Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood Admits To Be In Negotiations With The Military



Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood Admits It Has Been Negotiating With Army -- The Guardian

Former ruling party, whose leader Mohamed Morsi was removed by military, says talks stall over demand to have him reinstated

Senior officials in the Muslim Brotherhood have said that they are involved in behind-the-scenes negotiations with Egypt's army, despite a crackdown on the group's leadership following president Mohamed Morsi's removal last week.

The admission comes as the Brotherhood announced provocative plans to move their pro-Morsi street protests into spaces such as Tahrir Square, where many anti-Brotherhood protests have been held in recent weeks. It also follows signs that Egypt's interim regime will press on with forging a new government with or without Brotherhood support – after the liberal Mohamed ElBaradei was sworn in on Sunday as the country's new vice-president, and the new prime minister Hazem Beblawy appointed several new ministers to his cabinet.

My Comment: The Muslim Brotherhood no longer has control of the media narrative .... and now their money is being cut off. And while many are hoping that their leader Mohamed Morsi will be reinstated .... realistically .... this is not going to happen. In fact .... Morsi now has a very good chance of joining the previous Egyptian leader (Hosni Mubarak) in jail.
