It is obvious that The Global Oligarchy is behind what has recently happened in Egypt. It is not surprising that judges who were appointed by Mubarak would disband a parliament that is representative of The Egyptian people. Those who criticize it as a coup are right on target. But it is more than a coup, it is the global oligarchy attempting to retain its control over Egypt. I wonder just how many Egyptians like the reality that their country is under the control of the global oligarchy. I wonder how many Egyptian secularists approve of Egypt being under the control of foreigners.
Earlier the judges threatened to disband the parliament because of the issue of how many members in parliament were elected as "independent". But they did not disband it. They waited until the election for president was in just a few days; and then they disbanded it.
What happened before it was disbanded? Well, there was a need to write a new constitution. Therefore, members for a committee who would write the new constitution were chosen. All sections of the Egyptian society were represented, and therefore did have a voice in the committee. "Islamists"- members of The Freedom and Justice Party and The Al-Nour party- of course dominated the committee. These two groups combined got seventy percent of the electoral vote. Seven out of ten Egyptians voted for either the Freedom and Justice Party or The Al-Nour Party. Therefore, it is logical that the "Islamists" should dominate the committee. Yet, some Egyptian secularists objected to this fact and complained to the Mubarak appointed judges- the same judges who ultimately disbanded the parliament. Some secularists complained that the new constitution should have been written before the elections. But such a position is illogical. Who would be on the committee that wrote the new constitution? Who would decide who would be on such a committee? The only logical way for the committee to have been chosen is by those who were elected by the Egyptian people. Now SCAF is threatening to write the new constitution.
Who do I blame for the parliament being disbanded? I do not blame the judges who were appointed by Mubarak. They were only acting according to their nature. I blame those secularists who went to those same Mubarak appointed judges and complained about the "Islamists" dominating the constitutional committee. It is obvious that the great majority of Egyptians support the "Islamists". The Egyptian secularists should understand this and accept it. Do these same secularists want Mubarak's regime back-minus Mubarak? Do they want the global oligarchy to rule Egypt through puppets- like it did under Mubarak?

Update:
Elections were held for Presidency. There were many candidates for Presidency that no one won a majority of votes. There was a second vote for the two top candidates. Mohammad Morsi won in that election. A year later Al-Sisi made another coup in which he established his own regime. President Morsi was asked to resign, but refused. There was a sit in at R4bia for more than a month. It was violently dispersed through fire and gun shots. More than 2,000 peaceful protesters were massacred by Al-Sisi's mafia. Protests continued through out Egypt through a organization that consists of more than 30 movements and parties. At this time the protests are continuing and there is hope that ultimately the coup will be defeated and that President Morsi will be reinstated.
