[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My family is Egyptian and I agree with Obama.  Egypt's not an ally.  It's not an enemy.  Nobody is sure which direction the relationship will head.   Why put a name to it if there is none?  [/quote]

I have friends who are Egyptian so I am familiar with what is going on. It is funny, actually it's very sad how so many Americans like the OP are so incredibly ignorant and just talk out their ass. Obama's phone call  scared the crap out of Morsey and forced him to make a statement and protect the embassy, which was big deal. Albeit, Morsey should have done it on his own. Morsey is very new and inexperienced and learned soon enough who he is dealing with. They just had a bunch of American companies in Egypt for business development. Morsey doesn't want to prevent that from happening. Egypt is strategic but they need us just as much. I think the Egyptian military which is backed by the U.S. wanted Morsey to look bad and they did not protect the embassy for that reason. It is a lot more complicated than the OP or Mittens realize, which is why Romney looks stupid and went back to talking about the economy. Thus, it has not yet been determined whether they are an ally or enemy.

And the statement put out by the Egyptian embassy was meant to contain and yes placate in an attempt to prevent further unrest. That has nothing to do with foreign policy. When a gun is pointed to your head you say what you have to.  The instability in the middle east can not be controlled by the U.S. that is ridiculous! If anything, this started with Bush's Bullshit Iraq war, which accomplished nothing. Personally, I don't believe every nation is capable of having a democracy. But, that is another topic.[/quote]
