Now that there is a Democratically elected president. How do you guys feel now that the military is thought to be planning a coup of an elected govt?
I guess a Coup is still a conspiracy theory at this point.
but it hurts no one to be forward looking.
Who will the Americans back since we seem to have a need to have a dog in every fight?

On one hand, secularism and freedom of religion have made the world a genuinely better place. On the other hand, everything that could make Egypt a better place for its people in the long term can only be accomplished with the rule of law. Military coups tend to fall outside of what anyone would consider rule of law. Plus, who's to say that at the end of this Egypt won't end up governed by radical Islamists? Moreover, is a return to the sort of military dictatorship Egyptians just overthrew, even a temporary one, a move in the right direction?
For me, this whole thing raises far more questions than it gives answers. I just hope it works out well for the Egyptian people.
The number of sex attacks and rapes against female protesters in Egypt's Tahrir Square has hit 91 in just four days.
Vicious mobs attacked the women as millions of protesters took to the streets to demand President Mohammed Morsi step down.
Yes.. now that you say that Killer_B there does seem to be a correlation between Obama and Morsi .
Morsi got elected on promises of forming an inclusive government and broke every one of them .
President Obama promised to unify America ..
There is not a black America and a white America, a Latino America, an Asian America, There is a United States of America.” – Obama’s 2004 DNC speech.
Obama's 2008 victory-speech "There are no red states or blue states, just the United States"..America is more divided now than it was 40 years ago.
Gee KB, you make a great comparison. I guess there really isn't much difference between christians and muslims. 
1st....... called it
2nd Democracies always fail. 
A real democracy ignores the Minority. A pure democracy is majority rule.
Egypt needs a Republic founded on individual rights. They can not get that with Radical Islamists at the table. A constitution that defers anything to the Koran is a joke.
Egypt needs a solid Constitution before they attempt Democratic Elections.
