As I follow this on US media, I get the idea that it has little or nothing to do
with the Israeli attacks on Gaza.
...maybe just a coincidence of timing on which our media has imposed a connection.
Morsi is accused of moving more towards a Islamic governing control,
and (more or less) ignoring the large number of minor political groups.
But as you say, UT, "Egypt still has not delivered a constitution
that was due last September at the latest. Nothing official defined
powers of each branch - Judiciary, Parliament, or President."
But in the chaos of such a revolution, it doesn't take much to re-ignite
a smoldering fire.
Those minority political groups certainly want to maintain their influence in the new government.
Unfortunately, some people (especially young men) turn immediately to more destruction of their physical world.
I'm at a point of saying it's too early to judge what Morsi intends,
and whether it is good or bad (for Egypt, for the middle east, or for the US)
At least, I'm not at all sure the US really understands who/what this man is about.
Maybe he's not quite as good a politician as he needs to be.
