Obama Sending US Troops To Egypt To Stop Anti-Muslim Brotherhood Riots

14 Comments

While Egyptian pro-democracy activists are angry over a U.S. envoy’s comments criticizing anti-Muslim Brotherhood protestors, Obama is planning on deploying US troops to help crush freedom seekers in Egypt.

Philo-jihadist Barack Obama means to save the Islamic supremacist savages of the Muslim Brotherhood at all cost. And the left is still completely and utterly wrong on Egypt, but those snakes are incapable of a mea culpa.

Obama is the most dangerous man to occupy the Oval office as outlined in my 2010 book, The Post-American Presidency: The Obama Administration’s War on America.

Obama sending U.S. soldiers to Egypt to put down anti-Muslim Brotherhood riots Jihadwatch, July 21, 2013

As demonstrations and revolts swept the Muslim world during Obama’s first term, he was enthusiastic. He had encouraging words for the “Arab Spring” demonstrators in Egypt and Tunisia, and even gave military assistance to their Libyan counterparts. During the third and last debate of the 2012 presidential campaign, Mitt Romney and Obama sparred over which could express support for the Syrian rebels (who are dominated by Islamic jihadists) more strongly, and as Obama’s second term began, his administration was inching ever closer to military aid for those rebels. Yet there have now been three large-scale demonstrations in Muslim countries that Obama did not support – and those three exceptions are extraordinarily revealing about his disposition, as well as his policy, toward Islam.

The three pro-democracy revolts that Obama refused to support were arguably the only two that were genuinely worthy of the pro-democracy label: the demonstrations against the Islamic regime in Iran in 2009, the anti-Muslim Brotherhood demonstrations in Egypt in winter 2013, and the pro-secularism demonstrations in Turkey in recent weeks. There is a common thread between these three that distinguishes them from all the others: in Egypt in late 2012 and early 2013, as well as in Iran in 2009, the demonstrators were protesting against Islamic states; in Turkey, they were protesting against the Erdogan regime that is working hard now to establish an Islamic state. All the other demonstrations were not against pro-Sharia forces, but were led by pro-Sharia forces, and led to the establishment of Islamic states. To be sure, the Iranian demonstrators in 2009 contained many pro-Sharia elements that simply objected to the way the Islamic Republic was enforcing Sharia, but they also included many who wanted to reestablish the relatively secular society that prevailed under the last Shah. Whether the Sharia or the democratic forces would have won out in the end is a question that will never be answered – in no small part thanks to Barack Obama.

In every case Barack Obama has been consistent: in response to the demonstrations and uprisings in the Islamic world, he has without exception acted in the service of Islamic supremacist, pro-Sharia regimes. For whatever complex of personal affinity and political calculation, he has steered the United States, in the words of the Egyptian newspaper Rose el-Youssef, “from a position hostile to Islamic groups and organizations in the world to the largest and most important supporter of the Muslim Brotherhood.” Maybe he thinks, as Daniel Greenfield has posited, that he can end jihad terror against the West by allowing Muslim states to achieve their heart’s desire: reestablishment of the caliphate. In any case, in one of the most shameful episodes of his entire shameful tenure, now American troops will be deployed in service of the Muslim Brotherhood, to put down pro-democracy protestors in Egypt.

“Riot Control Training,” from KCENTV.com, June 20 (thanks to Maxwell):

(KCEN) — A group of soldiers are preparing for their deployment to Egypt with riot training on post.

They’re planning ahead for violent protests or riots and the possibility of protecting the country’s border with Israel.

Soldiers encountered Molotov cocktails and other dangerous items in the training.

Lt. Matthew Wilkinson says, “Just what I’ve seen over the course of the past week than we were a week ago.”

PFC Perez Alexander says, “We want to be as professional as possible… Know what we’re doing.”

They wrap up training today before preparing to ship out in the near future.

Muslim Brotherhood with show of force in Egypt's streets

Rick Moran

They came from many parts of Egypt, most of them bused to the rally in support of Islamist President Morsi, and declared their allegiance to the president and Sharia law.

AFP:

Tens of thousands of Egyptian Islamists gathered for a show of strength in Cairo on Friday ahead of planned opposition protests against President Mohamed Morsi, highlighting the tense political divide in the Arab world's most populous state.

Carrying Egyptian flags and portraits of the president, they flooded into the large square outside the Rabaa al-Adawiya mosque in the Nasr City neighbourhood and into the surrounding avenues.

Islamist groups led by the powerful Muslim Brotherhood from which Morsi hails, had called for the rally ahead of planned June 30 protests to demand an early presidential election.
Morsi has been in office for just one year.

Inside the mosque, worshippers finished their prayers and broke out into chants of "Morsi is a president for all Egyptians" before joining the crowds on the streets.

The turnout, they said, was proof that Morsi enjoyed the support of the Egyptian people.

"We are here in such huge numbers so that the secularists don't think we are a minority... We are capable of protecting legitimacy and Sharia (Islamic law)," said Hamida Bakkout, 43, holding a picture of Morsi.

Omar Mostafa, 18, who had come from the Nile Delta province of Beheira, said "this is a message that there are many of us behind the president. We don't care about the mobilisation of the opposition."

Many supporters had been bussed in to Cairo for the event, AFP reporters said.

The Islamists accuse the opposition of being remnants of the regime of ousted president Hosni Mubarak and of seeking to sow chaos.

"Democratically elected presidents are never removed through protests," Muslim Brotherhood spokesman Gehad al-Haddad said.

A campaign dubbed Tamarod (rebellion in Arabic) first called for the anti-Morsi rally to coincide with the first anniversary of his becoming president.

Egypt is, quite literally, falling apart. It's economy cannot survive without massive foreign investment. And that's just to keep the people from starving to death. Any thought of economic reform by Morsi cannot be realized because, simply, there's no economy to speak of.

The opposition is kidding itself if it really believes they can get the Brotherhood to call for an early presidential election. They've already postponed the parliamentary elections. Why would they move up elections for president?

The Muslim Brortherhood has the power and they're not going to give it up without a fight.
