Why would anyone be surprised?
Supporting Islamists has been common US policy since the 1950s and nothing has changed.
Don’t be fooled by all this “war on terror” nonsense - Islamists have long been useful allies of the West against Communists, secularists, nationalists, Shiites, Iran, etc.
In Egypt we’re backing them so as to hedge our bets on whichever side eventually emerges. In Syria we’re doing a full-on repeat of the 1980s Afghan disaster, this time to weaken Iran. It’ll blow up in our face just as the previous Afghan policy did, guaranteed.
If this jihadi support means that terrorism is strengthened and an airliner plows into a skyscraper then that’s fine - the odd terror attack is viewed by our leaders as being the “cost of doing business,” like the risk of a car accident when you’re out for a drive.
You’re supposed to suck it up, wave the flag, and not ask questions when the same policies are enacted again and again.
U.S. ambassador Anne Patterson demanded
__________________________________________
Wasnt it Anne Patterson who claimed everything was hunky dory in the Middle East, the same day that our Amb was being raped and murdered in Libya ???
What was that about the world loving the US more now that Obama is elected...what a fail.
LOL. Like BO has any cred with the Egyptian government.
No longer a world superpower, we have now resorted to being a world superthug.
Thanks, zero.
Go for it, Zero. Tell the rest of the planet to get on your megaturd wagon.
(You tell I am ticked...no?)
crazy colonialist Obama
Is that Obama with a beard?
Didn’t Obama have a speech where He Stated : no nation has the right to interfere in the affairs of another Nation. Something like that, I do not like to quote Odumb@$$.
I hope this story is false, because it is beyond the stupidest thing I could imagine an ambassador doing.
Let’s see now. Which homosexual is now the US ambassador to Egypt?
U.S. ambassador Anne Patterson demanded that Egyptian General Sisi release all Muslim Brotherhood members currently being held for questioning: “And when Sisi rejected this order, the American ambassador began threatening him that Egypt will turn into another Syria and live through a civil war, to which Sisi responded violently: ‘Neither you nor your country can overcome Egypt and its people.’”
This woman is an enemy to Egypt and to the United States. She's the one who foisted the "youtube video" lie there, and the people in Egypt have an extreme dislike for her.
Those people know what is going on and our own press will not reveal the level of antipathy the people in Egypt who took back their own country from the Obama inspired and backed Arab Hell, have for Obama and his ambassador.
And if that woman thinks she can win in a test of wills against General Abdel-Fattah al-Sisi...she is indeed an idiot living in a fantasy.
I wonder if that carries the same amount of weight as a 911 operator telling you to go back to your car?
When will the denial stop? Obama is a muslim, who hates the US.
Sounds like our president is imitating Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson!
Get a life O’Bummer.
Egyptian tells Obama to stick in 47 seconds in he goes to English">
Muslim Rage Boy is near!
(Credit to Blazing Saddles)
They are TOTALLY going to listen to her.
Funny that Obama and Patterson are working against Mohamed ElBaradei.
He’s the IAEA head who did everything he could to aid Iran’s nuke quest. But he’s still better than the Islamists.
