What is being forgotten is that back in November, Morsi set himself up where he now rules by decree. "Unlimited" powers to protect the nation and did this to push thru a Constitution which tried to tilt power to himself and the MB.

Not democratic anymore. The Army is closer to supporting Democracy here than Morsi and the MB.
