The raids were a stark escalation in what has appeared to be a campaign by the country’s military rulers to rally support by playing to nationalist and anti-American sentiment here.
“General prosecutor & central security stormed N.D.I. office in Cairo & Assiut,” an employee of the National Democratic Institute wrote in a text message from inside its offices. “We are confined here as they’re searching and clearing out office.”

A man, who identified himself as an official with the public prosecutor’s office but declined to give his name, stood outside the offices of the International Republican Institute in the Dokki neighborhood. He refused to answer questions about the raids but said, “Don’t worry, we’re not going to arrest them.”

The raids come of the heels of an investigation by the Egyptian government into foreign financing for nonprofit organizations operating in the country. The military has suggested that such funding has played a role in fomenting protests with goal of bringing down the Egyptian government.
===========NH:
Egypt gets so much money from the United States already [^] If who is in charge can’t keep a competitive advantage with $1 X 10^9 from the USA compared to what meager funds these, or any, nonprofits likely have, then, who might not be moving whom closer toward the 100% independence. [wthump] Is that right?
============Null Hypothesis//
The raids also coincided with the acquittal of five police officers in the deaths of protesters during the revolution that ousted the country’s autocratic president, Hosni Mubarak. An Egyptian court found that the police officers had either not been at the scene or, in the case of two of the men, had fired in self-defense, state media reported, a ruling likely to further inflame opponents of the country’s military rulers.

Sounds like the old guard seeking to regain it’s footing and draw the upcoming generation closer. The leadership deficit of whom clinging to power as one group so long may have not trained enough upcoming young people to lead. Meanwhile, who for religious reasons, has been building constituencies and learning leadership skills – not out of motivation for worldly power, but to be ready to face the 100% independence when the time line arrives at it’s limit.

A September report by state security prosecutors identified what it said were more than two dozen unregistered groups receiving foreign funding and operating in Egypt. By the country’s law on associations, the violation is punishable with imprisonment.

The Republican and Democratic institutes have worked openly since 2005 and had been assisting with election monitoring during the country’s parliamentary vote.
============NH:
Perhaps it’s a good idea to voluntarily write letters to the local, state, and federal governments whether or not it is required, so over and above any required registration, fees, taxes, etc. NGO’s can have a record in the office, and on the internet of voluntary reporting to the authorities. Then liability is shifted.

In separate statements on Thursday, the two groups said they were troubled by the sudden raids on their offices. “Cracking down on organizations whose sole purpose is to support the democratic process during Egypt’s historic transition sends a disturbing signal,” the N.D.I. president Kenneth Wollack was quoted as saying.

The statement from the International Republican Institute was even more direct. “It is ironic that even during the Mubarak era I.R.I. was not subjected to such aggressive action,” the group said.
