1:19 pm
a decision by the judges we want to attend and be present during the counting and we also complaining about the fact that the muslim brotherhood members were continuing their propaganda inside the polling stations until the last minute trying to influence voters and tried to convince them to vote yes for the constitution claiming that voting no would mean that you are an infidel or that you are against this them so we're still holding a lot of hope the president morsi will listen to the voice of wisdom and considering that this is a draft constitution that's dividing the country even if we take the results that are being circulated right now it's not enough definitely in a country after the revolution to have a constitution that's approved by a fifty something last. speak your language might be well enough at the end. for music programs and documentaries and spanish matters to you breaking news a little tonnage of angles keeping stories. that troy all teach spanish find out more visit eye to eye.
