I can hear Willie Nelson singing “On the road again…”.
Anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan joined a protest Wednesday seeking the support of Egypt’s first lady in ending a military trial of members of the country’s largest Islamic organization.
Under the watchful eyes of dozens of black-clad and helmeted anti-riot police, some 50 heavily veiled wives and children of 40 senior members of the Muslim Brotherhood detained for the past year, gathered in front of the headquarters of first lady Suzanne Mubarak’s National Council Women carrying banners calling for their release.
“I am here to protest the trial of civilians in front of a military tribunal as this is a violation to international law,” said Sheehan, who gained fame in the U.S. for her sit-in outside President Bush’s Texas ranch following the death of her son in Iraq.
“As a mother of a son who was killed in the war, I presented a letter to Ms. Suzanne Mubarak to realize how those women and children are suffering.”
My hope is that they throw her butt in jail in Egypt. Perhaps she will be more respectful of her freedoms here in the United States and appreciate all that her country does for her and allows her to do. Yet she insists on defending Islamic Jihadist terrorists like the Muslim Brotherhood. She needs mental help.
And by the way… revoke her passport so she can’t get back into the country.
