Obama Inc Threatens to Cut Military Aid to Egypt if Morsi is Overthrown
Front Page ^ | 7/2/13 | Daniel Greenfield

Kerry and Co. have been insisting that we have to keep plowing money into Morsi’s Brotherhood regime because it’s in America’s national security interests. Those claims never held much water and they hold even less water now that unnamed Obama officials are warning the military that if it takes power, it will face a loss of that same military aid.

U.S. officials said Washington has suggested to Morsi that he call early elections, though they underlined they were demanding specific steps — and they said they had underlined to Egypt’s military that a coup would have consequences for U.S. aid. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly about the matter.

Now there’s a great idea. Destabilize the military in Egypt...

This guy Obama has a real knack for jumping out of the frying pan into the fire.

I got the impression today that something was rotten in Cairo when HuffPo headline went from celebrating Cairo riots and the near-demise of Morsi to posting a big smiling picture of him top center of the front page.

Except now Obama Inc. is throwing the Egyptian military leadership under the bus to try and salvage the Morsi regime. This was never about aiding the Egyptian military. It was about aiding the Brotherhood.

The Obama people are worse than we thought ... and considering how we feel about them - that's saying a lot.

But, but, but, didn’t O get a Nobel Peace Prize? Surely he knows what he’s doing.

Sad thing is, he does. He fully intends the MuslimBro-hood to take over the entire MiddleEast.

And the MSM will continue to hide his true colors as long as they are able to do so. Hopefully it won’t work for much longer.

May the MSM suffer greatly for what they’ve done to our country.

Its the Chicago Way. Threaten and “advise of consequences”.

I saw that sign earlier today and several other gems like it. The Egyptian people know full well who helped bring this disaster to them. They are holding Obama accountable. Too bad that level of intelligence isn’t expressed here in this country.
