Opinion:Has Sisi betrayed Egyptians?

CAIRO- 3 July 2017: On the occasion of July 3, I remember the words I wrote previously to discuss the issue of:
Did Sisi betray Egyptians when he rose against the president who appointed him?
On June 21, 2013, I wrote an article after a specific incident, in which one of the most important leaders of the armed forces then tried to advise one of the closest people to President Morsi, so that the country is not dragged into chaos. and I remember that I said to the person from the Brotherhood presidency, who talked to me then: “what the military official is saying is already sincere advice to save the country, but the presidency rejected the advice as it rejected others” So, I then wrote the article titled : «Dr. Morsi is eroding”, and I said: "Among the rebels and opponents there are those who want to overthrow President Morsi, and he is helping them; so I ask Dr. Morsi to seriously respond to my request, which I mentioned in my previous article: " Run for elections of the House of Representatives". A reasonable MP is not necessarily a successful president. This is for Egypt, not for Morsi». End of Quote from the article.
Certainly I then received a lot of bashing from brotherhood leaders and their electronic battalions that got me at the time. Maybe they had an excuse because they didn’t know the background of the article, and it was hard to explain backgrounds at the time. This was a necessary introduction to illustrate that I was aware that the MoD was already advising the presidency, and I know other details about these tips and how they were received by the Presidency.
Therefore, I claim that General Sisi did not betray President Morsi but he despaired of him, and the difference between two is considerable. One insider told me commenting on what Sisi himself said that he spent two hours with President Morsi on the day of his famous speech on June 26 -which the Presidency was proud of as a speech “to expose plotters” - to advise him of what he should to say to the judges, to the Christian Brothers, to the opposition, to the army, to the police, to the media and abroad so that he could reconcile with all these parties, and the home ship would pass out of the ordeal it was in.

According to my source, General Sisi met Dr. Katatni in the ball room a few minutes before the speech and said: "90 percent of what I have agreed with the president will now be heard.” However, General Sisi, and perhaps Dr. Katatni also were surprised that President Morsi did the opposite of everything they agreed to, and he was already adept at rallying people against him on June 30. Nevertheless, when you are a patriot Egyptian who loves Egypt more than you love other parties and groups or even football teams: what would you do, especially when you are the commander in chief of the armed forces, and you were ruled by a president whom semi-confidential international reports about your country were issued by an enemy state in his rule. Those reports claimed that «Egypt is no longer a governable state under Morsi». In the report, they advised to prepare for the phase of the collapse of the Egyptian state and losing control over Sinai, and mock the president of your country: (a la Morsi, strong state and stable democracy do not mix in Egypt now)?

I imagine any patriot military commander who loves his country whether the American George Washington, or French Charles de Gaulle or the Egyptian Sisi, would not have been satisfied that the state would collapse under the allegations of "democratic procedures and elections against content and practice». Under a Presidency that succeeded in the elections and failed to lead, it succeeded in gaining access to power and failed to build the state, attributing itself to the revolution and washed its hands of it. However, I say: the aforementioned leaderships, American and French, have not only created powerful states, but stable democracies that guarantee liberties as well. As a state without a stable democracy becomes unjust or a non-state. The author of these lines wants both, and will not accept an alternative, and this is now the responsibility of General Sisi and part of his promise to Egyptians: building a strong, democratic, just and modern developmental state.

My message to Egyptians, do not think that we have accepted the Army trap because we are satisfied with tyranny, but because the alternative to the Army trap then would be that of thugs or terrorists. The ‘force of law’ must succeed in defeating the ‘law of force’ that has wasted the state and democracy together.
