Exiled Muslim Brotherhood members may head to Malaysia, says report

Members of the Brotherhood may be headed to Malaysia and Turkey, after being expelled from Qatar. — Reuters picKUALA LUMPUR, Sept 16 — Members of Egypt’s outlawed Muslim Brotherhood may be headed to Malaysia and Turkey, after being expelled from Qatar over the weekend, according to a recent news report.

Arabic international newspaperAsharq Al-Awsat quoted a senior Brotherhood member as claiming that the exiled members are likely to head to either country as they already have visas or residency permits there.

International Muslim Brotherhood Organisation secretary-general Ibrahim Mounir told the London-based paper that the documentation already available to their members would “make their living or residing there an easy matter”.

The Brotherhood — which was outlawed in Egypt following the ouster of President Mohamed Mursi — claimed on Saturday that seven of its members residing in Qatar were asked to leave the country.

Egypt’s Interior Minister Mohamed Ibrahim on Sunday was reported to have told a news conference that they are expecting Qatar to ask more than seven members of the Brotherhood “fugitives” to leave.

Turkish news portal Haberler.com quoted an Egyptian diplomatic source as saying that Qatar’s decision came after pressure from the United States, Saudi Arabia and other Gulf nations demanding a “serious” stance against some Brotherhood leaders.

Egyptian authorities have been on the hunt for members of the Muslim Brotherhood, who have been blamed for mass murders and violence and branded terrorists, especially after Mursi’s ouster by the-then army chief Abdel Fattah el-Sissi July 3, 2013.

Sissi, who eventually won a presidential election, vowed to stamp out the Brotherhood’s existence in Egypt, prompting authorities to arrest thousands of the organisation’s supporters. Hundreds have also reportedly been sentenced to death or long prison sentences.

Mursi, who was elected in 2012, is currently facing charges that include inciting violence and conspiring with a foreign power, and faces the death penalty if convicted.

How a cyber attack hampered Hong Kong protesters

Massive public protests taking place in Hong Kong over the past week are aimed at a new extradition law, known as the Fugitive Offenders Ordinance , that would see accused criminals extradited to mainland China to face prosecution. Hongkongers feel the law could be used to legalise the kidnapping of people who express views, and act in ways, that are not popular with the Chinese government . The same law could also be used to extradite tourists and visitors to China who are arrested on suspicion of having committed these crimes. Protesters want the bill scrapped. For now, debate of the legislation has been postponed . Organisers say one million people turned out for the protests, while police estimate the number was around 240,000. Either way, it was a significant number of Hong Kong’s 7.5 million population. Commentators on Twitter remarked on how well organised the protesters were. So, how did they do it? Protesters across the world are using n

In fact, no ideology has been as genocidal as Islam… Islam has killed more than 5 times the number of people killed by communism. In the total numbers we have updated over 80 million Christians killed by Muslims in 500 years in the Balkan states, Hungary, Ukraine, Russia. Then we have India. The official estimate number of Muslim slaughters of Hindus is 80 million. However, Muslim historian Firistha (b. 1570) wrote (in either Tarikh-i Firishta or  the Gulshan-i Ibrahim) that Muslims slaughtered over 400 million Hindus up to the peak of Islamic rule of India, bringing the Hindu population down from 600 mil to 200 million at the time. With these new additions the Muslim genocide of non-Muslims since the birth of Mohammed would be  over 669 million murders. Islam: The Religion of Genocide Perspective:   Think the Spanish inquisition was bad? More people are killed by Islamists each year than in all 350 years of the Spanish Inquisition* combined.
