I quit! during Wednesday's festivities between supporters of former president Mohammed Morsi ...the former president of Egypt. A proponent of the One Man, One Vote, One Timeprinciple, Morsi won election after the deposal of Hosni Mubarak and jumped to the conclusion it was his turn to be dictator... and security forces at Al-Azhar University in Cairo.
