Doesn’t matter if they were armed or not, they promoted a violent muslim brotherhood agenda and appealed to everything but peaceful protest.

If you became caught in the mix, oh well, point the finger right at yourself. You have a good home you should have stayed there. You want to participate, then you get what your hand calls for.

So they should just accept that the military overthrew their democratically elected government, shut up and stay at home?

Is that what you would expect US citizens to do if the same thing happened to them?

Two words, “peaceful protest”. You shouldn’t set off the violence then cry the other guy was more violent than you. Its called stupidity.

Nor should you cry when you were all pumped up acting out along with them and your plan crumbles. Should have thought of all that beforehand… That be the case yes indeed they should have stayed on the porch.

Or you could venerate them as martyrs in which case the whining isn’t needed either.

Could it be that the military realizes that the majority of the people are idiots who elected a group that will ruin the country through religious extremism?

And while I’m tempted to pooh-pooh the idea the American citizens would behave differently, the actions of a certain element in this country that are displayed every time a sports team wins (or loses) a championship suggest otherwise.
 
Could be the real muslims, the good muslims are tired of the oppression. They are not going for another tyrant. And that’s exactly what was coming. And frankly my prayers are with them. Its called heart and character. and hard to find these days.

That is the right of a real democracy. The people changed their mind about their leaders. 👍

Just a daily occurrence. Everyday.
 
Al-Jazeera is balanced in their Middle East coverage? I honestly have no idea…

If the (democratically elected) government of your country was overthrown by the military, who then installed a government, and then had its forces kill 600 unarmed civilians because they took to the streets to protest the illegal overthrowing of your democratically elected government, then would you not feel enraged? Would you respond to this in a purely peaceful manner?

The democratically elected government of Egypt was the Muslim Brotherhood which then decided that Sharia law should be the law of the land. That is not what the people thought they were voting for.

Next comes killing the Christians, which they are doing now.

There is no peace when radical Islam comes to power because they believe the only way is there way and in Egypt it’s the Sunnis and they hate the Shia. So they kill other Muslims as well as Christians and any one else who does not follow their 6th and 7th century thinking.

And by the truth of who indeed is persecuting these Christians, we see the real butchers and tyrants. And no matter how much spin is on the journalism, this is a fact. And they are killing innocent muslims for religious belief, fighting and arguing in streets attempting immediate imposed religious authority. The muslim brotherhood is attempting anything they can, all is fair in war.

One may well argue the Government did this and that to the muslim brotherhood. And that’s a plausible argument. However, most of this is so apparent it just cannot be ignored.

This doesn’t suggest that this general may not become a tyrant. I don’t know the man. He is attempting to establish control and order in the midst of havoc and chaos at the moment. So we need to give him a moment, he did the right thing here, perhaps not in exactly the same way we as Monday morning quarterbacks would insist it all should be handled. Time will tell now. They had 30-million protest who want real freedom. This man was absolutely correct, hopefully he remains steady and this power doesn’t go to his head as we see so often.

"Egypt’s army chief, Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, said in a speech to military and police officers on Sunday that his message to the supporters of deposed Islamist President Mohamed Mursi is that “there is room for everyone in Egypt”.

But in his first public comments since last week’s security crackdown on Mursi’s Muslim Brotherhood, Sisi also warned that anyone who resorts to violence would not be tolerated."

Spraying muslims from the top of mosques with automatic weapons is a no-go for this week. I believe the general is communicating via Facebook. Amazing what technology is doing to re-connect the middle east to the civil world. 🙂

I believe its right, zero tolerance for the MB is the same double standard they would like to impose on others.

A “day of rage” targeting your fellow countrymen because a foreign power that they have no connection to is conducting combat operations in your country sound logical to you? It doesn’t to me.

If some are cooperating with the foreign power and others aren’t? Yeah, absolutely.
