Americans are not there quite yet.
So is obama going to ask Morsy to step down?
I mean he made a really big deal about the “people” getting their way when they wanted Mubarak out.
The secularists are putting on a great effort to save Egypt. However no one should expect Mursi and the Muslim Brotherhood to give up power easily. Also if it comes to overt violence and quasi civil war, the Islamists will be ferocious and merciless. The great unknown is the Army. Does Mursi fully control it? If the Army stages a coup, Egypt will suffer the fate of Algeria but without the oil and gas.
I thought MSDNC said the Egyptians loved their messiah? This has to be a mistake.
Pray for America to Wake UP
What will happen next is Obama will Prevent the MB from being kicked out. Proving he IS a militant Terrorist sympathizer.
Ah, Obama’s Arab Spring.
Wouldn’t it be ‘funny ‘ if Morsi was chased out, or carried out and one of Mubarak’s sons was given control, backed by his brand new Chinese friends!
Updates two from Stratfor, question is when will the American educated military leaders pick a side.

Egypt: Update On Weekend Protests
July 1, 2013 | 0142 GMT
Widespread protests organized by the Tamarod movement in Egypt swelled during the afternoon and evening hours of June 30, but remained peaceful overall. Al-Ahram reported that “millions of opposition protesters” demonstrated in the streets against Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi’s rule. Islamist groups, led by the Muslim Brotherhood’s Freedom and Justice Party, also organized their own counterdemonstrations in support of the regime at Raba El-Adwyia Mosque Square in the Cairo suburb of Nasr City, reportedly numbering in the hundreds of thousands according to Al-Ahram. Thus far, the protests have been nonviolent, though unrest on June 28 claimed four lives, including that of an American citizen. Al-Ahram also reported that four protesters in Assiut City and Beni Suef had died due to incidents related to the protests on June 30. Hundreds have been injured and multiple Muslim Brotherhood offices have been targeted with low-level violence.
Thus far there have been no signs of intervention by the military, and rumors that the Egyptian defense minister was set to address the nation on June 30 were discredited by sources speaking to Al Arabiya. A military source reportedly told Reuters that as many as 14 million people had participated in the protests, though Reuters also noted those numbers were impossible to confirm and likely inflated. Reuters also reported that demonstration organizers remained in multiple Egyptian cities and had called for protests to continue until Morsi agreed to step down. Morsi made clear in an interview with the Guardian published June 30 that he has no intention of doing so
This will not be pretty.
