What many Egyptians cannot understand is: Why is the U.S. administration siding with the forces of oppression in their country and assisting with its transformation into a failed state under the leadership of the Muslim Brotherhood? Egypt simply cannot be allowed to become another Somalia or Afghanistan, controlled by its own version of the Taliban.
The Egyptian people are astounded. They simply do not understand the Obama Administration's efforts to bring the Muslim Brotherhood back to power.
In an effort to make some sense of the Obama Administration's policies, Amr Adeeb, a prominent Egyptian commentator, argues that the U.S. is helping the Muslim Brotherhood to achieve power, in order to turn Egypt into a magnet for jihadist fighters. The goal, Adeeb states, is to turn Egypt into another Syria or Afghanistan and discredit Islamism as a viable political movement.
To Westerners, this may seem like a bizarre conspiracy theory, but for Egyptians it helps explain why the U.S. government is supporting an organization that has openly declared jihad against the West, engaged in threats of war with Israel and Ethiopia, demolished dozens of ancient historic churches, set hospitals on fire, and murdered Christians in the streets. The Muslim Brotherhood has no respect for the rule of law, but the Obama Administration treats the Egyptian military that removed the group from power as a threat to democracy itself.

Morsi also straightforwardly stated that he was recreating an Islamic "Caliphate."

Obama sympathizes with the Muslim Brotherhood. that’ why.

Eureka! I've just had a fit of inspiration! Why don't we make President You Didn't Build That president of Egypt? They'd probably appreciate him, and we could easily distract Joey "the Genius" Biden for three and a half years, couldn't we?
Because we're "led" by a scum-sucking muzzie and no one in our "opposition party" has the stones to oppose him.

Just as some in this country don’t see that he is an anti-American Muslim....always has been.
“Correct me if I’m wrong. I thought the Egyptians had an election that put the MB into power”
You sir are correct. However, it only took the population one year to figure out they made a mistake worth fightin’ over, they didn’t re-elect it.
The only people who support Obama are also Anti-American. THAT much has got to be clear at this point.
I was looking up CSCOPE school curriculum in Texas and found this: (from an article dated 02/15/2013) “At the end of class, the students were assigned to write a paper about Egypt. According to one student, they were instructed to discuss “how Egypt was a good country until democracy took over, and that things were finally corrected when the Muslim brotherhood came into power.”
Getting involved in any Muslim dust up never ends well for us.
They studied Obama's techniques, no doubt. Seriously.
You are correct.... But the MB got only 21 % of the vote because the many opposing parties did not consolidate their political parties into larger blocks of voters...so the MB won and took it as a mandate to turn Egypt into a Islamic theocracy piecemeal by piecemeal....
Remember this thing called “democracy” is rather new to Egypt and hopefully version 2.0 will be better...if it ever happens...
Wow!
Who knew all of those Egyptians were racist. >SARC
It is simple and many Egyptians do understand. The kenyan is a sunni moslem and committed to the caliphate project.
Tell then to speak to the Hondurans who faced a similar perplexing question.
Really? I’m not surprised. For God’s sake, the very first thing he did when he seized power was to send money, $900 Million, I recall, to HAMAS...a terrorist group!
“What many Egyptians cannot understand is: Why is the U.S. Administration siding with the forces of oppression in their country and assisting with its transformation into a failed state under the leadership of the Muslim Brotherhood? These conditions all run contrary to American interests.
In the Middle East, a strong economy, military, and police are the cornerstones of stability. Egypt was the first Arab nation to choose the path of peace with Israel. Egypt is the nerve system of the Arab and the Islamic world. The U.S. has a strong interest in a stable, modern, and prosperous Egypt. It simply cannot be allowed to become another Somalia or Afghanistan, controlled by its own version of the Taliban.
Michael Armanious is a Coptic-American who has written extensively about his homeland, Egypt.”
