President Obama has extended an invitation to Mohammed Mursi,the newly elected president of Egypt, to visit the White House when he comes to the United States in September. Despite reports that Mursi left his membership in the Muslim Brotherhood after being elected president, the invite has raised eyebrows as the United States was an ally of Mursi’s predecessor, the ousted Hosni Mubarak, and has concerns in regard to Islamists. Mursi was in the news Sunday after ordering the Islamist-led parliament, that was dissolved by the military generals, to reconvene until a new one was elected.
“Real News” was joined Monday by Eric Trager, a frequent guest of the show who has just penned an op-ed in Foreign Affairs titled “The Muslim Brotherhood’s Long Game” where he predicts that given the military’s control over Egypt despite the Muslim Brotherhood controlling parliament and the presidency, the ruling party will aim for a calm short run in power to retain more substantial authority down the road. The panel discussed the anxious post-election rhetoric between the military and Muslim Brotherhood, President Obama’s diplomacy with the Egyptian leader, and how long peace can be maintained and civil war avoided:

Posted on July 12, 2012 at 3:23pmMy guess is that Wm. Ayers’ political god-child will not be deliberately rude to a Muslim (Brother) as he has been to Western leaders and will certainly NOT be shoved out the back door where they keep all that trash (did you see the mounds of garbage from this bunch) as they did with the Dalai Lama.
Report Post »On a positive note? This has to peel off more jewish-american votes away from the dem party. He hasn’t bothered to visit Israel. As a matter of fact, Romney will turn out to visit Israel before Obama.

Posted on July 10, 2012 at 11:10pmBirds of a feather flock together. Mursi, Obama, Farrakahn…all the same. Once a muslim always a muslim unless you don’t want to die. Not my rule! Its just a facet of membership in the Islamic club. Why do I say Obama is muslim…his father was muslim, he was raised muslim till he began role playing.

Posted on July 10, 2012 at 12:12amGrow up, loonies. This guy is going to be the President of Egypt whether we like it or not. Just because the President is meeting with the guy doesn’t mean that he’s any happier about the way the election turned out than you are, but we don’t get to pick the president of Egypt. The President meets with heads of other countries no matter who they are or how they ended up running their country. That’s part of the job.

Report Post »Our brilliant POTUS was head cheerleader for ousting Mubarak. If he doesn’t like the outcome, maybe he should be a bit more careful about what he wishes for.

Posted on July 10, 2012 at 11:07amMr. Obama was very ambivalent and non-commital about the Egyptian revolt until it became clear that President Mubarek had lost the support of the army. That meant that there would be a new government, and only then did he make any clear statement of support for the rebels.

Posted on July 9, 2012 at 9:54pmI wonder if were selling them more weapons? And people wonder why I think obama is the antichrist? Its not bad enough Israel is now surrounded by its enemies, but how many think obama will sell weapons to them, or give them weapons? Really people do you see whats taking place here? Keep in mind the stuff we don’t hear about, thats kept hush hush! For all we know obama and holder are secretly handing over our military equipment, on the down low! Would it be possible that this could be kept secret? Like running it through our military and stashing it in Egypt? For them to use against Israel? Sneaky, Sneaky, Sneaky! Our Liar and Chief is Arming Terrorists for the Destruction of Israel!
