In its latest attempt, the organization’s official page and affiliated outlets circulated a rumor concerning conditions in rehabilitation and correctional centers. The goal: to secure the release of imprisoned leaders convicted of terrorism and violent acts.

The source described the rumors as part of an ongoing campaign of falsehoods aimed at destabilizing the country and discrediting its stability.

Their disinformation strategy is fast-paced and event-driven, aiming for maximum psychological impact. In some cases, they attempt to trigger what’s known as the “sleeper effect,” where recipients forget the disreputable source and later relay the information as fact, thereby distorting public perception over time.
Brigadier General Dr. Tarek Gomaa, an expert in political Islam, has pointed out that both technological advances and sociopsychological factors contribute to the widespread dissemination of rumors. In today’s digital age, many people rely heavily on platforms like Facebook and X (formerly Twitter) for their information.
He emphasized that rumor-spreading is a deliberate strategy crafted by the Brotherhood’s leadership to undermine Egypt’s societal fabric. The top leadership designs it, and grassroots members are tasked with carrying it out with precision.
