Christianity was misunderstood and it's religious application abused..but in the over all Christian doctrine in it's purity is the best and most high minded way of thinking on earth. To support anyone that allows the killing of Christians in Egypt is a great SIN...based in the sinister lust for power by the Muslim Brotherhood. America was built on the foundations provided by Christianity. In fact the revolutionary war cry by American fighters back in the late 1700s was "No King but Jesus"....To support the killers of the followers of Christ the King is a clear sign of the dismantling of the Christian empire called The United States Of America.
Once King Jesus is dethroned...He will be replaced by Mohamed the King...Who is the more intelligent and benevolent ruler? That is the real question here..because dead Kings kept alive through religion are real...Do you want someone who rules and dominates by the sword...or a king that rules through love compassion and tolerance?

We also heard whiny little right-wing weenies crying that we should support the fight for democracy in Egypt just as they did over Iraq but I guess your convenient memory loss is kicking in, eh?

Unfortunately we have been supporting such people for decades.
It makes a lot of sense that the Brotherhood would let reporters in to see this going on so they could report to the other Egyptians what happens to those who get themselves arrested for protesting the attempt by Morsi to gain dictator status. Of course, they know that using the press to inform the protesters will work, in the long run. The really sad part of this whole story is the fact that our "leader" was so proud of the Arab Spring and now does nothing to stop this kind of thing. Of course, the Muslim Brotherhood has severely been able to insert their people into our government over a period of many years.
That makes sense. I also think this went on in Libya with Gaddafi supporters and is going on in Syria to Assad supporters.
Are all those weapons Obama is sending Morsi intended to help him put down the actions of the mob? If so, I wonder how they will do that hanging. I guess if they do it soon enough they are ok.
Plus we will send in over 3 billion $ again this year for financial aid. Egypt is one of our larger recipients.
You are right, I stand corrected. However, between Saudi Arabia, Qatar, United Emerites, and the U.S., money is pouring into Egypt.
They owe us 3.2 billion from decades old foodaid loans, but we have forgiven 1 billion of that.

Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the United States and other international donors have already pledged assistance to Egypt.
In May, Qatar announced that it is planning projects worth at least $10 billion to help Egypt’s economy, although it was not announced what these projects will be.
Qatar is also believed to be mulling purchases of Egyptian treasury bonds, an idea that had been brought up by Egypt’s Finance Minister Samir Radwan during a recent visit to Qatar.
Egypt is also receiving $4 billion in financial aid from Saudi Arabia, and has had $1 billion written off in debt owed to the United States.
Also in May, United States President Barack Obama said he would guarantee another $1 billion in borrowing to finance infrastructure and job creation.
Oy vey. What kind of arms have we been sending them, anyway? According to the State Department, the aid has included [12] fighter jets, tanks, armored personnel carriers, attack helicopters, antiaircraft missiles, and surveillance aircraft. In the past, the Egyptian government has bought some of the weaponry on credit.
