Egypt: Military has plans to suspend Islamist-backed constitution, dissolve legislature

Hamza Hendawi And Maggie Michael, The Associated Press on July 2, 2013.

CAIRO – Egypt’s military has drawn up a plan to suspend the Islamist-backed constitution, dissolve the Islamist-dominated legislature and set up an interim administration headed by the country’s chief justice if President Mohammed Morsi fails to reach a solution with his opponents by the end of a Wednesday deadline, the state news agency reported.

The report Tuesday provided the first details on the road map that the military has said it will implement if Morsi fails to meet its ultimatum, as millions of protesters returned to the streets for the third straight day in their drive to force the Islamist president out of office.

Apparently the Egyptian Army has no intention of allowing Morsi to install a radical islamist state. Good for them - they may save their country.

If they can prevent the establishment of the international Caliphate - they may even save the world.

Note to Egyptian Military:

JUST DO IT! Take this radical, extreme Islamic down before he takes your entire nation down.

Morsi's plan to reconcile is simple...it's called SHARIA LAW. And he is not going to deviate or stand down from it.

The Egyptian Military plan looks vvery familiar. Oh! I know, it is almost exactly the way Hosni Mubarak governed the country. You know, the guy who kept the peace for over 20 years. Who was our ally. Who strongly went after extremist Islamics like the Muslim Brotherhood, who helped the US in the war on terror, and who ensured that peaceful Christian worshippers were protected (who are now being actually crucified in the open and their churches burned).

This plan would actually turn back the clock and be good for Egypt...and apparently the Egyptian people are ready to get rid of Morsi and the path he is on.

Obama bears the responsibility in a big way when he helped Morsi and the Muslim Brotherhood over throw our ally, Mubarak. He did so in a fashion that was very reminiscent of what Carter did in Iran...which led to the Ayotollahs and the fundamental Islamic state that has been in place since.

Obama is up to his eyebrows in this, and has dealt treacherously with our allies, with US interests in the region, and with the US Constitution.

WHO REALLY IS BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA?

When the Ottoman Turks conquered the Arab Empire, they stole the title of Caliph. Many Arabs never regarded the Ottoman Emperor as the true Caliph. In any event, the title has gone unused since Ataturk deposed the Emperor and converted Turkey into a secular republic.

All any group would really have to do is proclaim its leader Caliph and see how many Muslims recognized him as such.
