Ikhwanweb :: The Muslim Brotherhood Official English Website

Forum on the Muslim Brothers: Should they be repressed by the Egyptian government?

We will have 3 groups (please see below). The group representing the Muslim Brotherhood and the Egyptian government will have 15 minutes each to present their case. Then we will take a 5 minutes (or longer) for the group representing the American government to deliberate. I will film you and it will be posted on the blog (of course, with your permission).
