Disgusting misuse of our tax dollars.

(Reuters) – U.S. President Barack Obama plans to accelerate the pace of American aid to Egypt, a top State Department official said on Wednesday, as the most populous Arab nation reaches a critical stage in its uncertain transition away from autocratic rule.

Undersecretary of State Robert Hormats, part of a U.S. delegation that held unprecedented talks last week with Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood, said Washington wanted to provide “more immediate benefits” to Egyptians, who earlier this month conducted their first democratic elections in decades.

“During this period, we want to be as supportive as we can. This is an historic moment. Egypt’s a country of enormous importance,” Hormats said.

Under the plan, some non-urgent U.S. aid slated for other countries – he did not name them – would be redirected to Egypt. And funding in the pipeline for long-term programs in Egypt would be shifted to quick-impact projects, he said.

he can all it the Dollars for Demolition Program.

Demolition of the Copts, demolition of Egytp’s antiquities, demolition of Egyptian human rights (such as they are in any Muslim land) and demolition of Israel.

Obama is a bastard - pure and simple. An evil, anti-American bastard.

Obama must be concerned about losing and is transferring as much money to them as possible, before he has to go find a new career.

John Kerry was in Egypt last month cuddling up to the Muslim Brotherhood and calling for the IMF to pump money in to prop them up.
