FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda
Assuming Mr Morsi is confirmed as president, the stage is set for a new period
of uneasy co-operation between the army and the Brotherhood. The army has
reserved to itself a control over all military and security matters, and
will have the legislative and budgetary powers of parliament until new
elections.
But the presidency still has the right to form a government, which in Egypt
has until now been independent of parliament.
Some of secular activist groups which led last year’s revolution to oust
Mubarak have put their weight behind the Brotherhood in its confrontation
with the army.
As the evening progressed, thousands gathered chanting anti-army slogans, but
it became clear that it would fall well short of the “million-man march”
that had been called for.
The army’s assertion of power, and a previous announcement last week that
military police were being given the martial-law right to arrest civilians
including protesters, have sparked concern from its traditional allies in
the West.
After the Pentagon issued a strong-worded warning on Monday night, William
Hague, the foreign secretary, yesterday issued a statement welcoming the
peaceful conduct of the election but added: “The process of drafting a
new, inclusive constitution and the holding of new parliamentary elections
should be taken forward as soon as possible.”
