His point was mainly nonsense.
Its a retired former supreme court judge heading a commitee of 3 current judges 3 constitutional lawyers and one member of parliament and they are not drawing up a new constitution. They are dealing with a small number of amendments that were introduced as emergency legislation mainly transferred powers to Mubbarak, changed term limits, nominations for elections and freedom of information.
There will at a later date be another committee formed to draw up a new constitution which will then have to be put to a referendum.
Wierd isn't it, somehow it just doesn't sound as scary as "islamist drawing up new constitution".
