Muslim Brotherhood Rejects Call for National Reconciliation
(Al-Masry Al-Youm-Egypt) The Muslim Brotherhood rejected on Tuesday a call by presidential media advisor Ahmed al-Meslemany to take part in national reconciliation meetings with all political forces. Spokesperson Gehad al-Haddad said, "We insist that Mohamed Morsi be released and reinstated to his post [as president]." Spokesperson Ahmed Aref said, "We will continue our rallies in the squares to reject the coup....We ask that whoever opposes us not trivialize us as a weak enemy. We have accumulated much experience since our founding more than 80 years ago. We have been through hardship that others cannot even imagine. We have strong institutional work based on preaching and educational values, and thus we can be a bitter enemy."
