Kerry praises Egyptians for presidential election

Senator John Kerry praised Egyptians for following through with their first free presidential election since the ouster of longtime dictator Hosni Mubarak.

“This is an historic moment for them in their post-revolutionary period, and it’s an Egyptian moment just as it’s been an Egyptian revolution,’’ the Massachusetts Democrat said in a statement Sunday after Egypt’s election commission declared Mohammed Morsi of the Muslim Brotherhood the winner in the presidential balloting a week ago.

The young people that started the revolt are not in favor of Morsi, they did not want the Muslim Brotherhood in power, the photo explains a lot, no women. Kerry, you will regret this.

"Yet kerry also acknowledged the frosty relations the Muslim Brotherhood has had with the United States and Israel and said much work needs to be done." Yea, I would say that since the stated goal of the MB is to destroy Western civilization from within, that relations should be a little frosty, but I am not so sure they are. Recently throughout the military and our security agencies such as the CIA, FBI and DHS there has been a purge of wording in their manuals and other directives that might in any way shape or form suggest that Isalm has some violent tendancies and does not much care for the non-Muslim world. Congress needs to investigate how this happened and where the push for it came from. MB influence maybe?

John Kerry, Barack Obama, and the Boston Globe (which continually called the "Arab Spring: a "SuccesS" in news articles and also in anti-GOP political cartoons) OWN this foreign policy FIASCO. ---------------- And the evidence is clear, Kerry, Obama, and the Globe are pro-Muslim and anti-Israel. No Jewish person should vote for or support any of them.------- Obama told American Jews "I have Israel's back". A monstrous LIE by the President.
