In FrontPage today I assess the situation in Egypt: Few analysts expected that the demonstrations in Egypt over the past few days would result in such a swift toppling of Mohammed Morsi and his Muslim Brotherhood regime, and no one can be sure of what is going to happen...

"Egypt army vows to protect Islamists," from Ahram Online, July 4: The Egyptian armed forces have issued...

Notwithstanding their colossal failure in trying to "build the nation" over the last year. Not a good sign, but on the other hand what else can Mansour say? The Brotherhood is too large a force in Egypt to dismiss. "President Adly Mansour says Brotherhood 'part of nation,'" from Egypt Independent,...
