Article: Muslim Brotherhood members sentenced to Death

• Aljazeera (Most reliable when it comes to Middle East News) reports that an 'Egyptian court has sentenced 529 members of the outlawed Muslim Brotherhood to death on charges including murder, in a sharp escalation of a crackdown on the movement.' This charge is reported to be the biggest mass death sentence handed out in Egypt's History another thing to note is that this was the 'quickest case' in history with no instant rebuttal of any sort. Interestingly it seemed that the nation, including the judge himself was strongly against the Muslim Brotherhood that it went as far as sentencing 500+ people (Majority of the Brotherhood). A quote sums this point saying, "When the trail begun with the procedural hearing, the judge doesn't listen to any lawyers or witnesses and doesn't even call the defendants, you are before a group of thugs and not the judiciary," Walid, a relative of one the defendants, told Reuters.
