Obama Sends McCain And Graham To Egypt To Reach Out To Muslim Brotherhood, Further Enraging Egyptians
In the eyes of tens of millions of Egyptians, Senators John McCain’s and Lindsey Graham’s recent words and deeds in Egypt — which have the “blessing” of President Obama — have unequivocally proven that U.S. leadership is aligning with the Muslim Brotherhood.
Egyptian media is awash with stories of the growing anger regarding this policy.
A top advisor to Egypt’s Interim President Adly Mansour formally accused McCain of distorting facts to the benefit of the Brotherhood. He dismissed McCain’s recent remarks as “irrational” and “moronic.”Ahmed al-Zind, head of the Egyptian Judge Club, has called for the arrest and trial of McCain for “trying to destroy Egypt.”
The leader of the youth movement Tamarod (meaning “Rebellion,” against the Brotherhood), which played a major role in mobilizing the June 30 revolution, said: “We reject John McCain and call on the international community to let the [Egyptian] people decide their own fate.”
Secular political commentator Ahmed Musa asserted:
These two men have made more shameless demands than the Brotherhood themselves would dare.
[McCain] is not a man elected by the American people to speak on their behalf; today, he speaks on behalf of an armed terrorist organization — the Muslim Brotherhood. … We had expected [better] from these two men who came to speak with the tongue of the Brotherhood’s leadership, as if they had been recruited as two new leaders of the Brotherhood, which killed, destroyed, and burned in al-Muqattam, and now in Rab‘a al-Adawiya [the main Brotherhood militant camp].
The only thing missing is to see them in Rab‘a, surrounded by armed groups, and in their midst Muhammad Badie [supreme leader of the Brotherhood] and [U.S. Ambassador] Anne Patterson. That’s all that’s missing! Here comes Brother McCain today saying that we must “release the [Brotherhood] prisoners”.
Are you not aware that these people are accused of murder? Are you not aware that hundreds of Egyptians have been killed at the hands of the Brotherhood, Morsi, Shatter, Qatatni, Badie, Baltagi — have you forgotten? Did you not read the report on what happened? Or did you just blindly accept your ambassador’s words that it was a coup, that 33 million people did not go out?

My favorite comment from the article:
Dear Egyptian people, if any of you are reading these blogs and comments:
Not only do American establishment officials want to meddle in the affairs of the Egyptian people, they also want to, and are, meddling in the affairs of the American people. We did not elect them to do either. And to compound the injury, our current admnistration (Obama), appears to be allowing the Muslim Brotherhood to interfere in American politics and policies.
Also, American officials seem to have a hard time understanding what a "coup" is -- just ask the Honduran people.
We wish we could get one-third of our own population out onto the streets like you did with yours, but our people are too busy going to the mall and watching reality shows populated by the worst kinds of people. What can I say?
Wow. That is a good comment.
Translated, our people elected Honey Boo Boo to be President.
Yep, that's about it.
I must tell you these Middle Eastern people are disappointing to me. We keep sending them McCain and Graham, they keep sending them back.
*Sigh!*
AWESOME COMMENT, Mustang.
I must agree with you Mustang.
Too bad they didn't keep Obama back when. He would fit in so well over there.
McCain is way past retirement, or deep into musloids' pockets. His defense of Abedin was shameless, and his performance in Egypt cannot be described as other than total support of the MB. There are only two possibilities: dementia has been progressively setting in, or he is a traitor.
