Egypt's new president vows to free blind sheik from Jersey City jailed for plotting 1993 WTC bombing
Egypt's first Islamist and civilian president-elect, Mohammed Morsi, vowed before a crowd of thousands in Cairo's Tahrir Square today to work for the release of Omar Abdel-Rahman, the blind Jersey City sheik jailed for plotting the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center.
Morsi's statement came as he vowed to fight for his authority and symbolically read an oath of office on the eve of his official inauguration.
His strongly worded speech was a show of defiance as he gears up to power struggle with the country's ruling generals who passed a constitutional declaration taking over major presidential powers in the days before election results were announced after a bitter campaign.
