Egyptian opposition shuns Morsi's call for dialogue

With no foreseeable plan to rescind his self-serving decree of wide constitutional powers, it does not seem likely Morsi will delay the vote set for December 15 on a constitution drafted by an Islamist-led assembly said to fail to meet the aspirations of all Egyptians. Mursi's planned dialogue meeting was expected to go ahead Saturday, despite the fact most opposition factions would be absent.

Token gestures to appease the international community will not resolve the conflict in Egypt and rid a failing state of a dictator.

Where does the international community draw the line and
take action to stop the bloodshed?

Foreign Secretary expresses concern about violence in Cairo... Too little, too late?

On the 5th of December, Foreign Secretary William Hague stated: "We urge all parties to resolve their differences through a process of dialogue which allows all voices to be heard.”

Not only is this months too late, but what process of dialogue allows all voices to be heard? Who will be involved in this dialogue? And when exactly will it be held?

Will dialogue between fundamentalist Morsi and his opponents be successful in stopping the violence or is it an empty promise?
