The Muslim Brotherhood has been known to be a political party in Egypt and while they have violated human rights themselves, this is NOT the venue for victimization.
Behind this sentence is a 'disposal' of human beings that perhaps should be sentenced at The Hague, but, this is not civilized nor appropriate for a government to carry out a mass execution.
This action carries huge issues of brevity implicating the current judicial system in oppressing the citizens of Egypt in fear of political descent. In many ways these people are political prisoners that are now going to be executed. The trial is a travesty to democracy and free will.
Not to diminish the deaths of police officers, but, this sentence is not justice to those deaths. These executions pose a greater danger to Egypt and makes a mockery of the service these police officers gave to the citizens of Egypt.
The murderers need to be weeded out and held individually responsible as reassurance murder will not be tolerated. This method of so called justice only erases the identity of the officers and their murderers and creates oppression where there should be none.
Justice is about protecting the people, the individual while honoring the victim(s), their service they provided by putting their lives on the line and the victim's families that have suffered incredible loss. This mass sentence is not justice, it is a travesty that appears to be cultural genocide while using the deaths of police officers to carry it out.
The multitudes of victims has to be realized in ordering the execution of 529 Egyptians. These people are Egyptians, not a foreign nation called The Muslim Brotherhood.
