What would a successful civilian takeover in Egypt look like as we define it AMONG THE PEOPLE in the USA?

It would HAVE TO MEAN the Egyptian police and army would have to be ready to shoot down in the street, and arrest those Muslims who riot, murder and burn down the churches of the Copts, and the Synagogues of the Jews, and harm oppress and repress the members themselves. Not because they are Christians and Jews and most of us aren’t Muslims, but because HERE, any SOB’s burning down mosques, and harming Muslims would face precisely that. As we would rightfully expect in England France, Italy, German or any western democracy where the freedom of religion reigns.

It would mean that the juries of the arrested would have ot be ready to convict and the judges ready to sentence.

Any takers on that?

So why then do we CARE about WHO IS RUNNING EGYPT?

The U.S. increased pressure Friday on Egypt’s military rulers to hand over power to civilian leaders, and the generals turned to a Mubarak-era politician to head a new government in a move that failed to satisfy the more than 100,000 protesters who jammed Tahrir Square in the biggest rally yet this week. The demonstrators rejected the appointment of Kamal el-Ganzouri as prime minister, breaking into chants of “Illegitimate! Illegitimate!” and setting up a showdown between the two sides only three days before key parliamentary elections.

The size of the rally and the resilience of protesters in the face of the violence used by security forces in this week’s deadly street battles have won back for the movement much of the strength it projected during the 18-day uprising that ousted President Hosni Mubarak in February.

Significantly adding to their predicament, the Obama administration brought its position on the crisis in Egypt closer to the protesters’ demands, urging the military to fully empower the next interim civilian government.

“We believe that Egypt’s transition to democracy must continue, with elections proceeding expeditiously, and all necessary measures taken to ensure security and prevent intimidation,” the White House said in a statement.

“Most importantly, we believe that the full transfer of power to a civilian government must take place in a just and inclusive manner that responds to the legitimate aspirations of the Egyptian people, as soon as possible,” it said.

The adjustment in the Obama administration’s approach is significant because the Egyptian military, the nation’s most powerful institution, has in the past 30 years forged close relations with successive U.S. administrations, receiving $1.3 billion annually in aid. It followed the public U.S. endorsement of the military’s original timetable for the transfer of power by late 2012 or early 2013.

Why hasten a govt surely run the way the people want …. BY THE QURAN. It will happen but the US need not be the agent of change to appear to be the nice guys.

It won’t matter. The new govt won’t care about what we hold dear. It will care about what the egyptian people want.

Egyptians want more Islam in politics, according to Pew poll
