Coup or Revolution?

摘要

"Do you think the egyptians are ready for democ- racy?" That was the question that HBO's Real Time host, Bill Maher, asked Time International editor Bobby Ghosh during a discussion of Time's July 22 cover story about the ouster of Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi, the country's first democratically elected President. The story, by Jerusalem bureau chief Karl Vick, prompted pundits and readers to debate whether Morsi's removal was the result of popular opposition to his autocratic rule or another military coup that might undermine Egypt's nascent democracy.
