In June 2012 Egypt democratically elected its first head of state, Mohammed Morsi of the Muslim Brotherhood. Morsi's term as President lasted less than one year before he was ousted by the Egyptian military in the spring of 2013. Morsi's supporters have since rebelled against the military sending the country into a state of of near civil war.

Muslims have nothing to do with terrorism. ISIS and terrorist organisations are the issue. Not Muslims
@8XLWHR93yrs3Y
Democracy should be supported, neither religion or military should have power
@8DML7QD5yrs5Y
No country should be governed based on religion so the Muslim brotherhood should be stopped
@B4PLW8F 1wk1W
No, we should not get involved in a foreign civil war, unless it is to supply humanitarian aid to civilians, or to prevent serious human rights violations
@B4PHSGC1wk1W
No - Muslim Brotherhood advocates political violence, but such a crackdown is also political violence. Self-determination is a fundamental human right and Australia should support that - but the UN should do more to disarm political groups using violence and intimidation such as MB & Hamas.
@8Y63RT53yrs3Y
Yes, the Muslim Brotherhood is a terrorist organisation!
