Morsi or Less

By giving the Muslim Brotherhood Government of President Muhammad Morsi a 48 hour deadline to compromise with the opposition or else face an Army-imposed solution, the Army is forcing Morsi out. As a result, the opposition now has no incentive to compromise. The only choices remaining for the Morsi government: resign, set a date for new elections or give up substantial power. Note: the Brotherhood will not go quietly.
