As Predicted, CIA-Sponsored Muslim Bros. Becomes Enemy
The Daily Bell - As Predicted, CIA-Sponsored Muslim Bros. Becomes Enemy: "Egypt's cold shoulder ... A sudden new wave of anti-Americanism is thriving in Cairo ... As 16 U.S. citizens await trial in Egypt for accepting foreign financing to promote democracy, for the first time in more than 30 years there is a serious debate in Washington about whether to end the $1.3-billion annual military assistance to Cairo. There's no debate in Egypt, however. More than 70% of Egyptians, according to a recent Gallup poll, no longer want U.S. funding. Facing extreme challenges at home and in need of distractions, anti-Americanism has become Cairo's preferred populist recourse. Although a solution might be found for this particular controversy — with or without U.S. foreign assistance — this bilateral dynamic assures that the next crisis is not far off. – Los Angeles Times"
