Stand With al-Sisi In Egypt

This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute.

On Wednesday, Islamic State fighters launched a deadly military assault against Egyptian forces, simultaneously attacking some twenty different locations in a town close to Egypt’s Sinai border with Israel. 

Skillfully employing suicide bombs, mortar fire, man-portable anti-aircraft missiles and infantry assaults, the jihadists killed at least 200 soldiers and civilians. This operation marks a major escalation in the war being waged by Islamic supremacists against Egypt’s government – and far worse is in prospect.

President Obama has, in the past, sided with the Islamists in Egypt.  There is reason to believe he still does. That’s a formula for losing the Mideast’s most populous, strategically critical and American-armed nation.  We cannot afford to let that happen and should strongly support the man trying to prevent it: Egyptian President al-Sisi.
