerned with defending Shi'ites' political interests than with religion. The idea that they would work together is as ridiculous as the idea that Saddam Hussein and al Qa'ida would work together — but Dubya found it useful to claim they did.

As for the charges of escaping from prison, at that time state agents went around arresting (and sometimes killing) people for political reasons. Zero-tolerance for escapes, and immunity for the captors, is hardly justice.
