Egypt Unrest:Morsi Supporters Shot Dead In Cairo

At least 40 people have been killed in a shooting incident in Cairo, amid ongoing unrest over the removal of Egypt's President Mohammed Morsi.

The Muslim Brotherhood says its members were fired on outside a barracks where they believe he is being held, during a sit-in demanding his reinstatement.

However the army said a "terrorist group" had tried to storm the barracks.

Mr Morsi, an Islamist and Egypt's first freely elected leader, was ousted by the army last week after mass protests.

Scores of people have been killed since the unrest began last weekend.

Mr Morsi is believed to be detained at the Presidential Guard Club, in the eastern Nasr City district of the capital.

His supporters - many of them members of the Muslim Brotherhood movement he comes from - have been staging a sit-in there demanding his reinstatement.

After Monday morning's violence, the hardline Salafist Nour party - which had supported Mr Morsi's removal - said it was withdrawing from talks to choose an interim prime minister, describing the shooting incident as a "massacre".

'Weapons seized'

Both the Brotherhood and the Egyptian health ministry said at least 40 people had been killed, including an army officer. Some 300 people were reported to be wounded.

TV channels broadcast images of dead and injured people being taken to a makeshift hospital in the Rabaa al-Adawiya mosque, where Brotherhood supporters have been based.

But there were conflicting reports over how the violence unfolded.

The Muslim Brotherhood said the army had raided its sit-in at about 04:00 (02:00 GMT) as protesters were performing dawn prayers.

"The protesters were taken unawares and the troops used live ammunition, bird shot and tear gas," protester Alaa el-Hadidi told the BBC.

Another protester, Mahmud al-Shilli, told AFP news agency that troops had used tear gas but that a group of men in civilian clothing had then opened fire.

"The thugs came from the side. We were the target," he told AFP.

The Freedom and Justice Party, the Brotherhood's political wing - which took nearly half the seats in last year's historic election -called on Egyptians to stage an "uprising" in response to the incident, against "those trying to steal their revolution with tanks".

It also urged "the international community and international groups and all the free people of the world to intervene to stop further massacres" and to stop Egypt becoming "a new Syria".

But in a statement read on state media, the army blamed the shooting on "an armed terrorist group" that had tried to storm the barracks.

It said an army officer was among those killed and that a number of others were wounded, some critically.

The statement said some 200 people had been arrested and were found to have weapons, ammunition and petrol bombs.

The army later said two soldier had been kidnapped by Morsi supporters.

It said that in two separate instances, men armed with guns and knives had forced the soldiers into vehicles.

Political setback

Mr Morsi was ousted on Wednesday by the military, which said it was responding to the demands of the people.

Protesters had been demanding that Mr Morsi step down, saying he had failed to tackle Egypt's economic problems and was becoming increasingly authoritarian.

He was replaced on Thursday by Adly Mansour -the head of the Supreme Constitutional Court. He has pledged to hold elections soon, but has as yet given no date for them.

The army has insisted it does not want to remain in power.

On Sunday, tens of thousands of both supporters and opponents of Mr Morsi rallied in many Egyptian cities.

The BBC's Jim Muir in Cairo says that despite the conflicting reports about Monday's violence, it is clear that blood has been shed, which will aggravate an already critical situation.

The withdrawal of the ultra-conservative Nour party from the political transition talks will also set back efforts to appoint a new prime minister, our correspondent adds.

Party spokesman Nadder Bakkar said it had "decided to withdraw immediately from all negotiations in response to the massacre".

Though the Islamist party had backed the army-led "roadmap" to new elections, it had blocked the appointment of two potential prime ministers because of concerns over the shape of a new constitution.

Islam: Toward A One-World Government

   In a series of articles about what he calls the “Power Elite” and the Muslim Brotherhood, Dr. Dennis Cuddy makes a strong argument in favor of the idea that Islam is being used across the globe to bring about certain ends throughout society. If that is true – and I would concur – then we need only ask two questions:

1 Who is using Islam?

2. For what purpose is Islam being used?

If we consider Islam and how it has literally been given free rein to move across the globe creating terror and change wherever it goes, the reality becomes clear. Islam is allowed to grow and move at will. Leaders of nations (including the United States) appear unable to stop it, ignoring the obvious and even making excuses for Islam.

Leaders and other elected officials seem confused and inept. They seem to think that by giving into Islam’s demands, Islam itself will quiet down and take its position within civilized society. This has never been the case, yet this attitude prevails among them.

This approach has obviously not worked. The more our leaders give into Islam, the more demands adherents of Islam make. We are left to conclude that either these leaders are too vapid to realize this or they have intentionally taken such a position toward Islam. In doing so, they have allowed Islam to prosper.

Cuddy argues that Islam is being used today (as it was during Hitler’s day), by what he calls the Power Elite. This group, variously referred to as the Power Elite, the Global Elite, the Bilderbergers, the Illuminati, as well as many other designations, is using Islam for one purpose only. It is to create continual global destabilization in order to bring about a one-world order.

If we look no further than North Africa and what is happening in the Middle East right now, we see this truth borne out. Egypt’s Mubarak was taken out by force.

Originally, the Muslim Brotherhood said they would remain apart from the elections there. They reneged and even offered their own candidate –Morsi. We know who “won” the election and Morsi was installed as president. However, he is nothing more than a Muslim Brotherhood puppet, allowed to be in power by the elite. If he gets too big for his britches, he can and will be replaced…with another Muslim Brotherhood puppet.

The same occurred with Gaddafi of Libya. He was ousted and replaced with individuals who are loyal either to Al-Qaeda or the Muslim Brotherhood (ultimately, to Islam). Turmoil has occurred in that entire region of North Africa and will continue.

Now sights are set on Syria with the intended ousting of Assad. Who do you think he’ll be replaced with when all is said and done? We know that Obama has played his part as well, taking orders from the Global Elite and because of his Muslim background, he can relate to Muslims quite easily.

In the end, that entire region (surrounding Israel) of the world will be controlled by Islam, which is in turn, controlled by the Global Elite. Islam is made up of the best soldiers because they are not afraid to die. They actually look forward to it believing that in death, they will receive their promised reward from Allah. Who could ask for better soldiers?

The Global Elite is using Islam to create new regimes. Again, this is exactly what Hitler attempted to achieve. We know that he was using the Grand Mufti in Jerusalem to help him in his plot to overthrow and even oust Jews from Israel. His sights were set on the Temple Mount as are the Global Elite’s.

By the way, in spite of the fact that Islam is literally doing all the grunt work (and being rewarded by the Global Elite with Islamic leaders placed in power), at some point in time, the Global Elite will step in and remove all the Islamic leaders, replacing them with their own. It is far easier to remove and replace leaders from the same type of regime (Islamic) who are already loyal to the Global Elite, than to go in and replace one leader at a time. This is, in fact, what they are doing now in preparation for the future one-world government. It is not a coincidence that Islam itself is working toward a global caliphate (world rule) where Sharia law will be the rule of law.

Are world leaders really that oblivious that they are unable to see what Islam is doing? No, they are merely pretending to be so, in order that the goals of the Global Elite will be brought to fruition. Islam is a very much needed and useful scourge on global society.

The goal of the Global Elite is to keep the world in a constant state of upheaval as they continue to sweep us toward globalization. The average person’s level of fear and uncertainty will continue to grow. Because of this, they will look increasingly to government for answers. The government will oblige with the proviso that in exchange, certain rights must be given up. Too many people will give them up gladly in exchange for the promise of security, security that will never come.

Obama Unveils Africa’s New $7 Billion Power

US president Barack Obama at the weekend unveiled a $7 billion new US-led plan to increase access to electricity in Africa.

Obama swore to assist Africa in bringing “light where there is currently darkness.”

Obama made these remarks after visiting Robben Island, where Mandela, who is currently in hospital, spent almost two decades of his 27-year stay in jail.

Electricity generation in Africa is acutely inadequate and unreliable. According to Eco Power Africa, Nigeria for example, a vast nation of 150 million people, has a generating capacity of 4,000 MW.

“By comparison, New York City alone has a generating capacity of 13,000 MW. The shortfall encompasses both the generation and transmission infrastructure,” Eco Power Africa said in its website.

“This shortfall is persistent and structural, and the amount of capital required to ameliorate it is tremendous. Therefore, this problem will not be resolved anytime soon with the usual approach to generation.”

The lack of power in Africa is said to be the biggest obstruction to economic development in sub-Saharan Africa.

Tackling this difficulty will lead to large-scale wealth creation and release the region’s vast capacity.

Obama’s electricity plan, known as “Power Africa,” represents the kind of cross-Africa projects Obama is bent on achieving.

The US will invest $7 billion in the power plan, which will pay more attention to advancing more access to power in Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Liberia, Nigeria and Tanzania.

It is understood that big firms including General Electric and Symbion Power will put in an additional
$9 billion
