itas reflected in our conversations with the old egyptian leaders. one of the objections raised to them was that they hadn't bought into that. and in the view ofhose who demonstrated against president morsi, therein are millions, they were demonstrating to save democracy with an argument more closely related to the one you've just been putting, that the government, howeve much it has been elected, was not providing an inclusive democracy, accountable to many different shades of opinion during its term of office. that is their argument. i don't think it's right for us to judge who's right and wrong in the politics of other countries. its vital that a new government in egypt doesn't fall prey to that same criticism, which in turn makes it vital that as soon as they can, they release people who have been in prison for political reasons, straight away that they do that. otherwise this charge will start to be made against them, just as it was against their predecessors, very important they do that. and that's why we're urgently advocating that. >> if a go
