Bite your tongue...never wish for that..
I remember reading a few years ago that quite a few Egyptian military officers were actually educated and trained (they are not the same thing) in the U.S.
My son trained some of them, I believe.
We can only hope that some of the concepts of active-duty military (as opposed to retirees who always show up in the media) separating their jobs as much as possible from the politics while trying to support the good of the country rubbed off on those Egyptian officers.
Hope springs eternal.
