Morsi has clearly indicated his intention to become the dictator of Egypt. The free election that he won (narrowly) may turn out to be the last one for this important Middle East Country. What should this country do about this troubling situation?
As I write this, a Democratic House member is speaking on this issue. His position seems rather weak to me. He stared by saying that we have little leverage in the Middle East because people in that region have a poor opinion of the U.S.A. Really? We have no leverage? How about Egypt? They hope to get many millions of dollars from us.
Regardless of what the average Egyptian thinks of this country, you can be sure that the government in Cairo wants that money. Ergo, we have leverage. But it will take will power on the part of the President to tell Morsi that he won't get a cent if he continues on his present course.
Does Barrack Obama have the courage to stand up to Morsi?
