31. No, US aid to Egypt has not stopped
Misha ,   Tel Aviv   (08.20.13)
It has been redirected thru Saudi Arabia because the US cannot agree to supply aid directly after a military coup. Don't assume for a moment that aid from Saudi Arabia comes independently of the USA.
32. Anarchic Mayhem Danger
Zechariah   (08.20.13)
Millions protested against the Moslem Brotherhood and millions are protesting for it so dire conflict beckons.A cooling off period and Truce with Moderation for the sake of sheer survival is needed in Eygpt .
33. Now kick Erdogan out of NATO

Raoul ,   Israel   (08.20.13)
It may not be too clear who the good guys are, but it is abundantly clear MB are the (VERY) bad guys.
35. Time to ask whose side is Hussein Obama on?

God'sway   (08.20.13)
Obama is on side of his wife and don't forget she is tongue speaking born again christian and you can't easily foget tongue speaking - purely done in secret.
37. Obama supports Islamists
Scott ,   Givatayim, Israel   (08.20.13)
This is an incredibly stupid move on Obama's part. If he considers it a coup - it was the 1st one in history that was supported by millions of people. Al Sisi is doing what is necessary to prevent anarchy & prevent Egypt from turning into Iran.
38. Welcome ladies and gentlemen
Brett L ,   JHB South Africa   (08.20.13)
to the end of the Israel / egypt peace accord. And all under a man who everyone thought would be able to "sort" things out. He (obama) is the worst thing to happen to the world since chamberlain!! he has got it so wrong on all scores it is fricking scary.
39. Only military aid!! And Israel can take up the slack ;-)
Michael Redbourn ,   Lisbon Portugal   (08.20.13)
Obama is either pro Muslim Brotherhood or clueless ... either way he is maybe the worst POTUS that America every had :-( Egypt received a total of $1.56 billion in military and economic aid in fiscal 2012, ranking fifth behind Israel, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Iraq, Military aid? Many news services are reporting this however ... "Obama axes economic aid to Egypt, keeps military money flowing!".
40. #38 Chamberlain vs Obama
(08.20.13)
Why insult Chamberlain? Chamberlain knew that without the French, he could fight a land war against the Germans, so he sold out the Czechs hoping they would attack Stalin. Chamberlain never viewed his own citizens as the enemy, and he resigned as soon as his failure was clear.
41. #26: "The law is an ass"
Steve   (08.20.13)
42. If that was true ,...
split ,   US   (08.20.13)
AIPAC goons and Israeli chicken hawks wouldn't like it - Google 'Cutting Egypt Aid Would Kill Mideast Peace Hopes' to read why? ,... They are supplying their 'toys' by proxy ,...
