| 2011-04-17 |
| [Ennahar] An Egyptian administrative court on Saturday ordered the dissolution of the National Democratic Party (NDP), former ruling party, and the seizure of its assets, said a judicial source. "The tribunal ordered the dissolution of the NDP and the seizure of its money. Its headquarters and its buildings will be transferred to the government," the source said. Conducted over three decades by Hosni Mubarak, ...The former President-for-Life of Egypt, dumped by popular demand in early 2011... the NDP is trying to survive the popular revolt that toppled former president February 11. Many of its former executives are under investigation for corruption, and many are already behind bars. |

| #2 I wonder if we can find a judge to do the same thing with the Rethuglycon and Dummycheat parties. Let the Tea Party be the majority party, and the rest of the "minority" parties can suck their exhaust. |

| #1 This leaves the MB as the largest political group in the country. Hopefully the NDP will reorganize enough to prevent a one-party state, but odds now favor the MB getting the next government. |
