New Political Showdown in Egypt as Court Invalidates Parliament

Re: New Political Showdown in Egypt as Court Invalidates Parliament
Interesting. I saw that earlier. One has to wonder whether it really is a coup or whether the military really is trying to act in a constitutional fashion. If the former, there will be a LOT of trouble in Egypt for some time to come.
