Hamas: Egypt trained 'Tamarod' members in Gaza

GAZA CITY (Ma'an) -- Egyptian intelligence and security services trained members of a group calling itself "Tamarod Gaza," a senior Hamas official charged Friday.

In a video released Sunday, masked activists read a statement by "Tamarod Gaza" calling for protests across the enclave on Nov. 11 to overthrow Hamas.

On Nov. 11, all "tyrannies and oppression practiced by the Muslim Brotherhood in Gaza" will come to an end, according to the statement.

The Egyptian Tamarod movement is a protest group that organized opposition to the rule of president Mohamed Morsi, the Muslim Brotherhood leader who was deposed on July 3.

Otherwise the connection with the Egyptian military coup and the old (heading the identical military regime) Mubarak regime is far too volatile for me to give it any credence whatever.

Don't think for a second that I support a religious party/regime such as Hamas. Islamism sucks as much as Zionism and there is no future in it because, whether Islamists or Zionists or Fundamentalists know it or not, contemporary politics has already consigned them to the dustbins of history.
