'Egypt's only democratically elected president, Morsi, was slowly sapped of his life as the world’s democracies largely stood by and said nothing.' Opinion | thewarjournal
There are some days where you simply feel dejected at the state of humanity and the sheer depths of depravity some members of our species will plumb. Today is one of those days, as Egypt’s first and only freely elected president, Mohammed Morsi, collapsed and died in court as he faced bogus charges related to him allegedly betraying his own country.
In fact, up until his death, Morsi saw his family only once in six years. He was said to have been forced to sleep on the concrete floor of his cramped cell and isolated from any human interaction while being denied medical treatment.that HRW was finalising a new report on his health and incarceration conditions when they learned of his tragic death.
Imagine going through all that suffering while those who pretend they did their patriotic duty by bludgeoning the very idea of democracy on the streets of Cairo accuse you of being the traitor. The message in Morsi’s death is clear – Egyptian’s should never, ever in their wildest dreams consider calling for freedom again. If they do, they will either be butchered en masse as occurred in the bloody squares of Cairo’s Rameses and Rabia where thousands were slaughtered at the altar of Sisi’s brutal regime, or they will be slowly bled to death to serve as an example to others who would dare try to upend decades of ruinous military rule.
And let us never forget how this disgusting turn of events would never have been possible without the assistance of the oil-rich Arabian Gulf monarchs, spearheaded by Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. . Today, democracy died with Mohammed Morsi, a man who had the courage and moral fortitude to attempt to serve his country and lift it from decades of repression, only to pay the ultimate price.
