This is why I distrust any "breaking news". 

How in Sam Hill can Morsi produce a 21 minute YouTube video in response to Sisi.....if he's "under house arrest!"  ?

The video is timestamped approx 2 hours before the house arrest breaking news timeframe.  Video has been taken down.

On Fox:  Egyptians were upset with Morsi because he ignored those that did not vote for him.   :whistle:

Is it Morsi?  or a standin?  video time stamp is EET, not DST.  I've been following since 7AM DST--Cairo is six hours ahead of us.

21:52 Mohamed Morsi has announced on the official Facebook page of the presidency that the announcement made by the armed forces is a coup and that he rejects it. He said that as president and head of the armed forces he calls on all civil and military citizens to abide by constitution and law and not respond to the coup.

Wow.  I've been out for the afternoon, and missed all this as it occurred.

THANKS for the thread!  (I'm catching up!)

My prayer is that the persecution of Christians under this radical regime will now abate.

Fox not covering it now.  CNN still is.
Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

AWESOME photo!

I wonder what Dick Cheney will have to say about this.  He wasn't too keen on Obama's support of Morsi.....

22:15 Live footage shows thousands of Morsi's supporters gathered in front of Cairo University to protest the army's announcement.

Yasser Soliman, a supporter of Morsi, said the military's announcement is an implicit call for civil war.

    "The army chose to appease one part of the population against the other. They [the military] are basically setting the streets on fire, calling for civil war. These people [Morsi's supporters] are willing to sacrifice their life in this situation," Soliman said in a live interview with Al Jazeera International, speaking from in front of Cairo University.

    "No other president could have solved the economy's problems in one year. His opponents used violence to pressure him; why didn’t they just wait for next elections?" he continued.

CNN reports the sound of gunfire near pro-Morsi demonstrators, adding that Muslim Brotherhood followers had been training with sticks in preparation for violence. The crowd is chanting “victory or martyrdom.” The Egyptian military, CNN reports, is 400 to 500 yards down from the pro-Morsi demonstrations.

Uh......because you've allowed freaking slaughters of Coptic Christians and beheadings of priests...complete with chanting mobs cheering?

Stupid's no way to go through life, Mr. Soliman

22:40 Bashar Al-Assad, president of Syria, has said that events in Egypt are "the fall of what is called political Islam," reports Reuters. Morsi and the Muslim Brotherhood had been vocal allies of the Syrian president, calling for foreign intervention against him.

Egypt Muslim Brotherhood TV taken off air: MENA

CAIRO | Wed Jul 3, 2013 4:47pm EDT

(Reuters) - The television station of Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood was taken off air and its managers arrested hours after Islamist President Mohamed Mursi was overthrown by the armed forces on Wednesday, state news agency MENA reported.

The Egypt25 channel had been broadcasting live coverage of rallies by tens of thousands of pro-Mursi demonstrators in Cairo and around the country, with speeches by leading Brotherhood politicians denouncing the military intervention to oust the elected president.

Looks like the MB is going for civil war.

God help the people of Egypt...
