[Breitbart] Organizers of a rally planned for Washington, D.C. on Saturday in support of ousted Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi deny being part of the Muslim Brotherhood, or being Brotherhood supporters. The rally, they said during a news conference Friday, is about justice in Egypt.
A long record, in many cases tested in court, says otherwise.
The recently-formed Egyptian Americans for Democracy and Human Rights (EADHR) news conference featured Abdul Mawgoud Dardery, a spokesman for the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood's Freedom and Justice Party.
Dardery and other speakers decried the "military coup" in Egypt and called for Morsi's release after more than a month in custody.
"This is not about the Muslim Brotherhood. It is not even about Dr. Morsi, said Shaker Elsayed said in response to an Investigative Project on Terrorism question about Muslim Brotherhood connections.. Dr. Morsi happened to be from the Brotherhood, but it could have been anybody else. If we allow the rule of law to be broken and the democratic rules to be violated, it will happen to anybody and Egypt will never have stability, progress, investment, or a future. So we have nothing to do with your claims."
Last month, we showed how a similar rally that made no mention of the Brotherhood, but emphasized support for democracy, was a façade to hide support in the U.S. for the Islamist movement. A look at the players behind Saturday's rally shows another Brotherhood "Grand Deception" is afoot, despite organizers' denials.
