#3 Active suppression of political opposition back home? Matthew 7:3 comes to mind. At least Egypt didn't have much of record of a real republic, something the Secretary can't claim when they do such stuff.

#5 Kerry is such a bloody embarrassment to the US and himself. His diplomatic trips are such a waste o' jet fuel.

Greetings from Glasgow, Rantburgers.

#6 Greetings from Rantburg, Paul dear. Don't forget to post photos in the O Club so we all can enjoy your wanderings. (And thank goodness for that! Were it only for officers I should never have been allowed in.)

#8 U.S. officials also revealed that $572 million (420 million euros) in aid, which had been frozen since October, was released to the Cairo government about 10 days ago after finally winning a green light from Congress.

I guess I could tolerate the turd-polisher droning on a few hours for 572 rocks.
