Feds plan to give Egypt armed-to-the-teeth ships
WND ^ | Aug. 3, 2013 | Steve Peacock

Harpoon missile among weapons aboard patrol vessels

The U.S. Senate has rejected an effort to crack down on U.S. taxpayer monies being forwarded to the violence-ridden nation of Egypt, and now the Obama administration is preparing to send more heavily armed, missile-equipped naval patrol ships to the interim government there.

For that purpose, Washington is hiring private contractors to make the transoceanic delivery on its behalf.

This shipment of Fast Missile Craft, or FMC, comes at a time when congressional interest in suspending U.S. military aid to Egypt had heated up – to the point there was a Senate proposal to cut it off. That aid, according to federal law, must be suspended in response to military coups.

The ONLY reason for Egypt to have these kind of ships is to attack Israel! I think the last time Egypt was attacked by sea was during the Suez Canal crisis. Hussein Soetoro just loves to arm his buddies, the Muzzie Brotherhood.

That’s our Obama!

Anything to piss on our Judeo Christian heritage, our history, our successes and all at our expense.

He will precipitate a third world war and a window for Islam to attack America. I am not quite sure in what order.

America needs to wake up to this fine gentlemanly GHAZI.

What??? We have ships that work??

I thought that due to sequester we couldn’t refuel our ships (nuke carriers).

So we can’t sail our own, but can give away ships.

This is so wrong ... lost for civil words.

In a nutshell.

Why every American liberal/Dem Jew doesn't reject Hoosane post-haste and realize he is trying to exterminate Israel is...beyond me.

So now Hoosane has alienated Mossad AND the American Seal/SpecOps community. And hung other Alphabet orgs out to dry. Not advisable.

Yep.

Except that op stepped on too many toes and there aren't enough fingers to plug up that dike.

Our so-called-leaders have whizzed by “uninformed”, blown past “incompetence” and are well into “insanity”.

The kenyan or his handlers find it currently politically inexpedient to simply cut Israel off from ammo and spare parts and such so they are trying to arm Israel’s enemy sufficiently that when they do cut Israel off then the kenyan’s fondest dream for the ME might be realized.

Thanks again for putting this out regarding Seal Team 6, the videos and this book. I am ashamed to be an American. WHY??:

The warriors on that CH-47 Chinook helicopter were compromised by their leaders:

The book is being offered for pre-publication sale as of July 4th as a way of honoring our founding fathers and the many brave men and women who continuously put their lives on the line to declare America’s freedom from tyranny and terror.
