If we cut all aid to Egypt, it would be fine with me. Why should we be paying their bills, year after year?

On the other hand, the purpose of this threat is to persuade the Generals not to depose Morsi and his Muslim Brotherhood. The threat is, if you depose Morsi, we’ll cut your pay. Or even bring down the military entirely, since it has gotten very dependent on our tax dollars over the years since Jimmy Carter made his deal with them.

As I predicted, we now will see his true colors....

A jehadist Marxist Muslim.

“I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.”

So Obama is giving the Egyptian military leaders a choice of which way they want to be killed - strangled slowly by a US cutoff or killed by a triumphant Muslim Brotherhood as soon as Morsi feels secure again. Obama is clearly backing jihad by Christian hating transnational terrorists. He supports the Muslim Brotherhood, Al Qaeda in Syria, terror brigades in Libya, and so on. Obama is the greatest threat to the greatest number of people himself.

This should leave no doubt that the Obama administration is not really supporting democracy, but the Muslim Brotherhood.

I had NPR on this afternoon and heard them talking about this. They never tied obama to Morsi. If it was any republican they would have never stopped with the “President X’s hand-picked leader” bla, bla, bla...

Seems to be a little Egyptian Community Organizing going on against Obama, the American Imperialist Dog.
