There is no easy solution for Egypt. The majority of the population is rural, poorly educated, impoverished and Islamic. The Egypt that Americans like are the urban secularists that the Western media usually interviews and covers. However they are a minority. Unless there is a consensus achieved between the two opposing groups (highly unlikely), there will be no peace or economic progress in Egypt. However we may devoutly wish, political Islam will not disappear and it cannot be permanently suppressed despite the powerful Army. Also Mursi has not been seen or heard since July 3. If he died resisting the coup, there will be chaos. In any case the prospects in Egypt are not good and the US should not get further entangled in the affairs of that foreign country. Egypt is destitute and will become economically prostate if widespread violence occurs. Also it is highly doubtful that the oil rich Arabs will subsidize Egypt for very long. IMHO there will soon be hordes of impoverished but fervent refugees pouring into the West or the lands formerly known as Christendom.
