    Default US-backed tyrant wins 97% of election.

    Egypt's Sisi sworn in for second term in office

    Human rights defenders have regularly accused the Egyptian president of violating freedoms and suppressing opponents.



    Sisi took the oath on Saturday in front of members of his government, after winning 97 percent of valid votes in the March presidential election.

    Simple task. You just crush the opposition with assassinations and jail.
    That's democracy US-style.

    The free-minded Egyptians are either dead, in prison or keeping their heads down. You don't think that they voted for Sisi, do you ?
