IS THE DEATH OF HASSAN AL BANNA*

:: Hassan al-Banna (al-Shahid Hassan al-Banna) ::

~He died on Saturday, February 12, 1949, in Cairo; cause of death: assassination.
~was born on Sunday, October 14, 1906 in Mahmudiyya and he was a famous activist from Egypt of Sunni Muslim religion

Rooted in Islam, Al-Banna's message tackled issues including colonialism, public health, educational policy, natural resources management, Marxism, social inequalities, Arab nationalism, the weakness of the Islamic world on the international scene, and the growing conflict in Palestine. By emphasizing concerns that appealed to a variety of constituencies, Al-Banna was able to recruit from among a cross-section of Egyptian society — though modern-educated civil servants, office employees, and professionals remained dominant among the organization's activists and decisionmakers. Al-Banna was also active in resisting British rule in Egypt.

Emboldened protesters in neighbouring states may also confront other potentates in highly unpredictable showdowns. In a politically combustible region, similar sparks could ignite very different fires...."
