The tumultuous situation of countries that experienced the collapse of authoritarian regime has made many to reassess the previous promising assessments. Previously, civil uprisings across the Arab world attracted attentions and were deemed as fundamental blow to dictatorship and authoritarian systems still practiced in part of the world particularly in Arab countries. But the ongoing situation reveals that rise of a stable democracy in these countries has remained mere as hope similar to the period of dictatorship.

Same is the case with those who were interpreting the movement as “Islamic awakening”.  However, the notion was supported because the Islamist groups were/are the winner of political post-dictatorship scenario. With the breakout of chaos in Egypt and uncertainty in Tunisia and Libya, as usual this wing has stuck to conspiracy theory, saying that instability is fuelled by western countries that fear the rise of Islamists in the region.

So, now with the dependency of democracy to numerous if’s and if not’s in countries that have undergone regime changes people may feel nostalgic for the previous stability instead of uncertainty. Egyptians have sharply divided and there is no solution on the table how to find way out of the mayhem.

The political compromise has replaced with belligerency and political intolerance. Tens of people have lost lives and hundreds injured while the diplomacy has lost power to reunite Egyptians. The only hope that has remained to restore peace and stability that is depending on the muscle of army and security forces. In spite of continuous warning of the military, still the supporters of Muslim Brotherhood are committed to bring their president back to power which looks unrealizable.

On Monday the supporters of the ousted president called for new protests, threatening to deepen the country’s crisis as the EU foreign policy chief met both the government and the opposition. The Anti-Coup Alliance groups organizing protests against the ouster of president Mursi urged demonstrators to march on security buildings on Monday night and called a million-man march for Tuesday.

Their statement came after the National Defense Council warned on Sunday that it would take “decisive and firm action” against demonstrators if they went beyond their right to peaceful protest. Tensions were running high after the deaths of 72 people at a pro-Mursi rally in Cairo on Saturday.

It is feared that the gravity of the situation ends up to engraving of the toddler of democracy before it grows and stands against the deep rooted authoritarian culture.
