Arab Spring 2.0: Why did Morsi lose the presidency and why did the Muslim Brotherhood lose a revolution?
Many Arabs,
thirsty for real change, look at the events of the Arab Spring positively.
Liberal, secular, conservative, and ultraconservative groups and individuals in
the countries transformed by the Arab Spring who supported the overthrow of the
old guard agree that these revolutions were necessary. They disagree on the
post-revolution arrangement. The Arab Spring 2.0 that took place in Egypt on
June 30th is a good example of the disagreement between former allies about the
future of the new Arab World. Analysts and observers of Middle East affairs are
trying to make sense out of something that does not operate according to common
sense. All that can be done is a sound analysis of the facts. I have received
several inquiries for comments about the events in Egypt. A summary of these
comments might provide some legal and historical context.
