When the Egyptian military turned out Morsi, it could have gone basically two ways.
It could have gone back to a Mubarak style military rule.
Or it could have been a Turkish-style check on Islamist nonsense in government.
Looks like it's headed back to Mubarak style repression.
Things could change, but unlike Syria, there is a role for the US to play here. We need to get the military to stop killing people. That's, like, a really good rule. It doesn't have to be Philadelphia in 1787, but it can't be Tiananmen in 1989.
