123 McCormack’s Affront to the Independence of the Egyptian Judiciary

Thanks to Nutgraph for noticing this quote from Egypt’s Foreign Ministry, penned in response to a statement from the U.S. State Department on Ayman Nour’s latest date in court.

Egypt’s foreign ministry said on Friday it was “astonished at the manner taken by the official spokesman of the American foreign ministry,” which “implied an affront to the rulings and independence of the Egyptian judiciary.”

Whoever wrote that has now supplanted the head of the Belarusian secret service as the author of my favorite quote of the year.
