Egypt's top court suspends work indefinitelyBy Hamza Hendawi, Associated PressShare<small class="label">Comments

</small>7:35PM EST December 2. 2012 - CAIRO (AP) — Egypt's highest court joined a judicial rebellion against President Mohammed Morsi on Sunday by declaring an open-ended strike on the day it was supposed to rule on the legitimacy of two key assemblies controlled by allies of the Islamist leader.


The strike by the Supreme Constitutional Court and opposition plans to march on the presidential palace on Tuesday take the country's latest political crisis to a level not seen in the nearly two years of turmoil since Hosni Mubarak's ouster in a popular uprising.


Judges from the country's highest appeals court and its sister lower court were already on an indefinite strike, joining colleagues from other tribunals who suspended work last week to protest what they saw as Morsi's assault on the judiciary.


The last time Egypt had an all-out strike by the judiciary was in 1919, when judges joined an uprising against British colonial rule.

Im not so sure that this strike is the way to go there. Getting out of the way and not being in the process sometimes is not exactly the most effecient method. Retreat sometimes not being a wise choice. Never underestimate the negative effects of just giving the battlefield over to the enemy(if indeed thats the case there ). Take our case here in America for instance, we do not rise up and otherthrow this illegal , corrupt and dastardly obama regime because we still have faith in the Constitution, the judicial system and and the electoral process.
Meaning , that he can not run again, so we think to just endure four more years. My take is four more years and whats left may not be recoverable, and its even likely thats obama's plan too. To destroy it beyond repair, a 22 or 26 trillion dollar debt should do the trick when combined with a healthcare fiasco the likes of which the world has never seen!
However , maybe the court strike will have far more meaning there than it would here. If here obama would just use it to ram far more crap down our collective throats!-Tyr
