This paper examines the two Egyptian revolutionary waves of 25th of January 2011 and 30th of June 2013 against Mubarak and the Muslim Brotherhood respectively. It analyses the role claimed by the Egyptian Army as a leader of these two waves, and the inherent contradiction between the Revolution’s ideals on one hand and the structural and behavioral organization of the Military Establishment on the other. It draws arguments from the 2014 Egyptian Constitution which bestowed upon the Army a privileged status incompatible with the march for democracy instigated by the Arab Spring, and concludes by affirming that change, intrinsically, is an object of refusal by the ruling mentality.
