Another "What is the Real Identity" Quiz

I occasionally will put up a real news item but remove the real identity and ask you to guess who - because somehow, they usually read as if Israel is involved.

Here's a new one:

________ police detained 24 members of the _______ on Saturday, sources from the outlawed group and the Interior Ministry said. The arrests come a day after protests organised by the _________, _______'s largest opposition group, in support of Palestinians protesting in Jerusalem against perceived attempts by Jewish religious activists to enter a holy site in the city.

Police raided the homes of five senior ______ members in and around the _______ city of ___________ and detained them at dawn, a _________ source in the _______ province said. Two other ____________ sources said 16 members of the group were detained in _________ province....An Interior Ministry source confirmed the detentions and said those held had been organising demonstrations without the ministry's permission.

Ah, you are thinking 'but this sounds like Israel and the Islamic Movement with its head, Sheikh Raad Salah', right?

Wrong.

Egypt.

Here:-

Egyptian police detained 24 members of the opposition Muslim Brotherhood on Saturday, sources from the outlawed group and the Interior Ministry said. The arrests come a day after protests organised by the Brotherhood, Egypt's largest opposition group, in support of Palestinians protesting in Jerusalem against perceived attempts by Jewish religious activists to enter a holy site in the city. The group won roughly a fifth of seats in the lower house of parliament in 2005, but Egyptian authorities have since obstructed its efforts to further its electoral gains in votes for municipal councils or parliament's upper house. Police raided the homes of five senior Brotherhood members in and around the Nile delta city of Damanhour and detained them at dawn, a Brotherhood source in the Beheira province said. Two other Brotherhood sources said 16 members of the group were detained in Sharqiya province, also in the delta, and three in the Suez province further east. An Interior Ministry source confirmed the detentions and said those held had been organising demonstrations without the ministry's permission.
