Israel And Egypt: We Are Already Seeing The Failed Obama Foreign Policy In Action

More than 100,000 gather to protest against a decree issued by Muslim Brotherhood President Morsi granting himself sweeping powers.

So let's get this straight. When Tahrir square is filled to protest pro-Western Mubarak, we have no choice but to call for him to step down. But when Tahrir square is filled to protest Islamist Morsi, we have no choice but to be silent. We must immensely pressure Bibi, but we must respond with deafening silence to Morsi. Well, not actually silence, we heap lavish praise on Morsi as a grand peace-maker immediately prior to his power-grab. Hillary Clinton is rushed to Jerusalem only days into Israel combating Islamist terror, but not rushed to Cairo when Morsi seeks to strengthen the power of Islamic radicalism. I guess her appearances in Cairo are only to lead international songs of praise for Morsi. Keep the military aid flowing!

This is exactly the kind of foreign policy Obama opponents were worried about. We just did not know we would, unfortunately, see ourselves proven correct so soon after the election.

And it is not as if Muslim Brotherhood Egypt is hiding its true colors.  It was reported today by the Associated Press, "An Egyptian court convicted in absentia Wednesday seven Egyptian Coptic Christians and a Florida-based American pastor, sentencing them to death on charges linked to an anti-Islam film that had sparked riots in parts of the Muslim world." Luckily for Mohammed Morsi, the disastrous Obama foreign policy is on full display.
