Quick Thoughts on Today's Military Coup



So we were 100% accurate in our predictable predictions (see here). What's next? A number of tweetable thoughts: 

(a) Egypt now has no constitution, no president, no parliament, but only SCAF, 

(b) SCAF now holds the legislative and executive power, controls the Constituent Assembly and has the right to arrest civiliants based on the new MOJ decree, 

(c) The Muslim Brotherhood will accept SCAF the Supreme Court decision and Morsi will not do the right thing and withdraw,

(d) The next elected president to be sworn in as president in front of SCAF (or if SCAF is wise, use the Supreme Court instead),


(e) Will the Administrative Court rule next week that the Muslim Brotherhood should be dissolved? I expect a slap on the wrist but nothing too drastic. 


(f) We need to learn to embrace chaos for the foreseeable future.
