    Using just your last name was not insulting- it was disrespectful. Sexist taunts are something else again.

    Nobody has to do any ' research ' in order to see that a military take-over of a democratically-elected government, the arrest of its president , its parliament and the shooting to death of hundreds of pro-democracy civilians is A COUP !. I'm well aware of Morsi's political errors. He didn't do anything useful at all to liberate Gaza, despite the expectations. In a democracy somebody is always dissatisfied. That's no bloody reason at all for the unacceptable behaviour of the Egyptian opposition. They have set Egypt back by decades. So, never mind the ' research '- use some of the common sense you usually display.

    Yes, and I look forward to neoZionism being nothing but a bad memory.

    I wonder if mumekep would be "mature enough to respect others" while they are cutting his throat like the nice democracy priests do to Syrians, & Libyans, Yugoslavians, and many others.

    No, he'd recognise that and fight against it- like you do with coups.

    So the HBendor view of the Palestineans (sheer hatred), which is becoming increasingly popular with Israeli voters, will feed upon itself Gilos?

    I said;

    Whilst you believe that the coup was justified I don't believe that any coup is justifiable. I don't even believe in the military. They should all get productive jobs.

    Crap guitar, incidentally- no vocalist and rough bass. Teenage angst run riot. A troubled opposition in microcosm.

    I am a pacifist too, in an ideal World but we don't live in an ideal, a paradise ( oft lost) maybe but not an ideal .........It is not so simple as me thinking the Military taking charge of the situation is OK, it is a matter of, admittedly with a limited understanding of Egypt, thinking that it has probably curtailed a far worse situation ahead and as I understand the Militarys relationship within Egyptian society it is a little as we once were but even more closely entwined. So I don't think we can judge it quite as harshly as you seam to be doing, If the Egyptian Military had wanted a Junta they would have one ..........It is a wait and see of course I just hope that this time round the Military are brave enough to allow for a more progressive thinking possibility.

    It was no mystery to the military that trouble was brewing. It simply took the wrong course. It should have put its weight behind democracy and its president. Then it would have emerged with respect. We don't know why it backed dissent and sprung its coup- perhaps under extrenal pressures, perhaps because it wanted to regain the power it used to have. Whatever, it backed the wrong horse. Better an honest donkey than the one it sits astride now.

    The Egyptian army backed the Egyptian people, not the Ikhwan. That's called backing the right horse.

    Now, back to the Carnival of Schadenfreude...

    Are you denying that Morsi's overthrow amounted to a coup?

    I'm saying that the military is acting in accordance with the will of the people, trout. Some will call it a "coup", others will call it "street democracy", take your pick. However, I think it's clear that the people see that Morsi and the Ikhwan are a threat to democracy and pluralism in Egypt and that they needed to act decisively before they permanently damaged the country.

    It's definitely a screwed up situation. I don't know that I've ever seen anything quite like it.

    In a nutshell Morsi's removal/overthrow is a coup which is fully supported by the overwhelming majority of the Egyptian populace.

    Well, you wouldn't know that without using the ballot box- and that's what they call toilets now in Egypt.

    same as ouster of Mubarak and if Ikhwan says ouster of Morsi is coup and he should be returned, then he will have to get behind Mubarak in queue

    get out and oust him then

    And it only justifies more coups in the future, you are right but if they dont accept democracy and chose to overthrow their leaders with sticks and stones - what can be done about it? send in the marines and MAKE then accept democratic process ?

    Hardly, as it was the ' Marines ' who trashed Egyptian democracy in the first place. Ashton held two hours of talks with Morsi last night- you know Ashton, the EU foreign rep. who wants all illegal neoZionist squat produce labelled so that it doesn't contaminate trade by way of subterfuge ? Yes, of course you do. Anyway, she gained access to him so they can't murder him out of hand. That will go some way to calming the frantic anxiety of his supporters and it opens the door, albeit a tiny crack, to his legal reinstatement. That would really upset the supporters of ..er......' street democracy '...:mrgreen: I'm sure and it would be their turn to occupy the squares for the next round of square-dancing.

    Oh that was sooo cruel!......, mentioning "the name" in my zionist ears....IM MELTING!!!...........................melting.....

    You really think that he will sit again in the president chair ? you think it will help Egypt ? regardless of what hi did or havent done - I for one dont think he could have fixed the economy in one year for example, do you think that continuing to deal with it is good for the state ? would you rather Egypt break into 2 states for that principle ?
