As Egyptian Americans, we support the millions of Egyptians who took to the street to refuse the military coup which ousted the first freely elected president, Dr. Morsi. The issue is not about a person or party, but about constitutional legitimacy and democracy. We will not allow legitimate votes to be thrown in the trash. Shortly after the coup, many channels experienced crackdowns from the military for airing live scenes of protesters supporting Morsi. Political prisoners were immediately arrested as well. Now they are killing pro-Morsi protesters in cold blood. It's every human being's duty to support democracy and denounce bloodshed. I urge all Americans to sign this petition to advance stability and democracy in the largest and most important country in the Middle East, Egypt.
