Placed hours ago in Tahrir Square in preparation for the mass anti-Brotherhood protests planned beginning June 30 in Egypt, a large banner says in both English and Arabic, “Obama Supports Terrorism.”
It’s hard to dispute this unflattering charge, when one considers that all throughout the Islamic world, Obama offers his support for Islamists and jihadis — al-Qaeda “rebels” in Libya and Syria, Boko Haram in Nigeria, and the Brotherhood in Egypt — laughably, under the pretext of “democracy.”
Yet when secular Egyptians and Christians who do not want to live under Sharia law protest, the Obama administration tells them not to.
So much for what the people want…
Thus large numbers of Egyptians are intimately aware of what only a few Americans understand.





Raymond Ibrahim is a Middle East and Islam specialist and author of Crucified Again: Exposing Islam’s New War on Christians (2013) and The Al Qaeda Reader (2007). His writings have appeared in a variety of media, including the Los Angeles Times, Washington Times, Jane’s Islamic Affairs Analyst, Middle East Quarterly, World Almanac of Islamism, and Chronicle of Higher Education; he has appeared on MSNBC, Fox News, C-SPAN, PBS, Reuters, Al-Jazeera, NPR, Blaze TV, and CBN. Ibrahim regularly speaks publicly, briefs governmental agencies, provides expert testimony for Islam-related lawsuits, and testifies before Congress. He is a Shillman Fellow, David Horowitz Freedom Center; a CBN News contributor; a Media Fellow, Hoover Institution (2013); and a Judith Friedman Rosen Writing Fellow, Middle East Forum . Ibrahim’s dual-background -- born and raised in the U.S. by Coptic Egyptian parents born and raised in the Middle East -- has provided him with unique advantages, from equal fluency in English and Arabic, to an equal understanding of the Western and Middle Eastern mindsets, positioning him to explain the latter to the former.
