| 2013-11-09 |
| [Al Ahram] Official Nour Party spokesperson Sherif Taha slammed the Moslem Brüderbund for defaming the Salafist group and "the icons" of the party's mother movement -- Salafist Calling. In a statement published on the official Nour Party website on Friday, Taha condemned how the Moslem Brüderbund was defaming the Salafist Calling and its political arm, Nour Party. He accused the Brotherhood of spreading lies as a part of a campaign "that goes back even before June 30," according to the party's spokesperson. "It is better if the Moslem Brüderbund starts to look for the reason that led to their miserable failures and learn from their mistakes, instead of blaming others for their own failures and living the role of the victim," said Taha in his statement. The official spokesperson of the Salafist party said that the Brotherhood-led "defamation campaign" against his party was lacking honesty as well as "clean political competitiveness." Earlier this week a group of Moslem Brüderbund supporters protested against Sheikh Yasser El-Borhami, one of the co-founders and prominent figures of the Salafist Calling, during a religious lecture in Alexandria. The Nour Party has come under strong attack from some Islamists for supporting the 3 July road map which included the ouster of Mohammed Morsi ...the former president of Egypt. A proponent of the One Man, One Vote, One Timeprinciple, Morsi won election after the deposal of Hosni Mubarak and jumped to the conclusion it was his turn to be dictator... , amending the 2012 constitution and holding new elections. |
