Egypt | Army Ousts Mursi govt, violence erupts | News & Discussions

Hopefully he does make that mistake, because that would mean his end. Both sides are equally misguided.

And if Sisi is not the solution for the Egyptian people then the next few years will be disaster since Egyptians won't know what's good for them as they've tasted all forms of government.

The Egyptian economy btw is terrible, it's need decades to get in somewhat shape. I've seen it in my own eyes, I've had many people beg to me for less than a dollar trying to pass tea around and people sitting in the sun selling almonds. Every time I go to Egypt I want to cry over people there. They are facing a difficult situation with lots of poverty.

Social class in Egypt makes it even worse. I hope GCC people and supports here don't exploit this situation. Truth is people aren't concerned for the common Egyptian man.

All these efforts by the US, Israel, and GCC is to preserve the military regime and make sure it completes several important objectives...Gaza border/tunnels, Camp David treaty, Suez Canal, isolating Iran somewhat, ...etc...
 
Sisi ... Proceed To Deliverance

EGYPT is waiting for a caller to announce the new dawn to dispel its woes. It is being called to conduct a constitutional referendum that will force its way to the future, without the sounds of crows over its skies; waiting for the one who vowed to be in its service in order not to disappoint the views of millions. Yesterday, the Egyptians placed their bet on the military and they won. Today, they pinned their hopes again on the military chief who always stands by their side; so he could navigate the country to safe land. This is exactly what happened on June 30 last year when he rescued them by standing up to face the small tyrant who was surrounded by a bigger one; staying at the terrorist guidance office while ridiculing the Egyptians, the Arabs and the world.

Egypt is now looking at Abdulfattah Al-Sisi who responded when we interviewed him about nominating himself for presidency, ‘’Every event has its time’’. Now, Egypt is saying, “It is time for you to speak.’’ In the interview, we did not feel hesitation in his tone. In fact, it was a well-informed tone about the level of challenges that will befall whoever takes up the toughest job in this sensitive period, in which there is no place for risks or division. The national unity has been ‘baptized’ with blood and the lieutenant general does not want to transform it into division that will take away its fortune.

Throughout the last months, the Commander-in-Chief of Egypt’s Armed Forces fully prepared himself for the restoration of order. He remained committed to his military oath to defend his country, putting the interest of the nation first in all his endeavors. This is why the Arabs said in the past, ‘’Hard work pays off’.” Al-Sisi deserves the pay off for being the obedient child of his people and the defending soldier of his people; but this time, it is in the trench of the country’s presidency. He wants to meet the expectations and to realize the wishes of tens of millions who pinned their hopes on the military, and especially on him.

On the eve of the referendum, several options appeared. Egypt is eager to get out of the terrorist pinwheel of the ‘Brotherhood’ and to fix whatever the group had destroyed. It is eager to recover from the enormous pain caused by the Brotherhood. If not for Allah and the revolution of its people through the help of the military, the Brotherhood would have wreaked havoc in Egypt. The group would have extended its destructive acts to the Arab and Muslim worlds. Today, the land of the Canaanites needs a doctor who will not only lessen its pain, but also cure the root causes of diseases; in addition to supervising the recuperation period so it emerges completely healed. This is what the Egyptians are telling their minister of defense, asking him to fulfill his national duty.

General Abdulfattah Al-Sisi, who said he will not run for the presidency of the Republic of Egypt unless demanded by the people and authorized by the military, is being called upon by his people even before the Arab and Muslim countries, especially the Gulf nations, to nominate himself for presidency in order to rescue the biggest nation in the Arab world and to restore stability, which the Arab world will depend on. Perhaps, it is clear who will be the next president of Egypt. Therefore, it is up to the Egyptians, headed by General Abdulfattah Al-Sisi, to start building the nation; not only to fix what was destroyed by the Brotherhood. They have to execute development programs, which were halted due to the dominance of the destructive group in Egypt for the past three years.

The implementation of these development programs may start through the amendment of laws and provision of investment guarantees in Egypt. The country needs investors’ confidence, more than its need for aid. From there, people will start pouring money into Egypt, especially if there are laws which respect international agreements and settle their worries. Today, Egypt is opening its arms for Al-Sisi to return what the ‘Brotherhood’ violently stole within a period of time. The Egyptians have placed their bet on the general to be their president and leader. They will then say repeatedly behind their new caller: “Proceed to deliverance’’.

Third blast in Cairo after bombs at police HQ, subway kill 5 & injure dozens
Three blasts hit Cairo on Friday, targeting police HQ, a metro station and a police station. They apparent string of militant attacks claimed at least five people and injured scores of others.

The latest explosion was reported near a police station in the suburbs of the Egyptian capital. The explosion, in the west Cairo Talebiya district on the main road leading to the Giza pyramids, caused no fatalities.

Minutes earlier a blast killed at least one person and injured 15 near the Behooth subway station. State TV reported that it was caused by a crude explosive device.

But a conflicting report said the blast happened in a drive-by attack on security vehicles, in which the attacker threw a hand grenade.

The early morning blast on the police headquarters in Cairo was the highest profile attack on security forces in months. It was carried out by a suicide bomber in an explosive-laden car, which detonated in front of the building.

The Friday morning explosion at the Cairo Security Directorate left four people dead and injured 73 others, according to the Health Ministry.

Pictures from the scene show damaged fronts of several buildings in Port Said street, including the police headquarters and the famous Museum of Islamic Art..

Witnesses reported injured people being dragged out of the damaged building and transferred into ambulances.

The body of the suspected suicide bomber, who apparently drove the car to the building, was found.

The blast was powerful enough to be heard from kilometers away in all directions. It also sent a large plume of black smoke into the sky.

"Casualties were relatively small given the size of the blast," said Interior Ministry spokesman Hany Abdel Latif.

There were also reports of machine gun fire in the area following the explosion, indicating a likely militant attack. Witnesses said they saw gunmen on motorbikes shooting at the police HQ just after the bomb went off.

Egyptian state TV showed a crowd standing in front of the HQ building in the wake of the blast, chanting “people demand the execution of the Muslim Brotherhood.”

Egyptian security troops and army soldiers have been facing regular militant attacks since July 2013, when a military coup deposed Islamist President Mohamed Morsi.

There have been at least three bomb attacks in the last weeks in the country, including a suicide coming at a police compound in Mansoura, north of Cairo, which killed 15 people.

“We don’t know who is behind these bombings, but it seems likely that they are part of a pattern of bombings carried out by jihadist militants with links to the war, which is raging in the Sinai. And the message to the Egyptian government is: ‘We do not accept your constitution, we do not accept your government, we see them as traitors and we want to bring the whole house crashing down,’” Cairo-based journalist Hugh Miles told RT.

The attack on police HQ on Friday and the second blast come less than a week after Egyptians approved a new constitution, despite a vote boycott by Morsi’s Muslim Brotherhood, which was outlawed after the coup.

The Brotherhood was planning a massive protest after Friday prayers across the country, the largest in a series of similar events.

The bombings raise new concerns over security during the upcoming anniversary celebrations of the 2011 revolution, which ousted Egypt’s long-time ruler Hosni Mubarak. The Interior Ministry pledged to protect the Saturday celebration.

Welcome to hell, justified by Islam and amplified by a ridiculous execution of a coup.
 
Looks like the mess is beginning to be infested by takfiri militants from Sinai attempting to spread the chaos to the cities. This is like the 10th bombing since the coup, next mission will be car bombs + shootings.

No wonder why Al Fahd APC and Abrams are roaming in the streets. Better of using apaches, f16s and all those American made to turn Egypt to Syria 2.0 :P
 
All bought on by the egyptians themselves

democracy was too hard, they wanted a coup, military dictatorship and warfare
