Bombs away Bashar

Obama wants Morsi released…why?

In their time in power Mohamed Morsi and the Muslim Brotherhood trampled on the human rights of millions upon millions of Egyptians, drove the Egyptian economy into the ground, did everything they could to establish a full-fledged Islamic state and the supremacy of Islamic law (Sharia) in Egypt, presided over a government that would not and could not meet the needs of the people, especially the material needs, and were generally dragging Egypt and the Egyptian people out of the twenty-first century and back to the seventh, when Islam first came into existence. They were a brutal, savage and backward regime which was anti-American, anti-Semitic, anti-Western, anti-Christian, anti-Israel, anti-anything that wasn’t Islamic, anti-everything that smacked of tolerance and modernity and were misogynistic in the extreme...their hatred and disgust for Americans, Jews, the West, Christians and Israel was palpable and their treatment of women, minorities and political opponents was beyond abhorrent.
