gypt's Muslim Brotherhood has lashed out at US Secretaryof State John Kerry for saying the Islamist group 'stole' the 2011 popularuprising that toppled autocrat Hosni Mubarak.
The Brotherhood said Friday the United States should respect democratic principles and not 'support the dictatorship' of the Egyptian military, which in a popularly-backed coup ousted Islamist president Mohammed Mursi, who hails from the Brotherhood.
