Strange thing about democracy... it doesn’t work. It ends up in civil war between clashing factions for power. In Egypt’s case, there is a power with the muscle to maintain a sort of status-quo, sort of. But on this one thing you can be sure, the MB will come out of their hornet’s nest and blow Egypt up, with much blood shed... ah, the nuances of democracy.

Yeh,,another group of people who believed Obama’s word meant something. I’m sure when they heard Obama was backing Morsi with money and weapons and troops they thought it was the best news ever. God only knows where our troops are. The MSM isn’t going to ask. It’s all but certain the money is gone,,thank you John Kerry.

Obama Inc is the greatest destabilizing force on the planet today.

Goebbels could not believe his luck, when after the attempted assassination of Hitler, that although the mutineers occupied the propaganda ministry, they did not cut off the telephones, or interfere with its employees, nor did they seize radio Berlin. Goebbels got on the phone to the radio station and the Wolf’s Lair, determined that Hitler had survived and dictated the “narrative” to the radio station. (Much like Mike McCurry used to.)

Had the mutineers seized the radio station and announced that they were in charge, it is likely that soon other units of the German Army would have risen up, and there might have been crowds in the street and millions of deaths could have been avoided.

Thank God, the coup in Egypt has been relativity bloodless.

I am not advocating the violent overthrow of the government of the United States, or anything like that. But I do wonder if Dear Reader has nightmares about something along these lines:

Caesar had his Brutus, Charles the First his Cromwell, Barack the First may profit by their example! < "Treason"> If this be treason, make the most of it! I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!

I think Al Gore loosed the dogs of war with his 2000 election dispute, the most serious act to undermine the political stability of the United States since the Civil War. Clinton's assault on the rule of law and the traditional dignity and respect accorded of the Office of President was unrelenting and completely unprecedented. Now we get Obama, the first president more or less openly contemptuous and hostile to the American Armed Forces. The Armed Forces deference to the Civilian authority has been one of the anchors of American Freedom. But that anchor is grounded in attitudes of mutual respect and the sands are certainly shifting.

Leading members of the Brotherhood and their allies held a fiery press conference in which they demanded that the military back down. "We are the constitution, we are freedom, we are legitimacy, we are the revolution,"

Entering into the surreal now...MB wants a constitution and freedom...???

He would fit right in with the Obama propaganda machine...

The only folks more despondent than the Muslim Brotherhood were over at CNN.
They were in major meltdown sputtering on and on about the overthrow of a ‘democratically elected leader’. They fear the same thing will happen to the Caliph. Inshallah!

It will be interesting to see if the radical Islamists with a sense if righteous indignation make Mursi a martyr, then turn Egypt into another Algeria with waves of civil violence and terrorism. The euphoria may not last long. Also Egypt is a overpopulated destitute country. The West should prepare for hordes of unwanted refugees. Egypt is an example of the futility of American policy in the Mideast.

This clown apparently DID win some sort of an election. That may indicate that being put into office by scum and low-info voters may not be a guaranty of happiness...

>the grand mufti of Al-Azhar University, the highest seat of Sunni learning in Egypt

This must be the top gun of teaching the muslim savages to rape and abuse women and children. Now they have all day to stick their butts up in the air while talking nonsense toward mecca. Perhaps they can keep in practice buggering each other. Maybe they’ll get bored and try attacking the military with their muzzy bros. That should be entertaining.

As the army takes control of Egypt, demonstrators in favour of the ousted president “feel isolated and ignored”. For the past year or so, the anti-Morsi crowd “felt accepted and loved”.

Barbarians can only understand anarchy via tribal rules. Democracy is something they have to be willing to compromise for it to succeed. However Compromise is not murdering your fellow citizen to prove a legitimate place in leadership.

The US military will feel empowered because of Egypts strong action. Don’t think they will be pushed around. That’s other than the top
generals, oh and the gay dudes. The second in command and lower maybe will get some balls. The courts and congress don’t have the stomach to do the right thing.

Egypts new boss is a Christian I think. The brotherhood is so screwed.
