USA ni taifa kubwa na lenye sauti kubwa duniani, hali kadhalika kwaEUROPEAN COUNTRIES , hivyo hawana budi kutoa msimamo wao kulingana na hali halisi ilivyokuwa inakwenda.
Pia ikumbukwe kuwa hiyo mnayoiita democrasia imetoka kwao hivyo wakikaa kimya huku wanaona watu wanadai haki zao ni wazi wataonekana kama ni wasaliti au watu wasiojali kitu walichokianzisha.
Ndani ya USA hili liko kisiasa sana, sababu hata Obama alipoonekana kuwa kimya kidogo kuna vijembe na kejeli kibao tu toka kwa Republican wakihitaji majibu kwa nini Obama ame-handle mambo sivyo.
All in all, Egypt ni mshirika mkubwa sana wa USA katika kuweka amani ndani ya Mashariki ya kati.
Hivyo hawawezi kukaa kimya hata siku moja.

Mallaba please don't assume that everybody here is as ignorant as you think. A simple reference to Wikipedia proves you wrong:

The history of democracy -- the history of empowering people by giving them a say in their political entities—traces back to Athens to its re-emergence and rise from the 17th century to the present day. According to one definition, democracy is a political system in which all the members of the society have an equal share of formal political power. In modern representative democracy, this formal equality is embodied primarily in the right to vote.
