President Mohamed Morsi's Thursday Degree was necessary to complete the achievements of the Egyptian Revolution. As it has been up to now, Mubarak's appointed judges and the top prosecutor were still deciding what the President can do, and what he couldn't do, effectively invalidating the revolution and turning Mr. Morsi into a cosmetic president on the basis of the previous Mubarak's laws! In short, Mubarak's judges and prosecutors, by protecting their positions, had turned themselves into a Supreme Council of the Egyptian Judiciary (SCEJ)! Thus, Egypt's authority had gone from Mubarak to the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces (SCAF), and from SCAF to the SCEJ, while the elected Egyptian parliament, and the elected president have been turned into water fetchers by Mubarak's old guard. And that old guard enjoyed the full support of the West who had done everything possible to keep the Muslim Brotherhood from exercising its parliamentary power first, and then frustrate Mr. Morsi from exercising any prerogatives that Mubarak had exercised with the West's blessing.
There should be no doubt that the West see Morsi as an anathema of Western and Israeli interests in the Middle East, especially after Mr. Morsi attended the Non-Aligned Conference of 120 states in Tehran, Iran, at the time that the Western media was heralding the isolation of Iran by the international community. That Conference proved that 65% of the world's states are on Iran's side - not on the West's side. Mr. Obama's praise of Mr. Morsi recently was definitely a phony praise to mask any Western involvement in the current anti-Morsi protests in Egypt - which is a certainty.
The object of all popular revolutions has been the sweeping of an unjust and despotic regime, and its full replacement by one controlled by the people. Mubarak's judges have tried to abort the authority of the new political order in Egypt - probably with encouragement from Western government who abhorred the revolution. But Egypt needs a new slate, and the freedom to fulfil all the aspirations of its revolution without any interference by Mubarak's stooges in Egypt's old judicial system, and without any interference by the West which still cannot accept the loss of Egypt from its sphere of influence.
The Egyptians won their revolution, but the Egyptian revolutionaries were like a pack of hyenas that brought down a big prey - like a buffalo (Mubarak), But now the lions (The Western powers) are moving in with instigated protests to take over the kill, and reclaim their lost hunting ground! Similar protests preceded the successful overthrows of Mohammed Mossadegh; of Salvador Allende; of Manuel Ortega; of Daniel Noriega, of Manuel Zelaya, but were unsuccessful against Mahmud Ahmadinejad!
Mohamed Morsi is on the anvil now, and the Egyptian Revolution is at stake, because the West has perfected its undercover regime destabilizing operations over the last half of the 20th century! Nikos Retsos, retired professor
