Naturally, the liberal press will still be infatuated with this clown, while screaming about how terrible Israel is for building in the 'occupied territories'. Let's ignore the fact that Israel affords equal opportunities for Women, doesn't have a death penalty and isn't a dictatorship.
Whatever the outcome. it is for the Egyptian citizens to decide, and live by the decision they make. The only thing we on the outside can hope for is for the implementation to be peaceful for the sake of the Egyptians.
the Egyptian policy is very complicated. The voting process is fraud. so you do not know what Egyptian want. Islamism fool people .they said once we get to power ,all economic problem wll be solved. they use deception by saying that Mubarak is stolen money .once the stolen money back Egypt will get better. This is not happen . in addition ,they want impose Islamic law to make their live miserable. Each o Muslim brotherhood thugs will be prosecutor and executor
The Islamist should take a close look at what other democracies are doing-it's not necessary to re-invent the wheel. There are plenty of good examples.
Democracy means "majority rules" -- however, the "rights of the minority" are an important concept that many democracies support.
In the U.S. constitutional amendments are a high threshold to pass--requiring substantially more than a simple majority vote.
The Islamist claim the opposition is playing into the military's hands. No, it is the Islamist that are playing right into the military's hands--by over-reaching.
1. The military 2. The Islamist 3. Secular Egypt
2 of these 3 will join together to make the new Egypt. Which 2 will it be? Right now, it's up to the Islamist to decide. It will either be the Islamist and secular Egypt collaborating to remove the old corrupt regime, or it will be the military and secular Egypt collaborating to prevent the formation of a theocracy.
51% doesn't mean you get to have everything your way. It means you get first shot at describing your vision and persuading others to go along with you. If you don't do a good job at considering the needs of others, you'll find that next time you won't get 51%
We have many views and opinions , and we are able to voice them here in freedom , and if others in the world think they are going to put a lid back on the voice of freedom than they are more than idiots , as the voice of the people will not be silenced by a stroke of a pen .
Think about it , and support it because the Genie of freedom will never be put back in a bottle in Egypt .
Freedom is worth more than some understand , a hint to wisdom , consider the cost that has been paid for freedom on all levels in the present and past , and than consider those that got between the people and freedom .
Once freedom has been tasted it is worth more than ? Abe Lincoln new what freedom was to those both free and otherwise . Don't
Obama Claus and Little Willie's Hilly were both practically moist with excitement when a "democratic" election brought in Morsi. Well, elections have consequences, and this is one of them.
LOL could the propaganda here be more blatant? Obama got a mandate with 51% of the popular vote yet Morsi didn't? Horrible Islamists, wanting to control the destiny of it's own country!
Obama isn't writing a new Constitution. That's the difference: counties that respect the rights of minorities insist that a Constitution be ratified by more than a simple majority.
Comparing fundamentalist Christians with fundamentalist islamists is like comparing a firecracker with an A-bomb. They are not even on the same scale, and comparing them is a stupid equivalency. Look at how the two groups handled films hostile to their point of view. Fundie Christians picketed "The Last Temptation of Christ". Fundie islamists are trying to use the credits of a youtube trailer as a hit list. There is a real, quantifiable difference between the followers of a man who told his disciples that "those who live by the sword shall die by the sword"... and the followers of a man who exorted his followers to use the sword.
Christian fundamentalists haven't hired rapists, hit-men and sex pests to do their bidding at street level. Morsi and his supporters have, however. Comparing the two would be like regarding tigers and tabbies as being equally dangerous. In brief: If you hate the west and the quality of life it affords so da*n much, maybe you should leave it.

You're ruining the world.:)
@ZACKRICE -
Here's why: they believe it is their religious duty to enforce religious law.
Islamists pollute everything, and Egypt, Tunisia and Libya are screwed.
War is coming.
Morsi and his supporters have, however.
