CITIZENS IN THE EGYPTIAN CAPITAL SEEMED DETERMINE  TO FORCE THE GOVERNMENT TO ACCEPT CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT, DESPITE DISCOURAGEMENT.

      Citizens in the Egyptian capital Cairo that have gathered at Tahrir Square to protest the government's action seemed determine to force the government to accept Constitutional Amendment believed by many people may result in a fairly shared power of government and reduce President Mursi overwhelming power in office. However, the President has extended the required referendum for Constitutional Amendment untill next Saturday and used military, instead of the police forces to discipline , or arrest violent demonstrators and restore order in the city. Some sources have expressed disapproval of military intervention with the use of force to suppress civilian demonstrators as undemocratic and may further endanger the fledgling Democracy in Egypt that needs to be encouraged and supported, instead of discouraged, or suppressed by the various governments units and agents that entailed the military and the police forces.
