"Egypt’s Morsi leaves for Saudi Arabia on 1st foreign trip" by Hamza Hendawi | Associated Press, July 12, 2012
CAIRO — Egypt’s Islamist president flew to Saudi Arabia Wednesday at the start of his first foreign trip, underscoring the traditionally close ties between the two regional powerhouses.
Mohammed Morsi of the Muslim Brotherhood has said his administration has no plans to export Egypt’s revolution, an implicit reassurance to Saudi Arabia and its Persian Gulf allies, who have been nervous over the possibility of Arab Spring revolts reaching their shores.
That's all in the people who live in those countries hands anyway. Yes, intelligence agencies and countries can try to stir up a coup, but as we have seen in Syria that can only carry a globe-kicker's agenda so far.
He has also asserted his country’s commitment to the security of Saudi Arabia and its Arab allies, a thinly veiled reference to the tension between them and Iran....
Yeah, we already understand the WWIII map in the history books. What I'm wondering is how many of these governments will be dumped by their people when they line up with the EUSrali empire after it's war criminal attack. The Arab and Muslim street doesn't give a crap about Sunni-Shi'ite (that's simply war-promoting Zionist propaganda); what they will see -- as they did in Lebanon in 2006 -- is the EUSraeli empire once again kicking the crap out of and killing Muslims. Period.
Thousands of Brotherhood members sought refuge in Saudi Arabia in the 1950s and 1960s to escape crackdowns by Gamal Abdel-Nasser, Egypt’s ruler at the time.
But Saudi Arabia’s own problems with violent Islamist groups have cooled its ties with groups espousing political Islam, such as the Brotherhood.
Just wondering what the hell you call that Wahhabi extremism they impose on their own.
Some 1.6 million Egyptians live and work in Saudi Arabia, also one of the biggest investors in Egypt.
Aaaaaaaaaaaah! Be it an Islamic government or any other government, you can $ee what is at the bottom of them all.
Morsi is Egypt’s first democratically elected president. He succeeded Hosni Mubarak, who forged close ties with the Saudis during his 29-year rule.
Mubarak was ousted in February 2011 in a popular uprising.
Egyptian media reports have repeatedly claimed that the Saudis were unhappy with the arrest and trial of Mubarak and that they offered to host him in Saudi Arabia after his ouster. Saudi officials have consistently denied these reports....
I gue$$ they have ki$$ed and made up, huh?
