observer Posted July 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 As I've said, but it clearly doesn't suit your argument Kije: that Egypt had a Constitutional Court to protect the Constitution; so Morsi wasn't in a position to legally "change the rules". FACT: HE WON A MAJORITY OF VOTES AT AN ELECTION - END OF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asperity Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 Is there any reason why you've started shouting Obs? Need new batteries in the hearing aid? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
observer Posted July 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 What's classed as "shouting" Asp? The bold type or the capitals?! You should know Kije has hearing problems as well as reading problems! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt Kije Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 He did not have the right to change the constitution Obs, why don't you check, then come back and I will except your apology for shouting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazj Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 Majority ?????? In your opinion !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nope.... in the opinion of virtually every opinion poll carried out since 2009.... this link is from the FT by the way! (link : http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/cb2057fc-7917-11e2-b4df-00144feabdc0.html#axzz2YmifjksL ) October 2011 Some 70% of voters want a vote on Britain's EU membership, and by a substantial nine-point margin respondents say they would vote for UK withdrawal. Forty-nine per cent would vote to get Britain out of Europe, against just 40% who prefer to stay in.

observer Posted July 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 In which case, he should have been challenged legally by the Constitutional Court, or was it the case, that the Military - Judicial establishment wanted him to alienate himself, as they'd already planned the coup 12 months ago?!

Lt Kije Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 Baz, am I supported to believe to anti European publications, Back to subject, nice try to go off subject Obs, but now we are back on, have you come to the conclusion than Morsi abused his power?

observer Posted July 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 No Kije, I came to the conclusion, when the military seized power in a military coup, that it had been planned for some time, and that they were merely waiting for the fickle rent a mob, to get on the streets again; to give them the excuse. And now like the US, folk like you are squirming to excuse the embarrassment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lt Kije Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 I am not squirming at all, Again I will point out to you, he abused his power when he changed the constitution, he had not got the power to do so under the constitution he was elected underf, You can squirm all you want to, but that will remain a fact.

asperity Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 Baz, any publication that does not exclusively support Lt Kije's beliefs is obviously anti EU and supported by corrupt financial interests/bankers/pro capital punishment right wing fruitcakes. :lol: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
observer Posted July 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 So if he didn't have the power to alter the constitution legally Kije; how did he do it, and why did the courts allow him to do it? The courts should have intervened NOT the Army; or are coups OK, when it suits?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt Kije Posted July 13, 2013 Report Share Posted July 13, 2013 When he came to power Obs, he filled the courts with his supporters, he also drafted laws that enabled him to ignore the courts, why don't you read about it, instead of posting when you clearly no little about it.

observer Posted July 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2013 The head of the constitutional court; is now President - hardly a Morsi supporter; a legal challenge could have been made to any illegality by Morsi. Your obviously desperate to sanitize an illegal military coup against a democratically elected President - says a lot about your political consistency!

Cleopatra Posted July 13, 2013 Report Share Posted July 13, 2013 Actually just an acting president, a stand in till a new president is elected next year, somewhere between 6 & 12 months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
