Anti-U.S. Hostility Ramps Up in Egypt

[Zimbow]

A headline in a major Egyptian state newspaper this week referred to the proposed U.S. envoy to Egypt as the "Ambassador of Death." Posters in Cairo's Tahrir Square, a center of pro-government rallies, depict President Barack Obama with a beard and turban, exclaiming his "support for terrorism."

Another large Egyptian newspaper alleged Sen. John McCain, who traveled to Cairo this week in an effort to break a deadlock between the government and its Islamist rivals, has chosen sides by employing Muslim Brotherhood staffers in his office.

Egypt's state and privately owned media outlets, already no strangers to demonizing the U.S., have embarked on a particularly critical campaign. The latest salvos have targeted Robert Ford, the likely nominee for American ambassador to a country that is pivotal to U.S. foreign policy.The moves highlight the depth of public distrust of U.S. policies, and draw from a "reservoir of anti-Americanism and conspiratorial theories," said Vali Nasr, dean of the Johns Hopkins University Paul H. Nitze School of Advanced International Studies and a former senior Obama administration adviser.

Egypt: Call For Daily Protests As Dozens Die

Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood has called for a week of daily nationwide protests after thousands of its supporters rallied in different cities to denounce a violent crackdown on its followers this week.
At least 60 people, including police officers, were reportedly killed on Friday after parts of the country descended into violence.
"We call on the Egyptian people and national forces to protest daily until the coup ends," the Islamist group said in a statement in reference to the army's overthrow of President Mohamed Morsi last month.

Hey, I wonder how many people hate Australia around the world?

What about Canada?

Luxembourg?

Switzerland? Norway? Finland?

Want to know why no one or very little people hate these countries?


Because they don't do whatever they please around the world....because they don't have a military that literally tries to police the world and get into conflicts no one asked them to get into.

I'm sorry, but the U.S military just really bugs me....a lot.
