13 Egyptians are Taking Hold of True Democracy 2013

Egyptians are Taking Hold of True Democracy
2013

Egyptians never gave up on true, complete democracy, despite what Jackson Diehl suggested in the Washington Post this week

The Egyptian youth he wrote about have, since 2005, been struggling for a true democracy, not a fake one. Under the Mubarak regime, Egyptians suffered under a government that used elections to convince the international community that Egypt was functioning democratically

Under Morsi, the situation did not change

Diehl surely does not believe that democracy is achieved with a ballot box and nothing else

He must know that true democracy is a result of a long process that ends, not begins, with the ballot box

Remember the chants of theJanuary 25 revolution: “Bread! Freedom! Social Justice! Human Dignity!” Average Egyptians are well aware that fulfillment of these four demands is necessary for a true democracy—without them, there is no democracy

These were the demands of those calling for change, and they supersede the West’s seemingly limited definition of democracy

Awareness of the complex nature of democracy led the Egyptian youth to insist first on the creation of a new constitution following Mubarak’s February 2011 ouster

However, a poorly-managed transition led to a rushed referendum on transitional constitutional amendments and then elections, contrary to the wishes of the Egyptian people

This is why we envisioned a second wave of street-action—to correct Egypt’s course to the one envisioned by the people’s revolution

This is the same reason Egypt’s youth resisted military rule and called for a transitional period that would lead to true democracy

After the period of military rule, Egypt’s political elites and revolutionaries failed to agree on a candidate who could represent the values of the revolution, leading some to vote for Mohammed Morsi to avoid bringing his opponent, Mubarak’s prime minister to power

Others chose to boycott the elections or nullify their votes

Many accepted Morsi as the new president and engaged in dialogue with him, hoping to amend the constitution and reform Egypt

Unfortunately, Morsi ignored the opinions of the youth and their suggestions on how to manage the transitional phase

He chose, instead, to issue a dictatorial constitutional declaration without consulting anyone, even his own advisors, leading many of them to resign in the month following this action

Diehl suggests that our ousting Morsi made a sham of democracy, but the real sham was the Morsi presidency

He did not fulfill any of his election promises

He usurped the powers of the judiciary and constitutional court

He established an authoritarian state and ignored the calls of the Egyptian people to satisfy the four demands of theJanuary 25 revolution and for transitional justice resulting in the people’s demand for early presidential elections

The western media, however, chose for some reason to describe this unprecedented movement of millions of Egyptians as a coup against democracy

Those who voted for Morsi did so for his electoral platform and his promises to achieve the demands of the revolution

When he failed miserably to do so, was it not the right of the people to withdraw their confidence in him and to demand early presidential elections

Can we disregard the will of over 22 million Egyptians whosigned the rebel petitions in June 2013

How can all of this be disregarded

How can you focus solely on the army’s intervention to prevent a likely civil war and disregard the People’s will? The Egyptian army did not act alone: Al-Azhar, the Coptic Church, the youth, and other forces were on their side

The army merely adopted the road map prepared by the June 30 Front, among others, and refused to take power

To be a military coup, there must be a military rule

The Egyptian army did not rule for even an hour

Presidential authority was transferred to the head of the constitutional court in accordance with the road map set by political forces representing the millions of Egyptians who took out to the streets

Diehl uses the example of Poland in his article, however, Peru and the government of Alberto Fujimori is a much more applicable example

Fujimori, elected in 1990, seized unconstitutional authority in 1992, limiting the power of the judiciary and otherwise subverting democracy

The United States then ceased to recognize him as the legitimate president of Peru, and most European countries followed suit

Why is Egypt’s case any different

Is it because the American government is upset for losing its ally and supporter of its interests in Egypt and the Middle East, despite this ally’s contempt for human rights and democracy, which the Americans loudly proclaim support for

Moreover, if Morsi remained in power, the upcoming parliamentary elections would have been entirely regulated by a Shura Council dominated by his Freedom and Justice Party

The organizations monitoring the elections would certainly be only chosen and approved by the Muslim Brotherhood

The use of religious slogans would have been employed to win votes, since his government refused to criminalize such behaviorand they would have used the Brotherhood’s vast charity network to campaign and influence votes in the poor regions across the country

In such a system, how could the opposition have a chance to compete

Diehl complains as well about the current government holding a number of political prisoners in isolation and shutting down media channels

What Diehl fails to mention is that those people are facing charges of escapingfrom prison; conspiring with foreign countries; inciting violence, murder and terror; and killing Egyptian soldiers in Sinai

Considerable evidence exists for these crimes. The media networks that were shut down were only promoting violence and killing of opposition

Those will be allowed to resume operations, but only after laws are passed to regulate a code of practice for all media and criminalizing the promotion violence and hate speech

I believe that the civilian demonstrations against Morsi will remain in the hearts and minds of Egyptians as a true expression of the hopes and dreams of a nation that has now twice risen against dictatorship and corruption

They have not settled, and they will not settle until they are truly on the path to a better future–regardless of whether the Washington Post calls it a coup or a revolution

May Egypt and its people ever remain free, dignified, and independent

With My Best Wishes
Mr. Ashraf Fouda
