Obviously, the Undocumented Moslem Tyrant told
his Islamic partner in the Moslem Brotherhood
to continue holding their boots to the neck of the
Egyptian army.

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.

But apparently the people of Egypt are not buying it. 14 million out of 84 million marched in the streets demanding Morsi resign on Sunday.

And apparently the Egyptian Military (which has been trained by US advisors, either in Egypt or in the US) is not buying it either. As stated, the military issued a 48 hour ultimatum to Morsi to either find common ground with the opposition, or be deposed.

And the military has announced its governance plan should it intervene. Guess what...that plan sounds very 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).

But Obama changed all of that when he helped the opposition 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.

I wish to God the American people had the gumption to stand against Obama as the people of Egyptians stood against Morsi last Sunday. 14 mnillion out of 84 million Egyptians would mean something over 50 million Americans marching for Obama's resignation.

WHO REALLY IS BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA?

Morsi must feel Obama has his back. What is Obama and his functionaries telling the Egyptian military? Is Obama threatening to cut off the military and financial aid if Morsi is deposed, for instance?

I’d be happy to see Morsi suffer the same fate as King Charles I.

I think just the opposite is probably the case. The military is the most trusted and least corrupt institution in Egypt. The US is probably using whatever leverage it has to ensure that the military controls the country on an interim basis and announces that new elections will be held.

The military has already given its ultimatum. Morsi's only out is to call for new elections as soon as possible. His ministers are already resigning. If Morsi refuses to step down, then there will be a civil war.

Officials have also warned the Egyptian military that a military coup [against the Muslim Brotherhood] would trigger U.S. legislation cutting off all U.S. aid, which totals about $1.5 billion per year.

Has an Islamist government ever relinquished power except at gunpoint?
