Default Unrest in Egypt: Opposing Camps Clash Violently in Cairo

Egypt's vice president proposed ideas on Wednesday to defuse unrest over a draft constitution that has polarized the most populous Arab nation, with Islamists fighting opposition protesters near the presidential palace.Vice President Mahmoud Mekky said amendments to disputed articles could be agreed with the opposition. A written agreement could then be submitted to the next parliament, to be elected after a referendum on the constitution on Dec. 15. It looks as President Morsi has realised the gravity of situation and probably pushing his VP for negotiations. After all he has to save his face also.
