Just to clarify the situation for those who have no idea of whats going on in Egypt right now yet are quick to judge.
This was nothing more than a publicity stunt after the growing popularity of the grass roots democratic movement "Tamarod" which translates as rebel. "Tamarod" seeks to overthrow the regime and conduct early presidential elections while the nation is governed by the supreme constitutional court and a national council made up of various technocrats. This movement has already gained millions of supporters (all documented and signed, using national ID numbers and photographs of the national ID).
Now this publicity stunt comes after the US has given the green light to arm the rebels. So this isn't exactly ruffling any feathers. The primary reason for this stunt is to showcase the MBs strength in numbers ahead of the 30th of June. On the 30th all those opposed to the MB and the current government will be on the streets calling for their downfall. Now this conference was not planned in advance. People outside the MB only knew about it on the day as did I suspect the MBs own supporters. It may have been a response to this.....
The day before the conference after Morsi finshed prayer the people called for him to leave and he waved to them like an idiot.
The expulsion of the Syrian ambassador from Egypt was only symbolic as the countries had in reality cut ties long ago.
Secondly, the Egyptian military will not provide weaponry for the rebels or send to troops to Syria. Several military officials have already stated this. The Egyptian military was however in favour of a UN peacekeeping mission and sent military personnel to Syria when Kofi Annan lead the UN delegation (or whatever it was) in Syria. Now, the Egyptian military itself is highly independent of the president or the state itself (although the president himself is the supreme leader of the armed forces technically) as it isn't reliant on the state for its funding. The Egyptian military is known as a state within a state, it owns multiple private businesses within Egypt and the outside and relies on US aid on major weapons deals although it does have the ability to conduct major deals elsewhere when needed.
The MB have no intention of intervening in Syria as they had no intention of going to war with Israel after they were the people chanting and raving how Egypt should. They are hypocrites or maybe something much worse.
If some Egyptians want to get involved as individuals they can go ahead the country would be a much better place without them.
By the way whoever named this thread, you did a bad job.
