MB took over power through a revolution to which they contributed very little. They also won an election which was not entirely fair and legitimate and had a lot to do with a notorious ally such as Salafists. What was really obvious in the past year was that MB doesn't know politics and this led to them losing many of their fans. The military had an undeniable role in forcing Morsy out but it would have never been possible if it hadn't been for the masses in the streets.
Turk, While you could call it a coup by definition, there are two things you need to consider; first, not every coup is necessarily a bad thing (especially when it is motivated by the people's demands) and second, Egypt's model is perhaps a unique one for the way its military function. Also, would you still oppose the coup if it was triggered by MB fans protesting in the streets and against a secular government? Don't misuse the terms you do not believe in yourself and then you may be taken more seriously. You can argue that MB must have stayed at power or that they are what Egyptians need but to cry over a coup because it's deposed a "democratically" elected government only makes you look like a hypocrite.
Ahmed, congrats my friend. We've had a revolution experience and we know what important role the first post-revolution years where things are taking shape play in the country's future. Revolutions ruin everything good or bad, it's hard to distinguish between opportunists and those who actually care about the country and the people. I understand how important it was for Egyptians to be rid of a group whose inexperience (wouldn't say bad intentions, I do believe that MB can still have an influence on the future picture of Egypt) could cost Egypt a lot. There's no time to waste on celebrating their failure and looking for revenge, you cannot force them out of the power cycle. Really hope you find a way which will exploit all potentials towards a bright future.
