Why do you say the secularists are outnumbered by the islamists? If the mil supports the protesters, and it looks possible, than the outcome is not assured.
You are more negative than I am.
I suspect that the military in Egypt have an ulterior motive for possibly supporting the secularists. Think of the MB's stance on Israel, and then think of three words, which I am absolutely certain that the Egyptian military is thinking as well...
(PS those three words are Aswan, High, and Dam...)

Because I prefer the truth to liberal lies. These facts were borne out in polls even during Mubarak’s time; the vast majority of “al-Masri” (Arab Egyptians, vast majority Muslim) are sympathetic with Hamas, seek the destruction of Israel, and want to see a new Caliphate appear. The Muslim Brotherhood would not be in power without the help of the military, bottom line; and that means that the military is now sympathetic to their view.
Reality is not shaped by our personal positivity or negativity. Hitler was not what he was because a majority of people outside Germany were “negative” about him, by any stretch of the imagination.
