I am very sad and bitter about this. The Egyptians did vote for this man. For the first time ever. They organized a campaign, they queued to the polls. The Muslim Brotherhood won it because they had the history, they had the skills and contacts, they were organized. Even if they had been banned from politics for decades they still always acted as a positive force in the society. For instance, when the corrupted administration did not give people what they need the Brotherhood often did.
If you say you support democracy you should also accept what it brings.
There is no greater power in Egypt than the army. They get the U.S. dollars, they control 40 per cent of businesses. They support Tamarod for their own reasons. During Mursi Egypt has received support from IMF which demands the country to possess of its economical structures and this was written to the new constitution. No one knows the budget of the army and the generals want it that way.
There is no greater power in Egypt than the army and there will never be. The demonstrators made this possible. Hosni must be so pleased to see this day.
Go to Ramses Square and look around: things could not be very much worse in the overcrowded city. It is an emergency and a human disaster. Instead of organizing parties in the Tahrir with flags and fireworks people should go and do their work better. Each one of them.
May Allah protect Egypt.
I agree with what you are saying 100%. Anybody who thinks democrasy is not only elections should also resist against coups. I think it is one of those times people and countries are going to reflect what they think of democracy.
So far EU said : The European Union has called for a rapid return to democracy in Egypt.
Saudi Arabia, Syria, United Arab Emirates welcome the coup.
USA is short of calling this as a coup..
