CAIRO (Reuters) - Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi and U.S. President Donald Trump discussed ways to boost the fight against terrorism and extremism on Monday and the new American leader underscored his commitment to bilateral ties, the two countries said.
Trump told Sisi in a telephone call he appreciated the difficulties faced by Egypt in its "war on terror" and affirmed his administration's commitment to supporting the country, Sisi's spokesman Alaa Youssef said in a statement.
"The U.S. president also expressed during the call his looking forward to the president's awaited visit to Washington which is being prepared for through diplomatic channels," the statement said.
White House spokesman Sean Spicer told a news briefing that Trump and Sisi "discussed ways to deepen the bilateral relationship and support Egypt's fight against terrorists."
"President Trump underscored the United States remains strongly committed to the bilateral relationship, which has helped both countries overcome challenges in the region for decades," Spicer added.

Not only is the man gettin' it done, he's gettin' the right things done.
Not just American history books will record these events.
Now let’s get Assad aboard in exchange for material and political support.
Hopefully, after De Vos gets done beating the teachers’ unions into submission, history books will actually become historically accurate.
Careful now. One country speaking to another country is now treason. Lol.
We are going to kill Wahhabi sect sunni by the tens of thousands and no embedded communist press! Bookmark this. Flame thrower those gODLESS bastards!!
we will beat RADICAL ISLAMIC TERROR!
Nonetheless, al Sisi, proceeded to smash the M/B and throw them out of Egyptian politics....he vowed to rebuild the 65 Christian churches the M/B had torched.
Russia's Vladimir Putin assured Pres al Sisi he endorsed these anti-Muslim efforts.
=============================================
It should be remembered that while Morsi and the Muslim Brotherhood were in charge in Egypt, Obama and Secy Hillary showered them with praise and provided billions of dollars in aid, arms, tanks, and planes.
Egypt has unceremoniously thrown the Muslim Brotherhood out of Egyptian politics.... and hasn’t forgotten the support offered to the Muslim Brotherhood.
Egypt has now charged Obama and Hillary Clinton for conspiring and collaborating with the M/B and advancing their terrorist activities. Hillary's M/B pal, Gehad al Haddad, a Clinton Foundation employee, once charged, is now sitting in an Egyptian jail (reported by H/T Western Journalism).
==============================================
PRES TRUMP'S PET PEEVE The US incursion into Iraq got us not a barrel of oil.....just rivers of young blood spilled on its decrepit soil, and trillions of US treasure still being spent.
Here's a job for President al Sisi---should he choose to accept it------ISIS controls untold oil wealth in Iraq and Syria. Neocon godfather--Richard Perle---is reportedly starting his own oil company in Iraq----according to the WSJ.
Did ISIS strike a deal w/ Perle?
I’m tired just trying to keep up with his “done deals”.
NO ..!!!!
El Sisi .. is cut from different cloth [he supports Israel - Assad does not].
Perle’s working with the Kurds who oppose ISIS.
Assad will.
Sisi ? Didn’t they have a bone to pick with HRC and the MB ?
Thanks LIz. Those were the little facts I had on the tip on my brain.
The Egyptians were suppose to have some documents that would put O and H in jail. World court?
This is huge since al sisi is American educated and a really smart guy. He hates the MB. They took over the country for a year with zeros help.,p>
Now the tables are turned and al sisi has a real American president he can count on.Look for good things to happen,Egypt is a leading country in the region with 80 million people.
Egypt is a leading country in the region with 80 million people.
Interesting thing about Egypt in Biblical prophecy.....
Isaiah 19:1 An oracle concerning Egypt.
Behold, the Lord is riding on a swift cloud
and comes to Egypt;
and the idols of Egypt will tremble at his presence,
and the heart of the Egyptians will melt within them.
Isaiah 19:16-25 In that day the Egyptians will be like women, and tremble with fear before the hand that the Lord of hosts shakes over them. 17 And the land of Judah will become a terror to the Egyptians. Everyone to whom it is mentioned will fear because of the purpose that the Lord of hosts has purposed against them.
18 In that day there will be five cities in the land of Egypt that speak the language of Canaan and swear allegiance to the Lord of hosts. One of these will be called the City of Destruction.
19 In that day there will be an altar to the Lord in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a pillar to the Lord at its border. 20 It will be a sign and a witness to the Lord of hosts in the land of Egypt. When they cry to the Lord because of oppressors, he will send them a savior and defender, and deliver them. 21 And the Lord will make himself known to the Egyptians, and the Egyptians will know the Lord in that day and worship with sacrifice and offering, and they will make vows to the Lord and perform them. 22 And the Lord will strike Egypt, striking and healing, and they will return to the Lord, and he will listen to their pleas for mercy and heal them.
23 In that day there will be a highway from Egypt to Assyria, and Assyria will come into Egypt, and Egypt into Assyria, and the Egyptians will worship with the Assyrians.
24 In that day Israel will be the third with Egypt and Assyria, a blessing in the midst of the earth, 25 whom the Lord of hosts has blessed, saying, “Blessed be Egypt my people, and Assyria the work of my hands, and Israel my inheritance.”
HOORAY al-Sisi
HOORAY Trump
Perhaps this already happened in the 4th century when Egypt WAS the center of Christianity abd Iraq, Ctesiphon as the center of Judaism
Maybe.
But like all prophecy, I think there’s more than one fulfillment.
Besides, Egypt isn’t following Christ now so I think it needs to be fulfilled yet. Same with Assyria
How do you know that ..??
