American Assistant Secretary of the State is out with the
foreign ministers of Qatar and UAE to bring the matter on table for purposeful
talks to solve the problem. Is it not a
fact that UAE was among a few countries who first of all supported the coup and
offered a huge 'prize amount' to general el-Sisi in the name of financial aid
for Egypt. Now when the situation seems out of control of the authorities, the
same countries have stepped up for negotiations between the military head
el-Sisi and the Muslim Brotherhood.
Only a few days back John Kerry, the Secretary of the State, in a bare talk with Pakistani GEO TV,
shied not in sticking up for the coup by the Egyptian military commander.
According to him it was a step to save the democracy. Really ridiculous and
shameful!
It has made the matter unclouded that the coup had American
backing. General el-Sisi's recent complaint about how the Americans first
pushed him in hot-waters by encouraging the coup and then turned their back
from supporting him to crush the Muslim Brotherhood is a self-evidence of the
fact that America had patronized the intrigue.
As for Kerry's statement it is really awful. If existence of
a rowdy crowd, which stayed at Tehreer Square with illicit acts of raping the
lady journalists and women participating in the same demonstration, with the
demand of removing an elected president from his post by force is justified,
then the democratic principle of electing the representatives and heads of the
states and government will meet its death.
Then why not another huge disciplined and peaceful
gathering, not less in number, proves right in demanding to bring the deposed
president back, restore the constitution and parliament?
The question is that the negotiators are on whose side? Are
they out to shoot the general's trouble or they sincerely want Egypt out of the
trouble? If they are well-wishers of the Egypt and Egyptian nation then they
will have to be just and fair and strongly refute the coup.
Mr. Khairat el-Shater is right in his stand of refusing to
meet with the delegation. He pointed out the right direction. He advised them to
go and hold talks with Dr. Muhammad Morsi who still holds the mandate.
Negotiating with the meditators by Muslim Brotherhood and FJ
party with minus Morsi means showing their backs to the man who is steadfastly
on his stand that general el-Sisi betrayed him and proved dishonest to his oath
by coup. Because what he did was unlawful and unconstitutional, so, he had to
be punished for that. Munir Ahmed Khalili
