How Stupid is the United States

The US refuses to call the overthrow of the democratically elected Morsi Government a Military Coup.  Seriously what the hell do you call it?   Meanwhile the Egyptian Military basically executed 51 civilians last night including women and children.   Granted the Muslim Brotherhood may not be liked by many however they were elected to office by 51% of the voters in Egypt.  If the people of Egypt think they made a mistake then either they should have impeached Morsi or have waited for the next election.  Having the Military come in and takeover sets a bad precedent and will eventually lead to further turmoil in the Middle East.

Egypt was A Military Coup

The recent Military Coup in Egypt harkens back to the days of Nasser when he led a military coup as just a Colonel.   I suppose it's not a surprise that only 1 year after being elected President, Morsi would be removed from office.   It's obvious this Military Coup will set the stage for additional Coup's in other Middle Eastern countries in the coming decade leading to more instability in the region.
