The Coup Is Complete: Egypt Military Tells Mursi He Is No Longer President - Tahrir Celebrates - Live Feed
Well that was quick
FLASH: Egypt state-run Al-Ahram quotes presidency source saying the army told Mursi at 7 p.m. (1700 gmt) that he was no longer president
— Reuters India (@ReutersIndia) July 3, 2013
Some headlines from the speech:
- SEESI: MILITARY TRIED TO BROKER RECONCILIATION FOR MONTHS
- SEESI SAYS PRESIDENCY REJECTED OVERTURES
- SEESI: MURSI SPEECH YESTERDAY DIDN'T MEET PEOPLE'S DEMANDS
- SEESI SAYS EARLY PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS TO BE HELD
- EGYPT'S CONSTITUTION TO BE SUSPENDED UNDER PLAN, SEESI SAYS
- SEESI: MILITARY AGREED ON ROADMAP THAT WON'T EXCLUDE ANYBODY
- SEESI SAYS GOVERNMENT OF TECHNOCRATS TO BE FORMED
Mursi is unhappy:
- MURSI URGES CITIZENS TO REJECT COUP: SKYNEWS CITING STATEMENT
- EGYPT'S MURSI SAYS MILITARY MEASURES REPRESENT 'FULL COUP'
Which however is irrelevant, as Mursi is about to disappear, only to reappear perhaps in the transit zone of the Moscow airport
BREAKING: Morsi's aide says Egyptian leader has been moved to an undisclosed location. -MM
— The Associated Press (@AP) July 3, 2013
From the WSJ:
Egypt’s military announced it is ousting Islamist president President Mohammed Morsi, suspending the constitution and calling for early elections—a move the presidential palace quickly branded a “complete military coup.” Egypt will be ruled temporarily by the president of the Supreme Constitutional Court, the head of Egypt’s military, Gen. Abdel Fattah Al Sisi, said in an address on state television Wednesday evening in Egypt. Mr. Morsi rejected the declaration that he was out of office and called on Egyptians to avoid bloodshed and honor the constitution.
Of course, how the Muslim Brotherhood will accept their overthrow remains unclear but after the initial shock expect "reprisals"...
Persecution of Islamists in Egypt begins. Police arresting personnel at Islamist media channel. Leaders in hiding. MB revolt inevitable.

The new interim head of Egypt will be revealed tomorrow:
- Head of Egypt constitutional court to be sworn in as interim head of state on Thursday
He will most likely be succeeded by Mohamed ElBaradei.
While earlier the State Department spokesperson was careful not to take sides, it seems - given Cantor's recent comments of the US long-standing support of the Egyptian military - that they have come out in support of the new framework; for fear, we suspect, of the growing anti-American sentiment we first exposed here.

Reuters is reporting that four are dead in clashes between Morsi supporters and security forces in Alexandria - as we noted here, it seems the military's standby role has shifted gears.

Perhaps the Egyptian military could teach our military a few things...
It is after all the last step to banana republicdom.

After NeoLiberalism and banking have dispossessed the people of anything worth owning of course...
am i the first with "they showed him no mursi"?
Glad that's over with and we can get back to buying the fucking dip
Goldman in the government then?
Goldman has had a few job ads for Egyptian technocrats out this week.
El-Erian was making comments on the news...batter up!
damn
guess the days of a 1991 style bombing for a few days is over.
so where does morsi try to run, the U.S. or Israel... sadly for him, now that he has no further use to them, his days are probably numbered.
Who gives a fuck. He was instrumental in cramming a Constitution down their throat that only a slim majority of people supported. Constitutions need to protect the individual from the goverment and be broadly consensual, not impose Sharia law because the MuzBros think the prophet wants it that way. Otherwise you are just laying the groundwork for the next revolution. Mursi reaped what he has sown.
FT has a good recap on Morsi:
http://www.ft.com/intl/cms/s/0/b52926f2-e408-11e2-b35b-00144feabdc0.html...
There once is spring time in Cairo
Where it did went, I don't know,
Even Morsi put on big smile,
But is all be in denial
(see what Boris is do for humorous word pun - "denial", "the nile" because is long river in Egypt)
Because military general is real leader of country and democracy is poor to take root in radical islamo-fascist regime where citizenry are more comfortable to take order from kleptocracy above than is to govern self below.
Sorry, Boris is still amateur in create tempo of limerick, is prefer iambic pentameter.
your riambic pentameter is still fucking funny Boris
Btw, have you guys notice that Morsi's campaign political party logo...looks a bit too eerily like Obama's logo?

Movies tell the most incredible lies. Songs too. But then, they are mostly made by Jews.
big picture is important... the people are rejecting the NWO model, forced on them from the outside. the muslim brotherhood has always been a front for the U.S. and Israel. now ordinary people have figured it out. huge development.
Al-Sisi is probably going to need a lot of highly loyal, well-trained bodyguards. He just pissed off all the world's fatcat shitbag oligarchs in one fell swoop.
As AC/DC might say...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_W-fIn2QZgg
If he pissed off the oligarchs, then why is he calling for a group of bankers and intellectuals with ph Dees from accredited American Ivy League universities to run the show?
SEESI SAYS GOVERNMENT OF TECHNOCRATS TO BE FORMED
Since no one really knows what's going on behind the scenes, the backgrounds of the technocrats involved will definitely have to be watched. Hopefully, the generals know enough about The Big Goldman Screw that they have some independent thinkers draft the new constitution. At the moment, they seem to be a lot more inclusive than Morsi's regime.
Just... Wow...
Probably payback for siding with Iran.
Morsi recently sided with the mercenaries sent to Syria by US/Israhell/gulf states... no way did he back Iran. Another reason why this is a big development.
Right on John39. He did not back Iran.
The US .gov stooge was kicked out of Georgia [Ok, he gets to hang around unil Nov w/o power] and now Egypt.
Is this a trend??
Morsi also is buy nice summer home in Memphis, but now maybe is not so good idea. Can get refund on deposit?
He can just move in Boris no deposit required, the key is under the mat
Let's do this again next year!
Independence Days are always better fresh
Oh yeah, I'm sure they have it figured out. Like the new guys in power are gonna be any better.
"He was instrumental in cramming a Constitution down their throat that only a slim majority of people supported. "
Are you referring to Publius?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federalist_Papers
A piece of paper written by the government and subject to review, interperation, and enforcement by only the government is intended to protect the serfs from the government, which controls overwhelming amounts of people/materiel, capital/resources, all of the courts, and the military (gee I wonder why that whole state militia thing fell apart, hmmm....)? Is this a "who's on first?" routine?
"consensual", that's fucking rich, get back to me with the results of that full universal public referendum on the Constitution... the one that never happened.
Now remind what Jefferson said regarding "the next revolution".
Mursi
Snowden
Who will be granted asylum first?
Mursi... definitely.
Mursi: GAME OVER
Game over, my amigo (was that a carrera rapida or what?...)
It will be game over if the Muslim Brotherhood gets to the Aswan dam. They better double the guard on that fucker.
Uh oh, I shorted the fuckin' pop.
“the Egyptian people have spent dearly to achieve ‘SOCIAL JUSTICE’ for every Egyptian man and woman.” – Dr. Mohammed El-Baradei http://mtv.com.lb/en/News/215991

“In a related development, the Tagammu Party’s political committee will meet today to determine the party’s stance on ElBaradei. The meeting will also look at ways to coordinate action with the “NATIONAL ASSOCIATION for CHANGE” established by ElBaradei before he recently traveled outside Egypt”.
http://www.ahl-alquran.com/English/show_article.php?main_id=6409
UH-HO!!! Where have we heard those highlighted references before…
Replace a hard-liner for another PROGRESSIVE!!! And, everybody CHEERS???
Remember the euphoria in 2008 for Soetoro? Wash, Rinse, Repeat…
Fuck the idea of ‘SOCIAL JUSTICE’, it's a leftist fabrication. You either have personal liberty and freedom to express it or you don't.
Complete misunderstanding of emergent properties of complex systems on your part.
One can't enforce social justice but if one can detect elements of any system at any level which attack social justice, they can be removed gradually, attacked like a disease facing an able immune system.
SEESI SAYS GOVERNMENT OF TECHNOCRATS TO BE FORMED
...annnd no one sees a problem with this??
LOL - lots of countries where this means "not out of (career) politicians". You know, university professors, entrepreneurs, people who never seeked office and are nevertheless respected... just describing how the word is understood
Unfortunately it seems that those people are picked and not sought. "Respected" is not a word that I respect any longer.
Of course any military is reliant on the Military Industrial Complex which is of course dominated for insidious purposes by the Western Elites... Unless Russia decides to bring them in to their fold... Interesting to see how it will play out... At any rate its awesome to see the Egyptian military give a big fuck you to the Muslim Brotherhood...
a lot of flags being flown. strikingly nationalistic actually. Morsi could be construed as being ineffective.
Respected by whom?
In Egypt: by the military
Sorry Ghordius but you don't know what the fuck you are talking about.
A technocrat is an appointed, unrepresentative, marionette. They are placed in power until one can be 'elected.'
VanRumpuy, the President of the EU is a technocrat.
Pehaps Snowden will take the job?
Lots of countries where the very pretense of "good government" and civil society are A FUCKING MOCKERY OF ANY DIGNITY AND REASON THE HUMAN RACE EVER HAD.
Lots of countries, namely, oh, ALL of them.
"just describing how the word is understood" by morally degenerate Quislings apologists like yourself who when told "run interference to distract people with irrelevant unbelievably contrived asinine dialectical horseshit pablum which we've carefully designed to confuse, insult, and bewilder those pretentious fools who dare challenge us", simply bows deeper and says, "yes m'lord."
"TECHNOCRACY" is a screaming red flag. There are others. Choose your poison carefully, Egyptian people.
And stop pointing those stupid green lasers.
It would allow for the introduction of a Meritocracy.
when these 5 billion screaming cheering people find out there was a military coup they are gonna be pissed.
CNN: "If indeed there was a coup".
WTF? LOL...
They did not actually say that did they? What the fuck is going on there?
Which will almost certainly be supplanted by the most stable of all states... namely.. a Kleptocracy.
That is IF they even could get rid of the existing Kleptocratic structure which was being severely impoverished by the deteriorating economic conditions under Morsi... and as we all know has a formidable presence in the WAIT FOR IT... military.

Let's give that one to Aristotle:
Polity corrupts to Democracy
Monarchy corrupts to Tiranny
Aristocracy corrupts to Oligarchy
...a stepping stone towards Cronyocracy...
I'll take green lasers over vuvuzelas any day.
I'll take the Brazillion chicks,thanks
Well, all the heads of all bureaucracies, were men that had no formal education and have spent their lives reading and teaching the Koran. So, maybe a banker running the treasury, a farmer running the agriculture dept and maybe a educator running the school system. That is, if they have any of those agencies.
What a novel idea. And don't forget a community organizer running the office of the president.... Wait.... What?
Morsi's an engineer. Most of the Egyptian MB leadership are non-clerical.
An engineer who graduated and taught in California. And the top general was trained in Britain. And yet, here we are.
It is all one massive lie.
Persecution of Islamists in Egypt begins. Police arresting personnel at Islamist media channel. Leaders in hiding.
We can only dream about the Islamists in our media being arrested because all the money in American TV is Saudi/Qatari/Bagel. The House of Saud are supposedly Iraqi bagel merchants installed by chose people cheesepopes.
come on Freddie... islamists control US media... really? do you even believe that? who really controls media in the US is such a cliche that it shouldn't even need to be mentioned.
"Respect mah prejudices!"
100% accurate. They simply cannot say they are a "democracy" because the stunt they just pulled is a banana republic move. In a proper democracy they woul have gone through the appropriate channels to have him impeached, and thus a democratic re-election. Now, they have gone down the slippery slope of shit canning any president that they feel is not doing an adequate job through military pressure. WTF? ...and WHO exactly decides if the president is doing a piss poor job, the masses? The masses have NOT always been right, as history teaches...
And how do you follow the rule of law and impeach a dictator... after he has changed the constitution to ensure one party control of the legislature, plus he removed any power from the Supreme Court to challenge his rule? Democracies only work if everyone follows the rule of law. Once the rule of law is gone, the only way change happens is revolution.
Wasn't it Jefferson who said that the people have the right to withdraw their consent to be governed when a government no longer acts in their best interest? The Egyptians withdrew their consent. The Army did not want a repeat of what happened the last time. Here is a little secret every dictator knows: They only rule as long as the army is happy. Stalin and Mao were the exceptions. They kept their armies in line through purges and constant fear of the secret services. Evidently, the Egyptian presidents hadn't bothered to copy this plan.
Send in the Camelvry!!!
Perhaps the Egyptian military could teach our military a few things...
There's a good idea. Alexander, Demspey, Clapper etc. in control.
Change we can believe in.
Civil War is exactly what The Global Criminal Oligarch Cabal Bankster Intelligence (NWO) Crime Sydicate wants. It pits brother against brother.
Order Out of Chaos.
Revolution should be the order of the day for the Egyptians. It will pit them against the Cabal.
The US Embasies should be secured as they are a hub for The Criminal State Dept. / CIA destabilizers.
Hard to think of any military coups in strategically important countries not engineered (at least in part) by the US. It doesn't look at all like a civil war either, I think that's a US media narrative.
I don't know what to think about it all, but the Egyptian revolution seems at odds with western interests in the middle East.
Al Jazeera has some good live coverage, English (with the lovely Sherine ;):
http://www.aljazeera.com/watch_now/
Do you have any idea who's behind Al Jazeera and what role they had in the "Arab Spring" nonsense, and the Syrian war?
"I don't know what to think about it all, but the Egyptian revolution seems at odds with western interests in the middle East."
Wrong. There was no revolution. Then (30 years ago): Egyptian military has total control. Now: Egyptian military has total control.
Your absolutely correct. The powers at hand want brother against brother. Division creates weakness and the outcome is synthesized- Creating a new system that is in favor of the hierarchy and in turn crushes the republic. Begin the peace rally Cabra. What is holding you back? Talk what is in your heart that you no longer can withhold from the pressure of tyranny. Unite to create the awareness so to battle the evil and how their agenda is leading the children to a desolate future. Remember, we are culpable for our actions so one can not simply point the finger to the evil and say I can not change. Stand up and walk! We must show the courage to be peaceful. Instead, we restrain ourselves. Money? Yeah, I can see us all now. "I'm almost retired so I can't mess up my pension." Or is it comfort? "I like the convenience of not dealing with all 'that' mess so I just do my job and go fishing on the weekends." Do what actions you must for your local community and speak righteously.
What if this is the natural equilibrium of the world? Some people dominating other people sounds alot like Nature.. and don't think I belong to the privileged..
So maybe this fight you're talking about is futile, and leads to your own destruction
Two great pieces of information 'gleened' from this article:
1. Egyptians are not going to go along with US picked dictators.....
2. There are 'non-essential' embassy personnel in the Egyptian embassy. (so why don't we fire all the non-essential people in the .gov and then relook at our debt and deficiet situation).
What's going on here...it's all Egyptian to me....
imo worth a repeat: Egypt & Turkey
it's nearly the same cultural war
white Turks vs black Turks (sic), city vs countryside, urban vs rural, liberal vs conservative, freedom of and from religion vs religion, minorities together vs majority, "western" vs heritage, protesters vs Brotherhood/Mursi/Erdogan
education is not a divide, money also not. and socialism has nothing to do with it. militarism does, including a military ethos of being non-partisan and the garantor of basic constitutional frameworks
Snowden is looking for a job
He can change his name to Mohammed Snowden and be the Information Minister.
Amen brother
It time build a new pyramid.
Mursi says it's not over until his severance package and bonuses are negotiated...
And he's still considered a member of the 'family' by Hill-ZaBoon.
Has Obama offered him a Czar position?
He will become ambassador of Egypt in USA.

Yo sheik is so thirsty
Can we get some of that in America flavor?
I wonder if this Mursi dude has his name in pinstripes on his suits like Mubarak did.

What a nice dream...
It may happen to Barry the way it happened to tricky Dick. It took 26 months from the uncovering of the Watergate affair until Nixon resigned. We learned about Bengahzi how many months ago? WHen they find our where Barry was that night and what he was doing it will be game over. (I believed he sacrificed our people to keep the affair manageable for election purposes - he would not send in the troops to keep it from blowing up into a major event). Then there is Lois Lerner, who now wants immunity to testify...hmmm, wonder what she knows? And there is much more from the department of dirty tricks...
Ummm... Watergate was a scripted takedown (aka a coup), while Bengahzi was a script that was interrupted by people not in the know. So, there really is no comparison between the two.

BATF you are no longer needed, from this day forward there are no NFA firearms.
FBI you are no longer needed, the agency is dissolved.
CIA you are no longer needed, the agency is dissolved.
IRS you are no longer needed, the agency is dissolved.
I could go on but I'm starting to tear up....
FEDERAL RESERVE you are no longer needed and your wealth will be confiscated and your shareholders will be hunted and tried for financial terrorism.

You guys are giving me goosebumps.

"Thank you. The President was a strong and brave man who's principles and beliefs never wavered, and which we must continue to strictly adhere to and carry out, in accordance with his last wishes.
As you know, we have captured the cultural institutions of this country. The institutions that shape the souls of the young. The schools, the colleges, the movies, music, and the arts. They all belong to us now.
At the moment, we are giving people a new identity, and erasing the collective memory. We are rewriting the history books. Nothing was more important to our President than bringing peace to this war torn country. Peace, a lasting peace, can only be achieved through strength.
So, in my first act as the new President, as the leader of the new government, this new regime, we will begin to deploy troops immediately to the southern regions, we will resume the bombing in the jungle. We will begin executing and enslaving prisoners, and that includes those who have preached diversity but who have never practiced it, and those who decried intolerance but were the least tolerant of all. We shall deal with them in a harsh manner.
Remember this, life is a chess game, where all the pieces are the same color. Your self-discipline shall be watched and judged.
Furthermore, we will alert the rebel leaders hat the negotiations have ended. There will be no more compromises. No more concessions. Only complete and utter and unequivocal surrender.
We have learned a valuable lesson. Great nations do not fight small wars. We have seen the difference between winners and losers. Those who are victorious, win first then go to war, while the defeated go to war first and then seek to win.
There will be no more stupidity. No more mistakes.
It's a new day.
God help you all."

Foreign Office
November 2nd, 1917
Dear Lord Rothschild,
I have much pleasure in conveying to you, on behalf of His Majesty's Government, the following declaration of sympathy with Jewish Zionist aspirations which has been submitted to, and approved by, the Cabinet.
"His Majesty's Government view with favour the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, and will use their best endeavours to facilitate the achievement of this object, it being clearly understood that nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine, or the rights and political status enjoyed by Jews in any other country."
I should be grateful if you would bring this declaration to the knowledge of the Zionist Federation.
Yours sincerely,
Arthur James Balfour
