CAIRO (Reuters) - President Barack Obama has invited Egypt's newly elected Islamist president, Mohamed Mursi, to visit the United States in September, an Egyptian official said on Sunday, reflecting the new ties Washington is cultivating with the region's Islamists.
Washington, long wary of Islamists and an ally of ousted President Hosni Mubarak, shifted policy last year to open formal contacts with the Muslim Brotherhood, the group behind Mursi's win. Mursi formally resigned from the group after his victory.
Mursi's success at the polls mirrors the rising influence of Islamists in countries across the Middle East and North Africa in the wake of revolts and protests against autocratic rulers who have led the region for decades.
"President Obama extended an invitation to President Mursi to visit the United States when he attends the U.N. General Assembly in September," Egyptian aide Yasser Ali said after Mursi met U.S. Deputy Secretary of State William Burns in Cairo.

He invites a radical islamist leader at first opportunity, yet has not made a state visit to Israel.
What’s sad is a there are many of our fellow countrymen who fail to wake up.
Thanks Free ThinkerNY.
Maybe he will invite the Blind Sheik to the meeting as well.
Does Egypt have an idea how the US can increase jobs???

“President Barack Obama has invited Egypt’s newly elected Islamist president, Mohamed Mursi, to visit the United States in September”
Perfect!! September,,, right after Romneys Israeli trip in August. Obastard is really really not that bright.
Yes...I know someone who voted for Obomba...and said...”well, at least he is a friend of Israel.” Haven’t talked to her since, and wonder HOW she FEELS now...
I would assume the kids vote Democrat via absentee in California every two years.
Romney has to go to Israel during the time Achmed the Tentmaker is in DC!
TOSS THE Czar/Tsar/Caesar SALADIN in 2012
It will be “prayer rug” night at the WH. It’s gonna be an explosive meeting.
I just wonder why the majority of the Jews still support THE ONE? Are they all that self-destructive? I think it would be great if Romney has his meeting with Netanyahu at the same time... It might be enlightening for many `liberal` Jews to see who the REAL Fascists are... Republicans or Democrats...
Which cabinet post will he be asked to fill?
You think this is bad... wait until he gets his second term. He will answer to no one and do whatever he likes. And he has some real whoppers up his sleeve. There are enough deceived/dumb down people in the US that would gladly vote for him again. He prances around like an angel of light and just underneath that empty suit lies a most heinous agenda. He may just be our judgement.
he wants to compare prayer rugs

This needs to be played up big-time in pro-Romney ads in the heavily populated Jewish communities in Florida. There are a lot of Jews in NY, but forget NY; it’s a lost cause. Go for the Jews in FL. I’m not sure what other states have heavy, Jewish populations, that would make it worthwhile to run ads there.
