Senator: Obama Administration Secretly Suspended Military Aid to Egypt
...
The office of Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-VT), the head of the Appropriations State and Foreign Operations Subcommittee, told The Daily Beast on Monday that military aid to Egypt has been temporarily cut off.
[Senator Leahys] understanding is that aid to the Egyptian military has been halted, as required by law, said David Carle, a spokesman for Leahy.
The administrations public message is that $585 million of promised aid to the Egyptian military in fiscal 2013 is not officially on hold, as technically it is not due until Sept. 30, the end of the fiscal year, and no final decisions have been made.
After sequestration withholding, approximately $585 million remains unobligated. So, that is the amount that is unobligated, State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said Monday. But it would be inaccurate to say that a policy decision has been made with respect to the remaining assistance funding.
But two administration officials told The Daily Beast that administration lawyers decided it was best to observe the law restricting military aid on a temporary basis, as if there had been a coup designation, while at the same time deciding that the law did not require a public announcement on whether a coup took place.
The decision was were going to avoid saying it was a coup, but to stay on the safe side of the law, we are going to act as if the designation has been made for now, said one administration official. By not announcing the decision, it gives the administration the flexibility to reverse it.

"Egypt playing hardball with Obama"!
The former Chancellor of the Constitutional Court of Egypt and current adviser.." TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE".....
The former Chancellor of the Constitutional Court of Egypt and current adviser, Tahani Al-Jebali stated that the reason the United States cannot fight the international organization of the Muslim Brotherhood is because...." the brother of U.S. President Barack Obama is the architect of the investments for the international organization of the Muslim Brotherhood".
....Obamas brother is a major operative with the Muslim Brotherhood in that.... 'He is the 'conduit for funneling monies for the organization'.
Jebali stated she would like
to inform the American people that their presidents brother Obama is one of the architects of the major investments of the international organization of the Muslim Brotherhood.
She added
We will carry out the law and the Americans will not stop us. We need to open the files and begin court sessions. The Obama administration cannot stop us; they know that they supported terrorism. We will open the files so these nations are exposed, to show how they collaborated with them [the terrorists]. It is for this reason why the American administration fights us.
Jebali also appeared on Egyptian television to explain how important this news is to Americans who are concerned about their Presidents actions, saying it is a gift to the American people, implying there is much more to come......

Israel behind Egypt coup Turkish PM
Turkish Prime Minister Recep Erdogan claims Ankara has proof Israel was behind the July 3 military “coup” that toppled Egyptian president Mohamed Morsi, Hurriyet daily reports.
Erdogan said the West was beginning to redefine democracy as a process that is not solely determined at the ballot box, although the poll represents the peoples will.
This is what has been implemented in Egypt. Who is behind this? Israel. We have evidence, the prime minister said during a meeting with provincial chairs of his ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP).
Erdogan spoke of a meeting between Turkeys justice minister and a Jewish intellectual in France before Egypts 2011 elections.
The Muslim Brotherhood will not be in power even if they win the elections. Because democracy is not the ballot box: This is what he [the intellectual] said at that time, the Turkish PM continued.
Erdogan did not clarify what connection the unidentified intellectual had to the Israeli government or how his alleged opinion proved Israel played any part in the recent ouster of Morsi.

Egypt: Are foreign journalists lying?
We examine the accusations of bias and lack of objectivity against international media over coverage of recent events.
...
“There have been reports in the western media in recent weeks on the attack on the churches, and there has been [a] mention in the last few days of acts of violence apparently among the protesters.
“But it is such an overwhelming story that the western media is covering, when you have hundreds of dead, when you have mass protests, when you have scenes [like those] inside the Fateh mosque in Cairo, the story is quite clear. There has been an exaggerated and overwhelming use of force by the government, and no amount of lecturing by press officials, government officials, can cover up the fact.”

by Josh Rogin Aug 19, 2013 10:04 PM EDT
Secretary of State John Kerry has determined that the four State Department officials placed on administrative leave by Hillary Clinton after the terrorist attack on the U.S. mission in Benghazi do not deserve any formal disciplinary action and has asked them to come back to work at the State Department starting Tuesday.
