Those who met on Tahrir Square seem to have forgotten to educate the people and the Islamists about their values and goals.

The secular democrats in Egypt have a lot of work to do. This is very sad.

I wonder where the Islamists plan to get their military equipment and support. Russia? Iran? China?

I figure that Morsi already has that planned out.
