Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood calls for Jihad
Johnson! Stop the presses!! Around 6,000 Egyptian protesters and an expatriate minority stood for nearly four hours at the Syndicate of Journalists in Cairo at noon on Monday protesting the ongoing Israeli massacre of Gaza, calling for Israel's destruction and denouncing the Mubarak government, seen by many as complicit with Israel for refusing to allow Palestinians from the neighboring Gaza Strip into Egypt. "Eliminate fascist Israel before it eliminates you!" "Muhammad's army is coming" and "We are all Hamas" were a few slogans shouted by 6,000 protestors in solidarity with Palestinians undergoing the deadliest Israeli offensive in 60 years that so far has killed over 375 Palestinian civilians and wounded nearly 2000.
Many protesters argued that Israel's ruthless and unyielding massacre of Palestinians despite condemnation of the international community forfeits the Jewish State's right to exist in the Middle East. "Since Arab blood is cheap to Israel, Israel in turn means nothing to Arabs and must be destroyed," 32 year old protestor Abbas Hasan told AlArabiya.net. "We are not asking Israel to stop because we know it won't. Instead we demand that our government and arab leaders take up arms against this questionable racist state and eliminate it," he added.
