Morsi is no more-si

World leaders respond to the dramatic events in Egypt following the army's overthrow of the first democratically elected president, Mohammed Morsi, after days of anti-government unrest. The army's move to suspend the constitution has drawn a cautious response from leaders in the Western world, with many calling for restraint and a peaceful transition of power. Some countries in the Gulf, however, have welcomed Morsi's ousting. But now that the army are back in power, they need to move quickly and responsibly to return full authority back to a democratically elected civilian government as soon as possible through an inclusive and transparent process, and to avoid any arbitrary arrests of Morsi and his supporters. The chance of a democratic future was already hard won for Egypt by the Egyptian people two and a half years ago, and with that in mind, military intervention should not be necessary to resolve disputes in a democratic system. The preservation of fundamental rights, including freedom of speech and assembly, remains of vital importance. Also of vital importance is a pyramid in Peru that was bulldozed. Authorities say the pyramid, situated at the oldest archaeological site near the capital, has been destroyed. They are pressing criminal charges against two real-estate companies blamed for tearing down the structure, which was 6 metres high. The pyramid in question was one of 12 found at the El Paraiso complex near Lima and is thought to be at least 4,000 years old. According to Peru's tourism ministry, it was a religious and administrative centre long before the pre-Columbian Inca civilisation. That was just not on. Bulldozing ancient ruins for one's own agenda is a symbol of greed and disrespect. Those bellends have committed irreparable damage to a page of Peruvian history.
