Democratic elections in Egypt..NOT
#3
Unreal. I've followed all closely. A Coup by the Military is the only word for it. In the last few days the Military Council:
- gave the Military permission to arrest civilians
- dissolved the Parliment and have taken over 'legislative' branch for themselves
- issued hours after a 'President' was elected, a constitution that gives the Military Council ultimate control over themselves and the Country. Its the Mubarak Military Dictatorship, without Mubarak - and the US has its Egyptian Military still in place.....nothing changed, but one old dictator out of the picture. The real powers behind the dictatorship are doing fine. Very sad. The Egyptians seem to be too much in shock to react..but I expect huge reactions soon.....and not happy ones.
