If our President had been raised as an American, with American values, he would oppose the Muslim Brotherhood at every opportunity. Instead of opposing, he supports. There should be a clear message in Putins actions.......... . Aug112013 DING! DING! DING! Vladimir Putin to visit Cairo in support of General Sisi’s move to outlaw Muslim Brotherhood, while Obama fumes Screen-Shot-2013-07-27-at-4.04.05-AM1President Vladimir Putin is set to visit to Cairo on the advice of Saudi intelligence chief Prince Bandar bin Sultan. The prince told Putin that Saudi King Abdullah was in favor of the Russian president going to Cairo as soon as possible and did not rule out the visit occasioning the signing of a large Russian arms sale to Egypt, bankrolled by the oil kingdom. DEBKA The prospect of a Russian presidential visit has fired Gen. El-Sisi with redoubled energy and impetus for his crackdown on the Brotherhood. Putin hopes to come away from Cairo as champion of the war on radical Islam in two important Arab countries and the most reliable ally of forces for moderation. (While Obama is arming and funding the radical Islamists including the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, Libya, and al-Qaeda in Syria) Screen-Shot-2013-07-27-at-4.02.49-AM-550x182 Putin will play it to the hilt as a platform to show the world, and especially Arab Muslims, that he alone of the world’s five leading powers is openly committed to fighting radical Islam and ready to assist any Arab leader sharing this commitment….in striking contrast to Washington. Putin will find Egypt’s strongman, Defense Minister Gen. Abdel-Fattah El-Sisi, in full cry with his next steps against the Muslim Brotherhood, after unseating its president in a coup on July 3. El-Sisi is holding urgent discussions with the heads of the judiciary to have the movement outlawed. The unwritten pact between the generals and judicial system is the most potent political force in Egypt today, which the Brotherhood will find hard to beat. 2_643351645677605_1037292259_n-vi The Obama administration is already seething over the Kremlin’s decision to grant the fugitive former US intelligence contractor Edward Snowden temporary asylum in Russia for escaping trial in the States on a charge of espionage. Even more painful knocks are in store for Barack Obama’s Middle East policy and prestige when Egypt’s military strongman proceeds to outlaw the Muslim Brotherhood movement in defiance of his wishes and Putin turns up in Cairo with more provocations.
