Why was Morsi really ousted?

Al Monitor


Observers are shocked. They do not understand as they watch millions of Egyptians marching in protest, in every major city in Egypt, against President Mohammed Morsi. In Cairo alone, some estimated the number of protesters to be 5 to 7 million. That is roughly a quarter to a third of the capital’s population. The crowds on June 30 may have been part of the largest political protest in history.

Morsi was Aboslutely Right !! Solid Proof that Gas and Alcohol Don't Mix!

When you take a Taxi & after a few hundred meters discover that the driver is drunk, you get the hell out despite the initial agreement.


Once they discovered the cab driver was drunk, they told #Morsi to stop & call for early elections. He refused. The people called the cops.


After all, gas and alcohol don't mix.

Morsi's Assistant Signals the End ?

For Immediate Release, July 3, 2013

As I write these lines I am fully aware that these may be the last lines I get to post on this page.

For the sake of Egypt and for historical accuracy, let's call what is happening by its real name: Military coup.

It has been two and a half years after a popular revolution against a dictatorship that had strangled and drained Egypt for 30 years. 

That revolution restored a sense of hope and fired up Egyptians' dreams of a future in which they could claim for themselves the same dignity that is every human being's birthright.

On Januray 25 I stood in Tahrir square. My children stood in protest in Cairo and Alexandria. We stood ready to sacrifice for this revolution. When we did that, we did not support a revolution of elites. And we did not support a conditional democracy. We stood, and we still stand, for a very simple idea: given freedom, we Egyptians can build institutions that allow us to promote and choose among all the different visions for the country. We quickly discovered that almost none of the other actors were willing to extend that idea to include us.

You have heard much during the past 30 months about ikhwan excluding all others. I will not try to convince you otherwise today. Perhaps there will come a day when honest academics have the courage to examine the record.

Today only one thing matters. In this day and age no military coup can succeed in the face of sizeable popular force without considerable bloodshed. Who among you is ready to shoulder that blame?

I am fully aware of the Egyptian media that has already attempted to frame ikhwan for every act of violence that has taken place in Egypt since January 2011. I am sure that you are tempted to believe this. But it will not be easy.

There are still people in Egypt who believe in their right to make a democratic choice. Hundreds of thousands of them have gathered in support of democracy and the Presidency. And they will not leave in the face of this attack. To move them, there will have to be violence. It will either come from the army, the police, or the hired mercenaries. Either way there will be considerable bloodshed. And the message will resonate throughout the Muslim World loud and clear: democracy is not for Muslims.

I do not need to explain in detail the worldwide catastrophic ramifications of this message. In the last week there has been every attempt to issue a counter narrative that this is just scaremongering and that the crushing of Egypt's nascent democracy can be managed. We no longer have the time to engage in frivolous academic back and forth. The audience that reads this page understands the price that the world continues to pay for the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Egypt is neither Afghanistan nor Iraq. Its symbolic weight and resulting impact is far more significant. Last night, demonstrators at Cairo University supporting the President were fired upon using automatic weapons. Twenty people died and hunderds were injured.

There are people in Egypt and around the world that continue to try to justify the calls for early presidential elections because of the large numbers of demonstrators and the validity of their grievances.

Let me be very clear. The protesters represent a wide spectrum of Egyptians and many of them have genuine, valid grievances. President Morsy's approval rating is down.

Now let me be equally clear. Since January and again in the last couple of weeks the President has repeatedly called for national dialog. Equally repeatedly, the opposition refused to participate. Increasingly, the so-called liberals of Egypt escalated a rhetoric inviting the military to become the custodians of government in Egypt. The opposition has steadfastly declined every option that entails a return to the ballot box.

Yesterday, the President received an initiative from an alliance of parties supporting constitutional legitimacy. He discussed it with the Prime Minister and the Minister of Defense and all three of them agreed that it presented an excellent path for Egypt out of its current impasse. The initiative called for a full change of cabinet, a prime minister acceptable to all, changing the public prosecutor, agreement on constitutional amendments, and a reconciliation commission.

And let us also be clear. The President did not have to offer all these concessions. In a democracy, there are simple consequences for the situation we see in Egypt: the President loses the next election or his party gets penalized in the upcoming parliamentary elections. Anything else is mob rule.

In the last year we have been castigated by foreign governments, foreign media, and rights groups whenever our reforms in the areas of rights and freedoms did not keep pace with the ambitions of some or adhere exactly to the forms used in other cultures. The silence of all of those voices with an impending military coup is hypocritical and that hypocrisy will not be lost on a large swathe of Egyptians, Arabs and Muslims.

Many have seen fit in these last months to lecture us on how democracy is more than just the ballot box. That may indeed be true. But what is definitely true is that there is no democracy without the ballot box.

نحتاج إعلان دستوري جديد

مطلوب إعلان دستوري لنقل السلطة لمجلس رئاسي أو  رئيس انتقالي لفترة واحدة - مهمة الإعلان الدستوري:

• يحدد طبيعة المرحلة ومن أين تستمد شرعيتها - من ثورة الشعب
• يؤكد على هوية مصر والحقوق الأساسية والحريات ومدنية الدولة وأسس الحكم
• يضع إطار زمني للمرحلة الانتقالية ومحطاتها
• يضع قواعد العمل أثناء المرحلة الانتقالية - بمعنى - من يضع التشريعات - من يكلف أو يقيل الوزراء والمحافظين - وهكذا
• يضع قواعد التحول الديمقراطي
• كيف ومتى ننتخب رئيس انتقالي أو نقوم بتعيين مجلس رئاسي انتقالي
• كيف ومتى نختار أو ننتخب هيئة تأسيسية لوضع دستور جديد للبلاد - وكيف يصوت الشعب على الدستور الجديد
• كيف ومتى ننتخب المجالس المحلية 
• كيف ومتى ننتخب البرلمان القادم (أم يكون ذلك على اساس الدستور الجديد)
• كيف ومتى ننتخب الرئيس - بعد المرحلة الانتقالية
• ما العمل في القوانين التي صدرت مؤقتا في غياب مجلس الشعب؟
• ما هي منطلقات الدستور القادم
• يضع آليات وطرق التحول الديمقراطي

الصحف الأجنبية تتحدث عن مرسى

نيويورك تايمز

الحشود الغاضبة والتى لم تكن متوقعة كانت مشحونة بغضب عارم ، واقتحمت مقار الإخوان باعتبارها رمزا لسلطة مرفوضة . والحقيقة أن المظاهرات الحالية فاقت مظاهرات يناير 2011 التى أطاحت بمبارك وفاقت كل توقعات الإخوان بل وعدد من استمد منهم مرسى شرعيته فى الانتخابات .. أنها لحظة مواجهة الإخوان للحقيقة فقد آن لهم أن يعرفوا حقيقتهم . إنها رسالة للأنظمة الاسلامية التى قامت فى دول أخرى للربيع العربى .

لومــونـد

أن مصر شهدت أمواجاً بشرية أكدت أن مصر الحقيقية مع المتظاهرين المعارضين لمرسى . لقد خرج الملايين فى مختلف الأماكن رافعين كروتاً حمراء مطالبين برحيل الرئيس وباختصار أنها حركة شعبية غير مسبوقة .

لوس انجلوس تايمز

أنه أطول يوم فى تاريخ مصر . فالشعب يلوم مرسى لأنه أخضع السلطة للإخوان على حساب الاقتصاد المتعثر والمشاكل الاجتماعية المتراكمة . أن عاماً واحداً من حكم الإخوان كان كفيلا باغضاب أكثر من 50% من الناخبين فسياساته تسببت فى تبديد آمالهم فى رؤية مصر ديمقراطية حديثة تجاوزت سنوات الفساد فى عهد مبارك.

فورين بوليس

أن مصر لم تشهد أبدا فى تاريخها الحديث يوما كهذا اليوم . أن المظاهرات التى شملت أنحاء البلاد أصبحت أكبر تحد للقوى الاسلامية كلها وخاصة للنخبة التى صعدت إلى السلطة . ومع تصاعد العداء للإخوان تصاعد العداء لأمريكا بسبب مساندة أوباما لمرسى.

صحيفة بابيس(الاسبانية)

أن مظاهر 30 يونيو فى مصر لم تكن موجهة فقط ضد الإخوان بل كانت أيضا ضد أوباما . حيث ارتفعت لافتات مكتوب عليها " أوباما يدعم الارهاب " أما سفيرة أمريكا فقد تجاسرت وأعلنت أن هناك شكوكاً كبيرة حول فكرة الاحتجاجات فمصر تحتاج إلى استقرار .

وول ستريت

لقد أتت هذه المظاهرات العارمة فى ظل نقص الوقود وارتفاع معدلات البطالة والجريمة والعنف الطائفى وافتقاد الديمقراطية والإصرار على الهيمنة الإخوانية . أما التصريحات العالية الصوت للإخوان فهى محاولة لإخفاء ضعفهم وخوفهم .

Egyptians Realize Gravity of What Is Coming and Yet March Ahead

Why would Egyptians continue to march on that path if they realize the risks of violence, disruption of the economy and major services, and even a possible collapse of the state, an outbreak of civil war, and the lawlessness which may follow? Is it one of these rare situations, when you realize that status quo is worse than a possible civil war?
