Its Egypt and Sharia law is the law of the land. So why aren't the people satisfied? Of course the answer is that Egypt is a land of educated people and educated people KNOW SHARIALAW SUXS BIG TIME AND IS A HUGE STUMBLING BLOCK TO PROGRESS AND PROSPERITY. Additionally they know that the Muslim Brotherhood is dangerous, corrupt and totally ruthless thus no security can exist for any person not a willing and active member of it. Then toss in the Christian population and intelligence steps up to demand change. Now we shall either see change or eventually a military regaining control of government.-Tyr http://news.yahoo.com/two-dead-egyptians-clash-ahead-rallies-142036312.html Egyptian army steps in to demand political truce

CAIRO (Reuters) - Egypt's army stepped in to a deepening political crisis on Sunday to demand that the Islamist government and its opponents settle their differences and warned that it would act to stop violence spinning out of control.
Issued a week before mass rallies to demand the resignation of President Mohamed Mursi, and following days of friction and increasingly aggressive rhetoric between factions, the statement by the armed forces chief was the most powerful since generals ceded control to civilians after Mursi's election a year ago.
"There is a state of division in society," General Abdel Fattah al-Sisi said on Facebook. "Prolonging it poses a danger to the Egyptian state. There must be consensus among all.
"We will not remain silent as the country slips into a conflict that is hard to control.
There seemed no direct threat to the president from an army that seems to accept its new constitutional role. After Mursi met Sisi, a presidency source called it a "positive statement" reflecting the army's "patriotic role" and "aimed at defusing the rising tension between the different political factions".
But it adds to pressure on Mursi and his Muslim Brotherhood to include opponents in rapidly forging consensual policies to address Egypt's economic and social problems. For liberals, too, who also welcomed the statement, it also pushes them to abandon their campaign to overturn last year's election result.
