If they do not cut off Iran, then they are not serious.

Besides, the crowd chanting “To Jerusalem we go, martyrs in the millions” in Tahrir Square back in 2011 were not MB and Salafi exclusively, by a long shot; so thinking that the majority of Egyptians are not “Islamist” is folly, especially given their new president’s neo-Nasserist outlook, which does not exclude Sharia, pan-Arabism or other such antisemitic and anti-Western notions.

There are forces in Egypt and in the US who trust and cooperate. In spite of Obozo.

Egypt has an ancient history prior to Islam. Egyptians know about Jews and Christians.

It is clearly demonstrated that el Sisi protected the Copts from total distruction and is rebuilding the burned/destroyed churches.

There is active cooperation between the Israel military and the Egyptian military.

Egypt is not a nation that directly embraces the West. But they were under English rule for a long time. They understand us.

I personally like el Sisi. I have friends in Cairo. Those I know have demonstrated they are knowledgeable and honest.

Past that, you can think what you like.
