More than anything else, modern Democracy provides stability for the Status Quo, for though change may come during election cycles it is generally incremental, and easily reversed within a near term time window. Plutocrats and Oligarchs that live in Democratic States are really never at risk of having their lives upended. We all know in the United States that the Rich and the Corporations they own control both political parties through campaign financing, and any overt change that appears to take place can be incrementally whittled away, out of public sight, by the Senators and Representatives the Rich, and their Corporations own.
So, there is a lot at stake when 33 million people take to the streets and topple a Government. That is extracurricular political behavior that the Plutocrats don't control. Therefore, you will see leaders across a diverse political spectrum decrying the ouster of Morsi. It is not the man or his government they care about, it is the lack of control surrounding his ouster. The Popular Uprising Dynamic is the Plutocrats darkest fear. That is why US Authorities, for instance, will dutifully log the cellphone numbers of all who participate in an Occupy rally, but they pay little attention to individuals that set off bombs at the Boston Marathon.
