They paid a heavy price in blood--and did not wholly succeed. Hosni Mubarak, the president (and a former air-force commander), was ousted and jailed. But many of the uniformed men around him stayed in power, coexisting uneasily with a gaggle of strutting revolutionaries. That coexistence is now over. With a cool, calm announcement on August 12th, the army has been effectively sidelined by Muhammad Morsi, the newly elected president, who comes from the Muslim Brotherhood, an Islamist group. His scalps include Field-Marshal Muhammad Tantawi, the longtime defence minister who became Egypt's de facto ruler after Mr Mubarak's fall, his deputy on the secretive Supreme Council of the Armed Forces (SCAF) and several other ancient generals. This move has not stripped the armed forces of all their power. As in many Arab and African countries, they will retain political clout.
