Egypt Judges Morsi Moves 'Unprecedented Assault' on Judiciary

The Islamic cancer is eating itself up from within already.  It was only a matter of time before the cycle of Mid Eastern power struggles repeated itself.  Now who will the US and Europe support?  The "democratically" elected Morsi, or the "New" rebels opposing Morsi the Brotherhoods Pharaoh?  I don't care as long as Morsi and the rebels  chase each other in circles.

Egypt Judges Morsi Moves 'Unprecedented Assault' on Judiciary

Saturday, 24 Nov 2012 09:45 AM

Egypt's official news agency says that the country's highest body of judges has called the president's recent decrees an "unprecedented assault on the independence of the judiciary and its rulings."

In a statement carried on the Middle East News Agency Saturday, the Supreme Judicial Council says they regret the declarations President Mohammed Morsi issued Thursday.

The council is packed with judges appointed by former President Hosni Mubarak. It regulates judicial promotions and is chaired by the head of the Court of Cassation.

The judges released their statement following an emergency meeting Saturday, a day after tens of thousands of Egyptians demonstrated to denounce Morsi's decision.

The edicts give him near-absolute power and immunity from appeals in courts for any decisions or laws he declares until a new constitution and parliament is in place.
