And I would have totally agreed with you had your government NOT meddled in our internal affairs and back up a terrorist group on group on grounds that its representative (former president Morsi) was so called 'democratically' elected! and portraying the Egyptian second wave of its revolution on 30th June 2013 as a military coup. Well, Hitler as well was 'democratically' elected, but that did not stop the USA and its allies from going to war against his atrocities.<br />CNN has forged a video to favor Morsi supporters, the rest of the US media is backing up the US Administration in its support of the Terrorist gang known as the Moslem Brotherhood and turning a blind eye towards the massacre against our fellow Christians. So double measures is indeed the issue. IF the USA remained neutral all the above would have made sense Madame/Sir but regretfully it did not. The usual dirty game of politics and mutual interest.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4067977173951690762.post-65222371122135966282013-07-14T10:12:58.679-07:002013-07-14T10:12:58.679-07:00At 1:00pm EDT, CNN usually repeats Zakaria's &...At 1:00pm EDT, CNN usually repeats Zakaria's "GPS".

So, why should we expect them to be outraged about Egypt's treatment of Coptic Christians?<br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MkGP7s0SGtY<br /><br />Let's see, which specific news items are currently trending on CNN (US version)? <br />The Zimmerman Trial, Kim Kardashian's summer outfits, LiLo's post rehab interview with Oprah, Lady gaga's new album, Kate vs. Diana's Maternity Style...<br />OK, OK, time to change intellectual gear. <br />Over to WaPo, (click).<br />Here's something interesting, albeit predictable..."U.S. looks for signs of thaw as new Iranian president Rouhani prepares to take office".<br /><br />http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/us-looks-for-signs-of-thaw-as-new-iranian-president-rouhani-prepares-to-take-office/2013/07/12/bde7b9c0-eb38-11e2-a301-ea5a8116d211_story.html<br /><br />Now, read through some of the comments. Guess who decides which three comments are displayed before clicking on the "View all comments" link? Now I'm feeling outraged!<br /><br />Bottom, line: Regarding Middle East politics, ignorance is just as bliss whether you live in a trailer park in Kalamazoo or a brownstone in Georgetown.
