Egypt: Muslim Brotherhood says new constitution must be based on Sharia

What a surprise. "Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood says new constitution must be based on Islamic Shariah law," from the Associated Press, October 31 (thanks to Nichole):

CAIRO – Egypt's powerful Muslim Brotherhood says Islamic Shariah law must be the basis of Egypt's new constitution, and legislation must be based on Islamic penal code.

The Brotherhood said in a statement Wednesday that a country ruled by Shariah would not become a theocracy. President Mohammed Morsi comes from the Brotherhood....

Not a theocracy? Oh, well, then!

The 100-member Islamist-led panel tasked with drafting the new document has been facing heavy criticism, mostly from liberals who fear Islamization of Egypt through its work....

No kidding, really?


Editor's note:  The Muslim Brotherhood has an extensive, well-financed network here in the US...and their objective is the same as it is for Egypt.

The sword of the Islamic salafis is coming upon this land.
