Why Is Obama Silent Over Massive State-Sponsored Referendum Fraud in Egypt?
This guest contribution comes from Tarek Ragheb, an Egyptian-American, senior U.S. aerospace advisor, former U.S. military officer, diplomat and investor who lives in Egypt.

One day after the Egyptian constitutional referendum, Abdul Rahim Ali, a 56 year old political researcher and an authority on the history of the Muslim Brotherhood, is besides himself over the US’s apparent complicity through its silence on both the repressive constitution and the December 15 rigged referendum to adopt this new Egyptian Constitution.
Although many pro political Islam and Morsi supporters in Egypt are pushing for a yes vote to adopt a deeply flawed and hurriedly prepared constitution claiming its the light at the end of the tunnel, Mr. Ali, a pro democracy activist, is sternly warning the United States that this light will unfortunately prove to be the head on freight train.
For all the Obama talk of democracy, freedom and transparency from an administration claiming the moral high ground, the complicit silence over the massive state sponsored referendum fraud by the Muslim Brotherhood is not only puzzling to Egyptian pro democracy activists, its maddening to the likes of Mr. Ali.
Today’s headlines for Masry El Youm, the leading non government owned Egyptian daily newspaper, screamed FRAUD CAUGHT on TAPE! Through excellent investigative and on the scene reporting, the daily uncovered documented countless cases of both sophisticated and blatant breaches where the YES vote was inflated and the NO vote was repressed. With this background Mr. Ali wonders out loud about where is Washington’s high moral ground now?
The loss of Iran under the Carter Administration in 1979 appears to have left no residual lessons for the Obama administration. Mr. Ali warns that with such constitution taking shape that flies in the face of the most fundamental American values of freedom and respect for human, women and children rights, the Obama administration through its silence is bound to repeat the loss of Iran and dispatching Egypt to repressive religious, and eventually anti-US rule for many years to come.

Posted on December 20, 2012 at 11:06amWhy is Obama silent on Benghazi, Fast & Furious,350 murders in Chicago black on black, Chicago climate Exchange fiasco, Nobel Peace prize debacle, Harvard Law review fraud, Barrack and Michel’s law license rejection, his friendship with many corrupt friends, his Marxist attachments, Obama’s drug use , his true birth site, his true plans to destroy America to please his dead father who hated-neocolonialism, …..both of us could continue the list but you get the picture. Obama is a fraud and always will be. He is the black Bill Clinton a nice smile a “I feel your pain” plea and a knife in your back.

Posted on December 19, 2012 at 10:21amMr. Ali should know why Obama is not speaking out….his re-election was also riddled with fraud. Therefore his agenda along with the Muslim brotherhood is moving “FORWARD”!

Posted on December 18, 2012 at 3:09pmI wish the people of Egypt would wake up and realize that Obama NEVER intended to help them… He just knew there was a person who the M.B. wanted to replace, and he found the best way to help instill the M.B. in Egypt was to “lend a hand”…. SO he did… and now that the M.B. is in control… Mission accomplished… Why would he intervene any longer, Obama got what he wanted… Another Muslim Brotherhood stronghold…
That was the intent all along… He didn’t give a rats @ss about the PEOPLE of Egypt… Just helping his buddies, the Muslim Brotherhood…
The “best” is yet to come…

Posted on December 18, 2012 at 12:02pmI think Mrs Clinton as Sec. of State misunderstands that her job is to promote issues that benefit this Country not to act as its ad person. She and her boss obama fell in love with the very idea of the Arab Spring without taking into consideration any historical facts of their never being a Democracy that can survive when up against Sharia. I’m sorry but they come across as rank amateurs wanting to see things as they what them to be, instead of seeing things as they are.

Posted on December 18, 2012 at 4:19amSince this Author lives in Egypt and NOT IN THE USA, I’ll give him a PASS – sort of, but not really – THAT MAYBE he doesn’t KNOW how much fraud Odrama Queen committed in the USA by Nov 6, 2012, and also doesn’t know how much his Sock Puppet Master Soros paid into the Egyptian Fraud Voting, or how much Odrama Queen siphoned off the American Taxpayers to pay for Vote Fraud and THUGS in the Middle East to help influence the Middle East “elections” – I heard he even sent the AFL-CIO over there to “help them out”.
I still don’t understand how this Author doesn’t KNOW what all and how much Odrama Queen has been doing “for them”.

Posted on December 18, 2012 at 3:13pmKinda a longer more detailed post of what I was implying… Obama got what he wanted… An egypt ruled by the Muslim Brotherhood (his buddies), so since he got what he wanted, why would he intervene any further….??
I have some contacts all over the world because of my job, and I am told that nearly EVERY country I am in contact with (besides Japan who is souring on him) reports only positive stories about Obama, and always try to make him seem like the good guy he isn’t…
Which is why people around the world are shocked at this… They all think Obama is something he isn’t….. Kinda like the rest of our country was in ’08, when the idiots elected him…

Because that’s what every despot, dictator, fascist, and marxist does to gain absolute power and control.
Worse than that, it’s idiots like us that spend our time blogging rather than organizing and acting against this.
It’s over folks! Time to pack up our ‘bug-out bags” and head for the hills.

Posted on December 17, 2012 at 6:42pmThe sooner people can wrap their head around the idea that we have a musslim, crooked, antiamerican president. The sooner we can look at ways to impeach his a$$. What in his past, says anything different than that? Do you really believe he has changed and is looking out for this country? It will be shocking what we find out after he is out of office!!!! Especially with all the insiders looking to make a buck off a book.BTW i did NOT see a TEAR in his eyes when he was talking about that shooting,. maybe if they were musslim, just saying. All you have to do is look where this man worshiped for twenty years, that alone answers alot of questions to anybody with brain.

Posted on December 17, 2012 at 6:07pmMr. Ali – wake up. (“YES vote was inflated and the NO vote was repressed”). Sounds familiar to a US run election and exactly what Union thugs did for Obama. Our third world election was just like your third world election. Welcome to Amerika.

Posted on December 17, 2012 at 5:53pmObama is a muslim and supports their radical agenda. The Muslim Brotherhood is is just an extension of Obama’s true political ideology. When has Obama ever not supported JIHAD or the muslim agenda?

Posted on December 17, 2012 at 5:45pmGood luck if you expect the current US administration to take the high moral ground. It won’t happen. Besides, President Hussein has a crisis here in the US that he must exploit immediately to further push his tyranny onto the people of the US.
