Egypt Cracks Down On Muslim Brotherhood

Egypt arrests third-in-command:

CAIRO, Egypt - Police arrested the outlawed Muslim Brotherhood's chief strategist and at least 140 others Thursday in a crackdown after a protest by uniformed students raised fears the Islamist political group is creating a military wing.

The Interior Ministry announced the arrests, accusing the Brotherhood of recruiting students at Al-Azhar University in Cairo, Egypt's foremost Islamic institute, and providing them with combat training, knives and chains.

Hm. Where have we heard the name Al-Azhar University recently?

It seems that locale is getting a lot of attention lately.
