Daniel ,   South America   (10.10.13)
Another brick in the wall of Side show of Baracks Obama .May be he is supporting the MB and the President representative of the Teheran Times editions?May be Yes may be no Who knows ? CHI LO SA Egypt Army needs to stay Firm and calm and going step by step like till now in the road towards a Constitutional democracy .Israel needs to watch carefully the erratic plans of Obamas for the Middle East and dont trust too much in his sense or apparent knowledge .Best Regards from Sotuh America SHALOM -MARHABAN
2. Obama wrong on Libya and totally blind on Egypt
r ,   Atlanta   (10.10.13)
There is an army of Islamists trying to destabilize Egypt into a civil war . Obama is aiding the Islamists. The policy is wrong. It is creating a floor of mud which will create vast killing fields by neutering the army which has been stabilizing force in Egypt.
3. Another day, Another Obama cock up
norbus ,   Jerusalem   (10.10.13)
Mr Obama seems determined to wake the dead . He has devalued the Nobel Peace prize, but then they gave one to Arafat, didn't they?. The Americans voted him in twice. They must see something we do not. Perhaps feeling guilty at having been a Land of the free, Healthy economy the American Dream, and Global Power The little glitches on the way do not count ; Politicised IRS , Charles Rosen, Blackmail for $8bn to Morsi, Benghazi, What difference does it now make misleading the American people? , Ignoring the Green revolution, ensuring Iran had 5 years to progress the bomb, the holy red lines, Now picking on Egypt , a loyal ally for years, and a lot more, all in a good cause..
4. The most stupid presidnet of the West!
Mira ,   Vienna   (10.10.13)
Russia and China will gladly and swiftly step in! This clueless president with his inflated ego is becoming a real danger for the Western World and should be thrown out of politics! Please Americans, ACT!
5. US double standards...Israel should support Egypt
Sherifsalem ,   Porto   (10.10.13)
Make no mistake that Hussein Obama is playing with fire, The Egyptian Military deposed a radical islamists regime a copy cat of Hamas 10 years earlier that would have distabilized the area in the near future and send Egypt back to the middle ages. I dont think that this is what israel would prefer!!!! Sooner or later they would have turned their guns on Israel. Israel South boarder is safer with SISI
6. Evidence of Obama's support for Muslim Bro-hood
Shep ,   Memphis   (10.10.13)
If securing the peace in Egypt - and more importantly in the Suez Canal is a vital US interest, Obama is making a huge mistake. If defeating Muslim extremists in Sinai is a vital US interest, Obama is making a mistake. Problem is, this is no mistake. Obama is leading America to appease and accomidate the Muslim Bro-Hood and all it represents. Basically, Obama is surrendering Egypt and Israel to Iran and her proxies. Shame on Obama. With that said, Obama won't succeed and the ground in the Mideast will shift and the USA will find itself unable to protect it's interests when she has no friends there.
7. The right person in the right time
Samuel ,   Israel   (10.10.13)
Gen. Al Sisi is a man of GUTS. The world should encourage him & not discorage him. I admire this Gen.how he ousted the muslim brotherhood, who are nothing more than ignorant fanatics full of hatered towards mankind. in the name of Allah just believe in murder. How in the world are these murderers going to feed its citizens? Gen.Sisi should be awarded the Medal of Honour for getting rid of the Muslim Brotherhood.
8. Shut Up, Just Give Us The $$$!!!
Jersey Jew ,   New Jersey, USA   (10.10.13)
9. Egypt criticizes US decision to halt aid
George Weiss ,   Teaneck, USA   (10.10.13)
This is one of the stupidest foreign policy decisions ever by any country and Obama's tilt towards Moslem extremists is to blame. The question is-is US and West better off with MB or with Army backed by a very large number of egyptians? The answer should be obvious to all.
10. hope
hy   (10.10.13)
erdan is weak, like shalom and shteinitz, sheep in wolve's clothing. never mind hope. israel will conduct itself professionally and in an upright manner. End of story. None of th is hope business.
11. It does seem odd doesn't it?
Ezra ,   San Diego   (10.10.13)
It does seem odd that someone in the US gov chose not to disperse another check to Egypt. I think the US federal government is in the process of imploding right now.
12. OBAMA
Robert S Levine ,   Las Terrenas,DR   (10.10.13)
Obama supports the Muslim Brotherhood. He loves Morsi and he loves Erdogan.Remember he made Bibi apoligize to Erdogan.How has that worked out for Israel???
13. I hear the echoes of 1989...
Gunnar ,   Gothenburg, Sweden   (10.10.13)
...when Li Peng, the man who ordered the Tiananmen Square massacre, was "upset and puzzled" at the international community's response to the slaughter of thousands of students and democracy activists. "Boo-hoo....sanctions.....boo-hoo....why are we being criticized...we've done nothing wrong...boo-hoo". Al-Sisi and the Egyptian generals have learnt nothing.
14. Israel wants Cold War Dictators back, fear Arab Democracy
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (10.10.13)
