The Muslim Brotherhood English-language website Ikhwanweb reports Egyptians demonstrators in Cairo and Dakahlia are requesting that they the borders be opened to let them fight Israel. Muslim Brotherhood executive member praised the demonstrators and calls Arab regimes a ‘disgrace’. In recent years, the banned but tolerated seminal Islamist organization, whose ideology has spawned the most violent Jihadi groups, has jumped on the bandwagon of Arab liberals calling for democratic reforms and has been trying to rebrand itself as ‘moderate’.

While the Israeli Occupation Forces are escalating their aggressions on the Palestinian and Lebanese people, demonstrations extended to include almost all main Egyptian cities in protest of the Israeli attacks which targeted the infrastructure in both countries, as well as women and children.
02  Ikhwanweb covered demonstrations in Cairo and Dakahlia cities, where Egyptians turned up in large numbers to protest the aggression. At Al Azhar Mosque in Cairo and main mosques in Dakahlia, thousands of demonstrators expressed their staunch support to the position of Hizbullah in Lebanon and the Palestinian resistance. They strongly criticized the Arab regimes’ passive attitude and demanded to open the borders to enable them of fighting alongside their Palestinian and Lebanese brethren. Protestors also demanded the severing all relations with the "Zionist enemy" and expelling its ambassador in Cairo.
03  Dr. Abdul Monem Abul Fotouh, member of the MB Executive Bureau, praised the demonstrations as a vehicle for the public to express their anger towards the "Zionist crimes", at a time when the international community connive with Israel by keeping silent. He lamented that the world has been moved by the abduction of only three Israeli soldiers while turning a blind eye to 10000 Palestinians in Israeli prisons. Abul Fotouh accused the international community of bias against Muslims and double standards when dealing with their grievances.
