Group seeks Release of Muslim Brotherhood father of Clinton employee

My comment: I find this absolutely amazing that instead of concentrating on actual human rights violations from an actual evil regime like Iran, who is holding and torturing prisoners just for their religious beliefs, that they are concentrating on the release of terroristic individuals. Where is the outcry for the Christians in Egypt? Why isn’t (at the very least) the Church crying out? Isaiah 5:20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

A left-wing “Human Rights” group is demanding that certain Muslim Brotherhood prisoners be released in Egypt. One such prisoner is the father of a man who once worked for the Clintons (yes, Bill and Hillary). These prisoners would be representatives of a group that seeks to completely deny the human rights of all citizens, especially those who don’t practice Islam or are… female. Human Rights Watch (HRW) wants the release of practitioners of Sharia Law, who were part of an apparatus that actually attempted to enforce it.

Essam el-Haddad: HRW seeks his release.

Human Rights Watch called Sunday on Egypt’s military-backed government to immediately release from detention five aides of ousted Islamist President Mohammed Morsi.

The New York-based advocacy group said in a statement that the five have been held at an undisclosed destination since July 3, the day when the military ousted Morsi after millions demonstrated demanding he step down.

It said the five were among nine close Morsi aides detained that day. The other four have been transferred to regular prisons and are facing criminal charges.

“What kind of roadmap is this where a military-backed government can brazenly disappear former presidential aides for 150 days without any explanation?” said Sarah Leah Whitson, Middle East and North Africa director at Human Rights Watch. She was referring to the roadmap for a post-coup return to democracy announced by military chief Gen. Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi when he toppled Morsi, Egypt’s first freely elected president.

“Forcibly disappearing people for months on end doesn’t inspire confidence that this government intends to follow the rule of law,” she added. “The prolonged enforced disappearance of anyone is a crime, pure and simple. The Egyptian authorities should immediately free them unconditionally.”
