Stop at once the transfer of F16s or any offensive weapons to Egypt's Mohammed Morsi and his Muslim Brotherhood allies.

Created by G.C. on January 23, 2013

Egypt's president is a current member of the Muslim Brotherhood. The Muslim Brotherhood is the ideological parent of Al Queda and other violent Jihadist groups waging war against the U.S. in particular and the West in general. As recently as 2010, President Morsi labelled Jews as "descendants of apes and pigs." The current administration rightly called those remarks "deeply offensive." We have no reason to believe Mr. Morsi does not still hold those beliefs, protestations to the contrary notwithstanding. He has recalled no transformative event which caused him to change his thinking. Thus, Egypt's Morsi should not receive any more American weapons when there is the real possibility that our armed forces may someday face our own weapons systems in another Middle Eastern theater.
