Ahmadinejad seeks alliance with Morsi

This can't be good...especially for our actual ally in the region, Israel.

JPost: Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad arrived in Egypt on Tuesday for a three-day trip with the intention of uniting forces in the region while trying to settle disagreements over the war in Syria. This marks the first trip by an Iranian president to Egypt since the 1979 Islamic Revolution, signaling the shifting dynamics in the region.

Such a meeting with Egypt’s former president Mubarak would have been unimaginable – and this follows Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi’s visit to Tehran in August.

Reuters reported that Morsi kissed Ahmadinejad and gave him a high-level reception with military honors as the Iranian president called for “a new starting point in relations between us.”

He also was quoted by Al-Mayadeen, a Beirut-based TV station, as stating, “The political geography of the region will change if Iran and Egypt take a unified position on the Palestinian question.”

Remember, the guy on the right is who we're sending foreign aid, tanks and F-16s. And he embraces Adolf Jr, seated to the left.

Top that with the love felt for the so-called Arab Spring that blinded so many who thought that overthrowing Mubarak was going to make Egypt a freer people, and you get a real sense of the volatility that our regime helped create...


Yep, Obama built that. So much for that 2009 Cairo speech...
"I’ve come here to Cairo to seek a new beginning between the United States and Muslims around the world, one based on mutual interest and mutual respect, and one based upon the truth that America and Islam are not exclusive and need not be in competition. Instead, they overlap, and share common principles — principles of justice and progress; tolerance and the dignity of all human beings."
