Lets say a would-be Egyptian dictator tosses the head of the military, supports a terrorist assault on Israel, and threatens to send tanks into the streets to fight any opposition. Lets also say youre the President of the United States. Would you: (a) threaten to cut off aid; (b) actually cut off aid; (c) send 20 F-16s to Egypt?
If youre Barack Obama, your clear answer is C. Beginning January 22, the first portions of Americas $1 billion foreign aid grant to Egypt hits the ground in Cairo four F-16 jets. The last time the United States greenlit aid to Egypt was 2010, when deposed authoritarian Hosni Mubarak was in power. House Committee on Foreign Affairs Chair Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-FL) said, The Obama administration wants to simply throw money at an Egyptian government that the president cannot even clearly state is an ally of the United States.

But with Sequestration coming, the F-16 Falcons will only be refueled as far as Italy.
More provocation towards the Israelis.
Geeze. I shouldn’t be surprised, yet somehow I am. I guess anything the Brotherhood wants, the Brotherhood gets. Their only mistake is in thinking so small. I’m sure if they asked for some nukes, the Obama Administration would be glad to help. After all, Obama wants to disarm us, so that fits right in with that goal.
And, of course, the MSM would sit on the sidelines and cheer.
After Morsi establishes the “United Islamic Republic” along with Syria and Libya, those F-16s known as the “Obama Wing” will do a flyover at the founding ceremonies.
Neocons rejoice.
The US is basically AT WAR with Israel, albeit thru a proxy.
It’s as clear as day.
I recently watched Schindler’s List, and a lump came to my throat with the clear realization it’s happening again... and by my “home” country no less...
Whats-his-name has obama over a barrel, and obama knows it. All he has to do is say to obama,,,”you see this peace treaty with Israel in my left hand and a match in my right hand? Give me what I demand or I torch the treaty.”
Even after 4 years of experience, foreign affairs are way above obamas pay grade.
Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood government is set to receive more tanks and fighter jets from the U.S.
Why didn’t dictator Morsi ask Hussein to bomb Israel too? /s
When I first glanced at your post I thought it said “...foreign affairs are way above Obama’s gay parade.”
The eyes are fading but the mind is still sharp!
“The US is basically AT WAR with Israel, albeit thru a proxy.

Correct, in so far as it goes. However...
1. Americans are armed, Jews in the Third Reich were not.
2. American Jews were originators of collectivism via communism and socialism in Europe.
3. In America, Jews were both generals and troops in the advance of communism through the schools and agencies, the goonions, media, Hollyweird, ad nausseam.
When American blacks, La Raza nutters, Muslims and other assorted sordid treasonous do start widespreasd violence, I suspect history will repeat itself and the cry “Kill the Jews” will start in the black ghettos of the Big Sh*tty areas.
If there is a G*d, those who did so much damage to America because they willfully confused the Mosaic call for a just society with the commie cry for “Social Justice” may have much to justify.
I hear rumors the Upper Office has little patience with rationalizations.
Auntie Hilly’s deal with Morsi.
Let’s stop arming our potential enemies. I don’t care what these newbie no-diplomatic experience President and Secretary of State say. Their current track record sucks. You would not put money on them in a harmless football game. Billions are at stake, now.
These include 200 M1A1 Abrams battle tanks...
Figures. We make the best battle tank in the world and then give it to anyone who wants it.
They would never make it back from their first sortie against the Israelis.
Unless they are piloted by Americans.
With Obama on the throne that’s not too far fetched.
There are lots of USAF F-16’s available from the deactivated Sqn’s here in the US. Might as well put them to use somewhere.
