Analysts: US must try hard to dispel notion that it supported Egypt coup

Pro-Israel Advocates Push for Continued Aid to Egypt

On the one hand, some analysts are arguing that the U.S. must try hard to dispel the notion that it supported or now accepts the coup, lest it persuade Islamist parties, including Morsi’s Muslim Brotherhood, that its purported promotion of democracy worldwide does not apply to them.

On the other hand, other analysts – many of them neo-conservatives and others closely associated with the Israel lobby — have greeted the coup in Egypt more positively, urging the Obama administration to accept the coup, continue aid, and work closely with the generals, who are now seen as in control despite their nominal transfer of power to the chief justice of the Supreme Constitutional Court, to ensure a return to democratic rule.

Israel relying on Egyptian army to counter Islamists


Published July 05, 2013
JERUSALEM (AFP) – Israel is relying on the Egyptian army to suppress Islamist militants in the Sinai and to ensure the country's stability after the dismissal of Mohamed Morsi as president, Israeli media and politicians said.
The Egyptian military overthrew Morsi on Wednesday after millions of protesters rallied to demand the Islamist leader quit for failing the 2011 revolution and bolstering his Islamist base at the expense of the rest of the country.
Ministers in the Israeli cabinet have so far stuck to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's order for silence on the subject.
But MP Tzahi Hanegbi, who is close to Netanyahu, welcomed the ouster of Morsi, Egypt's first democratically-elected president who hails from the Muslim Brotherhood.

Massacre Of Islamists By Egyptian Military Likely Strategic
It’s hard to get a handle on what’s happening in Egypt, but my sense is that all of this is deeply political in nature and intent. This is more than just a massacre, it’s a strategic massacre.
By cracking down so violently and indiscriminately on the Muslim Brotherhood and its supporters, the military well knows it will initiate a cycle of retaliatory violence on the part of supporters, sympathizers, and opportunistic elements in the Sinai and elsewhere, who get blamed for being the Brotherhood even though there’s absolutely no evidence that they are.

Egypt crisis: World leaders condemn crackdown on camps

Parts of Cairo descended into chaos as the protest camps were dispersed


There has been strong international condemnation of the deadly crackdown against protest camps in the Egyptian capital Cairo.
US Secretary of State John Kerry said the events were "deplorable" and "a real blow to reconciliation efforts".
EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton and UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon also deplored the use of force.
The interim government has declared a state of emergency and a curfew was in force across parts of Egypt overnight.
Protesters had been demanding the reinstatement of President Mohammed Morsi who was ousted by the military on 3 July.
The Muslim Brotherhood, which backed the protests, said more than 2,000 people died when security forces moved in to clear the two camps - in Nahda Square and near the Rabaa al-Adawiya mosque.
The interim government said 235 civilians had been killed nationwide, as well as 43 police officers. The figures cannot be independently verified.
US Secretary of State John Kerry: "The path towards violence leads only to greater instability"

Interim Prime Minister Hazem Beblawi defended the operation, saying the authorities had to restore security.
But Mr Kerry said it had dealt a "serious blow" to Egypt's political reconciliation efforts.
"This is a pivotal moment for all Egyptians," he said. "The path toward violence leads only to greater instability, economic disaster and suffering."
The office of UN chief Ban Ki-moon said he regretted that Egyptian authorities had chosen to use force to respond to the demonstrations.
