Egypt still in turmoil

The Muslim Brotherhood’s main office in the Egyptian capital, Cairo, and an office used by the Islamist group in a suburb south of the capital were set on fire late on Thursday, Brotherhood officials and state media said.

Egypt has been in turmoil since President Mohamed Morsi issued a decree on Nov. 22 awarding himself sweeping powers which would make above any judicial process.

On Wednesday night, seven people were killed in clashes around the presidential palace before security forces stopped the fighting.

The state news agency said the office used by the FJP was set ablaze in the suburb of Maadi.

“Another office was broken into near the city centre,” it said.

It is alleged that there was an intensive presence of security forces in front of the Brotherhood’s main headquarters in Mukattam, yet no one intervened to stop the protesters from burning it down

President Morsi has called for a dialogue.

I hope these meetings yield good fruits because another crisis cannot be afforded.
