The Egyptian “deadline” is tomorrow, from CNN: Showdown? Egypt’s Morsy defies military ‘ultimatum’
Egyptian President Mohamed Morsy refused Tuesday to bow to a military ultimatum that he find a solution to the unrest sweeping the country or be pushed aside, setting the stage for a possible showdown.
Morsy declared he was elected president in balloting that was free and representative of the will of the people.
…
It was unclear what steps the military would take given Morsy’s refusal to meet its Wednesday evening deadline. The military has previously stopped short of saying that it was suggesting a coup.
Hoping for the best for the people of Egypt.
