Egypt is showing how to "get er done".

CAIRO (Reuters) - An Egyptian court sentenced 183 supporters of the outlawed Muslim Brotherhood to death on Monday on charges of killing police officers, part of a sustained crackdown by authorities on Islamists.

The men were convicted of playing a role in the killings of 16 policemen in the town of Kardasa in August, 2013 during the upheaval that followed the army's ouster of Islamist president Mohamed Mursi. Thirty-four were sentenced in absentia.

Egypt has mounted one of the biggest crackdowns in its modern history on the Brotherhood since the political demise of Mursi, the country's first democratically-elected president.

    One has to wonder how long it will take decent people in the region to realize that Israel would be a valuable recognized ally in the power struggle with fundamentalist islam.
    Freedom and a submissive populace cannot co-exist.

    One wonders if the US will ever have a crackdown on the "brothers".

    Jordan is now getting with the program, hanging two scumbags today. May God have mercy on their souls because the nation of Jordan is going to arrange many meetings of Daesh members with Him very soon. [^][^][^][^]

    Speaking of brothers, Ovomit's brother is a financial officer for the Muslim Brotherhood, and his offices are in Khartoum.
