Muslim Brotherhood Statement on ‘Protect the Revolution’ Demonstration – Friday 13 April 2012

The Muslim Brotherhood has announced that it will join with all political parties, coalitions and stakeholders in the "Protect the Revolution" million-man march on Friday April 13, 2012.

This comes in response to insidious attempts by remnants of the former regime to abort the Revolution, restore the old regime and drag the country back to pre-January 25, 2011 tyranny and repression.

Furthermore, this is part of a series of events in which all the Egyptian people will express their determination to defend the revolution and meet its demands, and pay tribute to the blood of the martyrs who sacrificed their most precious possessions to achieve the goals of the blessed revolution.

Dr. Mahmoud Hussein

Muslim Brotherhood Secretary-General
