It’s a shame that a country in the midst of a civil war has the clarity to do things that our elected officials seems to be to busy to do.
I read headline and thought, sure.
Why have a group with a ‘name’ be the cult of death, we can do it ourselves.
They might as well try to outlaw Islam for the effectiveness it will have.
Such things sell to the simple minds here.
Would Egypt even know the extent of the MBH, if they decided to switch sides to ‘save their skins’? Just askin.

Go back a few hundred posts for yesterday’s pictures and tweets
Already posting for the day
I’ll bet someone’s vacation is ruined.
President You Didn't Build That is probably consoling himself with pictures of Coptic Christian churches aflame and more golf games.
Egypt has been a military dictatorship for 80 years, since Colonel Nasser kicked out King Farouk...not likely to change any time soon.
Leave them to their own horrors... Muslim countries have nothing to offer us and we have little to offer them.
If we prop up one side or the other it's not like they're going to offer their people a 'bill of rights' or protection from a thuggy government. Hell, we don't even have protection from OUR thuggy government anymore. What was wonderful about the United States - our freedoms - are so tarnished now we have little to offer the downtrodden of the world. Want a drone to spy on you? Or an NSA to read your emails? How about some blowhard politicians to tell you want to eat and drink? Yeah, we don't have much to offer anymore...
They have power hungry thugs - puffed up with arrogance - we have power hungry thugs puffed up with arrogance. Egypt's created a hell on earth - we're working toward the same goal...
No reason to waste United States lives or treasure... cut our losses and let's get the hell out of there. And NO I don't want to support their corrupt thuggy leaders (on either side) in their grand lifestyle any more than I want to subsidize million dollar parties for the IRS in the US...
Too bad the US hasn’t done it. We decided to let them infiltrate every level of our military and security departments.
That’s ok, they can all come to the US. I’m sure hussein can put up a few in the WH or in his Chicago crib since it’s been empty for years. He’ll create jobs for them and set them up with EBT cards and free obamaphones. All’s good. No worries.
I thought Egypt already had outlawed the Muslim Brotherhood. Well, better late than never. The Egyptian army must now hunt down and destroy the Muslim Brotherhood if they want to save the country from a full blown disaster.
That's why the photo op for the first family's fireworks was cancelled last night. He didn't want the msm to see his tear streaked face.
Morsi can then/now return to the USA where with the help of Obama and all other Muslims, suited and skirted, the two sons of Morsi born previously in the USA can be hyped for POTUSA. The campaign will get help from those citizens who push that only place of birth is necessary to qualify for POTUSA.
I was gonna add that these groups have sought and gained asylum in the UK and US and others western nations because of the oppressive conditions in their countries of origin. One can look at it as a ruse to infiltrate the West. Roll out the red carpet. I’m sure the US would put anyone up who comes in the name of diversity and peace. We can spread ‘em out to bring some social justice and balance to our overly white zip code distribution.
Either clear the square or abdicate.
DEFINITELY A MOVE IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The rise of the MB brings up a curious conundrum. Morsi was legally elected with a large percentage of the vote. Everything was democratic. Except, like Hitler, Morsi wanted to use his legally elected powers to exterminate anything that wasn’t sharia with the support of the majority of Egyptians. What does this mean? It means by itself democratic elections do not automatically mean democratic results western-style. We should have laws here outlawing groups whose goals would include destroying democracy if elected. Can we think of any parties here in the U.S. who like to destroy freedom as it has been known in the U.S.? (snicker)
NOTE: Gen Al-Sisi, 58, received a masters degree from the U.S. War College in Carlisle, Pa, in 2006.
After Wed's bloodbath, Gen al-Sisi routed Muslims from the mosque where they had gathered to ID their dead---Al-Sisi then confiscated the Muzzie bodies.
===============================================
The military's vow to rebuild the long list of Christian churches torched by the Muslim Brotherhood will certainly gain the support of the American people....but there is NO WAY Obombo will turn against his pals----Morsi & his Muzzie Brothers. We are saddled w/ hater will never be one of US, he will always be one of Them.
=================================================
MILITARY.COM EXCERPT---US Pentagon officials declined to give specifics on conversations between DOD's Chuck Hagel and Egyptian Gen al-Sisi, but chief Pentagon spokesman George Little said that "US officials at all levels have made it clear that we support the democratic process in Egypt and that we hope that this period of tension can be resolved in a peaceful manner and that violence can be avoided." "We don't support any single party or group," Little said. "We believe that this needs to be resolved through political means."
Although the officials would not discuss the specifics of the military-to- military talks, the U.S. would need Gen al-Sisi's approval to move through Egyptian air space if Washington decided to send Marines to aid in the evacuation of U.S. personnel.
About 550 Marines and their tilt-rotor MV-22 Osprey aircraft are at bases in Spain and Italy on standby if they are needed. A Navy Amphibious Ready Group with 4,000 Marines and sailors aboard, led by the helicopter assault ship Kearsarge, was also in the region following completion of the Eager Lion training exercises in Jordan. © Copyright 2013 Military.com.

=============================================
AIN'T KARMA A *ITCH? S-o-o-o...... the helicopter assault ship Kearsarge, IS in the region. We were lied to----we were told it was not available to help endangered Americans in Benghazi.
Morsi won with 21 % of the population because the other parties mostly secular spilt all the other votes...so it wasn't a "large percent" just the "largest"
21 % is hardly a mandate...though Morsi / Obama / McCain thought it was.....that's why Morsi is cooling his ass in a military holding cell
This thing called "democracy" is real new to Egyptians...they screwed up version 1.0 by not consolidating power among similar political parties, like we do
Hopefully in version 2.0 (if there is one) they will figure out how to marginalize the MB voter block...and keep them a minority...side show..
Personally, I hope the Egyptian military takes out as many as possible...
And I still stand by what I said because its a simple fact. They may as well try to ban the sun for all the good it will do. The MB is a multi national political movement and will only be made stronger.
If anything this is an act of desperation.
