BREAKING NEWS: CELEBRATIONS IN EGYPT AS PRESIDENT MORSI IS REMOVED FROM OFFICE BY THE MILITARY.

The head of the Army, General Sameh Seif Elyazal made the announcement removing President Morsi from office and suspending the constitution.

The head of the constitutional court, Adly Mansour to take over running of the goverment.

President Morsi was removed after days of massive protest for and against his government. The military had given him a 48 hour ultimatum to resolve the issues or run the risk of being taken over by them. Which has now happened. This is the first time in the history of Egypt where a democratically elected government will be removed from office.

Again, they are not calling it a coup even though supporters of Morsi and Morsi himself via his twitter page has said it is a coup.

President Morsi was removed from office just after 18 months in power.

There is huge celebrations in Egypt with gun shot and fire works noise sounding every where.

I want to understand something, who defines democratically elected government?, its the people and when the people now feels that you no longer represent them, they can decide to call you back, just like they do a legislative officer; house of representative or senate member, same they should be able to do to the President, as has now happened with President Morsi. The people who elected him no more wants him to represent them because according to them, he did not represent them well. Brilliant. That to me is true DEMOCRACY.
