== Biography ==

On November 22, 2012 Morsi had approved a series of decrees exempting himself and members of Parliament from legal challenges against any decisions he may take in his rule.<ref>http://news.yahoo.com/mursi-draws-fire-egypt-decree-011450422.html</ref><ref>https://www.foxnews.com/world/2012/11/22/egypt-president-morsi-grants-himself-far-reaching-powers/</ref>

In his tenure Morsi started to improve the relationships with [[Iran]].<ref>https://www.foxnews.com/world/2013/02/04/egypt-says-ahmadinejad-to-visit-cairo-this-week-1st-visit-by-iranian-leader-in/</ref> He also said that [[Zionism|Zionists]] are "the descendants of apes and pigs."<ref>https://www.jpost.com/MiddleEast/Article.aspx?id=298434</ref>

During the elections Morsi once said:
{{Cquote|'''The Koran is our constitution. The Prophet is our leader. Jihad is our way. The death of God is our noblest desire.'''}}

Morsi is a supporter of [[Terrorism]] and has called it "the correct and only way to free the land from the filth of the Jews”".<ref>http://frontpagemag.com/2013/dgreenfield/morsi-told-us-senators-that-media-is-run-by-the-jews/</ref> During the [[Benghazi Attack]] some offenders screamed “Don’t shoot, don’t shoot, Dr. Morsi sent us.” in Egyptian dialect during their attack.<ref>http://frontpagemag.com/2013/cynthia-farahat/benghazi-terrorists-dr-morsi-sent-us/</ref>

The Egyptian people fought against the Islamisation of Egypt and protested against Morsi in 2013.
