On Thanksgiving, as we toasted three generations of the family celebrating together, my visiting, Egyptian in-laws received a text. President Morsy was grabbing power.
The last few days, around our kitchen table, the December 15th vote on the new Egyptian constitution has been a key conversation. Declaring the 230 articles approved by the Islamists as “ridiculous”, my father-in-law decided enough is enough. Donning his cape, he flew home to Cairo this morning.
My question is – will he make it in time to save his beloved Egypt from a second revolution?
