White House Says US Has Not Cut Off Aid To Egypt
2013-08-21
Flip, flop...flip.
[Ynet] Media reports that suggest the United States has cut off aid to Egypt are not accurate, a White House front man said on Tuesday, adding that the B.O. regime is still reviewing its options.

"That review has not concluded and ... published reports to the contrary that assistance to Egypt has been cut off are not accurate," White House front man Josh Earnest told news hounds in a briefing. Earnest also said that Egypt's detention of Moslem Brüderbund leader Mohamed Badie was not in line with the standard that the United States would hope to uphold in protecting basic human rights
...not to be confused with individual rights, mind you...

#5  If they wait long enough, they won't have to decide.

It's almost as if our government is totally populated by Wally from Dilbert. His philosophy is that if you wait long enough, a priorty ceases to be a priorty.

#3  If they wait long enough, they won't have to decide.

That's a classic passive-aggressive trait. Something I've witnessed a lot over the years, and continually with this administration.

Actually, if one were to look up the traits of 'Passive-Agressive Personality Disorder', one could find the blueprint for O's administration.

#2  still reviewing its options

Which is also a decision, much like voting "Present". If they wait long enough, they won't have to decide.

#1  OTOH JAPAN TODAY > EGYPT CAN SURVIVE WIDOUT US MILITARY AID: INTERIM MINISTER.

Interim PM Hazer Al-Beblawi.

* JAPAN TIMES > POLITICAL ISLAM AT A CROSSROADS IN EGYPT - AND IN ARAB WORLD.

Gettysburg, Middle East = Muslim World.

MusBros as the "Mother/Mothership" of contemporary Political Islam could either disappear forever, or else more likely to return to the covert underworld from whence it arose, + rise again???
