I ask my fellow Americans to support the revolution of the Egyptian people which ousted President Morsi and the Muslim Brotherhood from power. I don't ask this of my fellow citizens lightly, but after careful consideration of the administrations stance on US-Egypt relations, the actions and statements of the US Embassy in Cairo and the history of the Muslim Brotherhood. Whilst Dr. Morsi was a democratically elected leader of the country his actions demonstrated a real desire to consolidate power. Moreover, under his leadership the Egyptian people came to suffer economically like no time in the last 40 years. I ask President Obama and Amb. Patterson to stay neutral and allow the Egyptian people to resolve the matter for themselves.
