In the past two years the Muslim Brotherhood has shown the ability to put millions of people on the street.
They have called for a day of protest today over the removal of Mohamed Morsi from office.
We’ll have live coverage and updates.
This AP article gives interesting background on how Morsi was removed, and how it was clear it would happen two weeks ago, In his final days, Morsi was isolated but defiant:
In the end, Egypt’s first freely elected president found himself isolated, with allies abandoning him and no one in the army or police willing to support him.
Even his Republican Guards simply stepped away as army commandos came to take him to an undisclosed Defense Ministry facility….
The African Union has suspended Egypt, and Turkey — which has an Islamist political party in power and has seen protests — is in the lead in condemning the removal of Morsi.

My message to the Egyptian people,
“This is what happens when you mix radical religion with politics.”
Now if only I could offer some good advice to Americans…
You mean like mixing the radical religion of Global Warmism with politics? Or the radical religion of “white guilt”?
Or the radical religion in which coercive collectivism and massive state power are “progress” and anyone who questions or opposes the statist agenda is the embodiment of evil?
Obamic Brotherhood take note.

how cute.
They are just as good at outrage as our own Muslim in Chief.
Note now Pallywood may be out in force on claims of injuries. The Islamists need a case of victimhood to get their crowd truly frenzied.

Prof.s reference to the 2 week process backs my claim that it was a well planned event .
It was about as spontaneous as some guys strolling along a street in Benghazi…….
