Party Time! Muslim Brotherhood Officially Becomes the 'Freedom and Justice Party' in Egypt
CAIRO – Egypt's official news agency says the long banned Muslim Brotherhood has been recognized as the Freedom and Justice Party. The announcement Tuesday would allow the group to run in parliamentary elections set for September. The Brotherhood is considered one of Egypt's best organized blocs following the fall of longtime President Hosni Mubarak in February. It was founded in 1928 but outlawed since 1954.
