Seventy-one percent of Egyptians have no sympathy for supporters of ousted president Mohammed Morsi, a new opinion poll had revealed. In a survey carried out by the Egyptian Centre for Public Opinion Research, Baseera, 20 percent said they had some sympathy with pro-Morsi demonstrators, with nine percent saying they were unsure. In terms of the breakdown, 21 percent of rural residents said the ex-president\'s supporters were justified in their protests, with 67 percent voting the other way. In urban areas, 17 percent said they had sympathy with Morsi\'s supporters, with 77 percent rejecting this stance. In Upper Egypt, there was more support for pro-Morsi protests, with 27 percent of those surveyed backing the demonstrations, compared ?to 15 percent in Lower Egypt and 16 percent in the urban governorates. ? Baseera chief Maged Othman told reporters: \"Despite the lack of clear ?variation, we see more sympathy for the ex-president\'s supporters as the levels of education increase.\" Politics professor Mohammed Salman said to Arab Today: \"These numbers are close to the ?reality in Egypt, as a large number of Egyptians do not want the Muslim Brotherhood’s rule and ?took to the streets demanding their departure. \"Therefore not many Egyptians are in favour of protests supporting Morsi, and most of those who are don\'t have the educational awareness.\"?
