When Egypt Has More Guts Than America
American Thinker ^ | 10/30/2014 | By Karin McQuillan

Egypt responded strongly to a Hamas jihadi terror attack that killed 30 Egyptians soldiers, with helicopter strikes, a curfew of 100,000 people, and the announcement they are going build a security wall.  to control the border with Gaza. 

Unlike President Obama, Egyptian President Al-Sisi has no trouble identifying the enemy and didn’t feel the need to assure people that Islamic terrorists are lone wolves, representing nothing and no one.  Instead he asserted the attack was supported by foreign forces.  He vowed to protect the lives of Egyptian military at home and to pursue an “extensive war” against the jihadists, warning that the war with jihadis would not be ended anytime soon.

The contrast with American weakness is stark.  Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are well known for their pro-Muslim Brotherhood policies.  Democrat leadership has brought Brotherhood operatives into the Whitehouse, the State Department, and dangerously, in positions to dictate training and policy to the FBI and Homeland Security in the name of cultural sensitivity.  Democrats will not let us secure our border. 

The latest: the Democrat Administration's ideas for protecting our soldiers from jihadi attacks on their families at home in the U.S. are for military families to avoid public gatherings, remove “identifiers” from clothing, and scrub their children’s facebook page.  

The (The Pentagon Force Protection Agency) alert is titled “Recent Threats and Individual Protective Measures.”

Yeah sure but if their president was from Kenya they would be singing a different tune.

Exactamundo.

Where there is a will there is a way, and we all know what Obama’s will is - fundamentally transforming America.

Hillary and Barak represent some Americans, but they don't represent America when out of office. When in office, they represent America in a ministerial sense, but not necessarily the collective sense of the nation. Whether you agree with the decisions or not, I'd suggest GWB's reaction to 9/11 doesn't fit the authors premise. And if in a similar incident, the Mexican Army attacked US law enforcement, resulting in 30 deaths, I think President Trump would respond.

Is there an update to this 2014 article? Especially with keeping our military safe at home.
