Adly Mansour: Morsi, the nation's first democratically elected president, was dismissed by the Egyptian army Wednesday after weeks of massive protests in Cairo's Tahrir Square. By Thursday morning, Adly Mansour, chief justice of Egypt's supreme court, had already been sworn in as Egypt's interim president, according to CTV. "I would think the majority of the Egyptian people believe it's a military intervention because of the way it started -- it started with the rebel campaign which was basically a popular movement to bring the people onto the streets and they succeeded," said Dina El Wakil, an Egyptian who spoke to Canada AM after taking part in the protests along with millions of other Egyptians and Some world leaders are choosing their words very carefully when discussing the ouster of Egyptian president Mohammed Morsi on Wednesday, with the descriptions of what happened ranging from a "coup" to a "military intervention," depending on who you're speaking with -- and who they support. But whether or not the militarys decision to remove Morsi was a coup d'etat is an important question that remains to be answered.
