If the mil supports the protesters, and it looks possible, than the outcome is not assured.

I suspect that the military in Egypt have an ulterior motive for possibly supporting the secularists. Think of the MB's stance on Israel, and then think of three words, which I am absolutely certain that the Egyptian military is thinking as well...

(PS those three words are Aswan, High, and Dam...)

Thanks for that insight. Hadn’t thought of that. Indeed.

The military is no friend to the Islamists. The MB wants war with Israel. The military has little interest in having a war with Israel, a war where lots of Egyptian soldiers will die.

I think a lot of Egyptian soldiers and officers are thinking "If I am to live, then the MB must die".
