Why would there be a military coup?

I'm not an expert on either Egypt or the MB, but something tells me the Egyptian military wouldn't like being forced to live under Sharia Law any more than other non-MB Egyptians would. So if the military's only choice was an MB government or a coup, they might opt for a coup.

"According to a Pew opinion survey of Egyptians from June 2010, 59 percent said they back Islamists. Only 27% said they back modernizers. Half of Egyptians support Hamas. Thirty percent support Hezbollah and 20% support al Qaida. Moreover, 95% of them would welcome Islamic influence over their politics… Eighty two percent of Egyptians support executing adulterers by stoning, 77% support whipping and cutting the hands off thieves. 84% support executing any Muslim who changes his religion.” Egyptian values, in other words, are far from liberal—even if some of the protesters currently out in the streets might be. This, of course, runs counter to the idea that has taken hold in many quarters: that the end of the Mubarak era will inexorably lead to democracy in the heart of the Arab world. But numbers don’t lie; Egyptian society as a whole is both religious and deeply conservative."

I expect if push came to shove, the Egyptian military would round up the full leadership of the MB, and send them to their virgins awaiting them in paradise.

The military of Egypt now has close ties with the US military. They train with us , attend our military colleges, and know about freedom first hand.

They will not give what freedom they have to the MB, not without a fight.They were neutral durinng the protests because they new it was a fake bunch of Obama/Code Pink computer kids feeling their oats , and a mass of hangers on.

The military stayed their hand. But I agree with you, they will not tolerate a take over by the MB.So the MB must arm itself, and I suspect that Obama is helping the MB to do just that, ordnanace coming from China on the Obama credit card.This is something that they must be very vigilant about in the Mubarak government. I am sure the Israelis will help prevent the armament of the Muslim Brotherhood.

I am glad Obama failed. This traces the Obama campaign in Egypt, supported by US MSM propaganda:

First the telegraph of London reports the Egyptian revolutionary radicals at conferences in the USA:
