After 20 years of Mubarak autocratic rule the Egyptians finally snapped and rose up to remove him through people's power popularly known as the "Arab Spring."
Mubarak was ousted in 2011 after 18 days of demonstrations by millions of Egyptians. Power was transferred to the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces. Egyptians all over the country were jubilant with the fall of Mubarak and look forward to a change for the better, a democratically elected president and civilian government.
Over a year later election was called and a new president was elected.
Muhammad Morsi was the first freely elected president of Egypt and just before his first anniversary in office huge demonstrations, bigger than the one that brought down Mubarak, flared across Egypt calling him to step down. The army gave him an ultimatum to step down, Morsi refused.
Morsi was finally removed by the army on 3rd July 2013. The situation still looked uncertain as the Muslim Brotherhood threatened to fight to the last to keep Morsi in office.
We always want change for the better, but sometimes change don't come the way we want it.

CIA is everywhere behind the scene in the Middle East. They have two things to protect, J and O. The restive the region is the safer will J be and the easier will O be controlled.
American neo-imperialism!
Sometimes we may not get the change that we hope for INITIALLY but what's certain tho' we will NEVER get better if there is no change.
