Islamists Installed in Egypt State Institutions
(AP) Maggie Michael - Egypt's Islamist leadership took a new move Tuesday to put its stamp on the country's government, appointing members of the fundamentalist Muslim Brotherhood as provincial governors and installing ultraconservatives and other Islamists in the state's top human rights body and a powerful media council. On Tuesday, Morsi's office announced 10 new governors - four are leading members of the Brotherhood, while three are retired generals. The National Council for Human Rights, once headed by former UN Secretary-General Boutros Boutros-Ghali, includes at least seven Islamists.
