Egypt’s Tamarod plagued by division

A man buys t-shirt of Tamarod, meaning opposition "Rebel" movment, while other t-shirts of Egyptian revolution are seen at Tahrir Square in Cairo June 23, 2013. The "Rebel!" alliance is campaigning to force President Mohamed Mursi to resign. Mursi's opponents say they have gathered about 15 million signatures - more than the 13 million votes that elected Mursi a year ago - on a petition calling on him to step down.

Protesters opposing Egyptian President Mohamed Mursi hold up documents from the "Tamarod" campaign during a news conference at their headquarters in Cairo May 29, 2013. The Tamarod, meaning "rebel", campaign said on Wednesday that it has gathered more than seven million signatures for a petition aiming for a no-confidence vote against Egypt's President Mohamed Mursi which also aims at calling for holding early presidential elections.
