They won almost every election of note since 2011. They also won the election that was to elect the parliament tasked to write the new constitution. Of course they were going to write it to their advantage. Which idiot wouldn't?<br />Also the economy cannot be blamed on Morsi and the Brotherhood.

The reason for the anger is firstly due to Morsi's attempt to change the constitution to to give the presidency wide ranging powers without sufficient checks and balances. Then of course the economy in Egypt has been tanking too. I wouldn't just put it down to fickleness.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
