Prominent media sources in Egypt are reporting that Egyptian lawyers have filed criminal terrorism charges against President Obama. Criminal terrorism charges were previously filed in Egyptian courts against the president’s brother Malik Obama.
Malik Obama is rapidly becoming a key person of interest in Egypt for his alleged management of funds for a terrorist group based in Sudan. A group of Egyptian lawyers have also charged President Obama with crimes against humanity for supporting the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt.
The charges arrive as the criminal trial against former Egyptian president Mohamed Morsi is scheduled to start. Morsi is facing charges that he aided the Muslim Brotherhood in violence acts against the Egyptian people.
President Obama is highly likely to be a topic in Morsi’s criminal trial because the Obama administration used the U.S. Embassy in Cairo to provide financial assistance to Muslim Brotherhood operatives, with the knowledge of the Morsi government.
Criminal complaints filed at ICC
The Egyptian newspaper El Watan has reported a complaint has been submitted to the International Criminal Court in The Hague, charging Barack Obama with supporting the group that incited violence in Egypt.
As reported by CBN News, the complaint lists many top-ranking Muslim Brotherhood leaders, starting with the head of the organization, Muhammad Badie, as well as Mohamed al-Beltagy, Essam al-Erian and Safwat Hegazi.
The complaint alleges that Obama coordinated, incited and assisted the Muslim Brotherhood in the commission of crimes against humanity from March 7 through Aug. 18 in Egypt.
The complaint specifies the Muslim Brotherhood persecuted the Christian minority, including the torching, destruction and plundering of 85 churches.
