A democratically elected President removed from office by the army, and placed under arrest. The constitution suspended. The head of Egypt's supreme constitutional court Adly Mansour, (a Mubarak man) appointed by the army until new presidential election are held (sometime in the future).
By any definition, what took place in Egypt on the 3rd July 2013 was a coup.
The morning after the Egyptian coup. the world echo's to the sound of rhetorical hypocrisy bellowing out from Obama, Hague and other "leaders" of the west. Under any other circumstances, these political opportunists would be hysterically condemning a military take over in a country with a democratically elected government and President in office. That is of course where such a government and President was acceptable to the west.
This coup has been in preparation since Morsi won the election last year. Practically all of Mubarak's gang are still in place or waiting for the call, the Egyptian army is still receiving $ billions from the west and it is only a matter of time before the Mubarak status qou is reinstated. Pro America, pro the west and anti Palestinian. Those "demonstrators" in Tahrir Square will soon find their enthusiasm for the army intervention ebbs away as they realise the real reasons and motives for the coup of July 3rd.
Footnote: For reasons known only to themselves, the sensors, sorry, the "moderators", of the Huffington Post have determined that this item is not suitable for publication in the comments section of the main article. It seems that there is little consistency within their "moderation" policy, as there are numerous other postings which may be considered as rather more contentious than this one. I have submitted a question to the HP asking what their reasons are for rejection. It remains to be seen what their response will be, provided of course that they actually reply.
