Egypt issues arrest warrants for Florida pastor Terry Jones, 7 others

charged with harming national unity, insulting and publicly attacking Islam and spreading false information

Report: US suspends Egypt aid over film riots

The Egyptian governments lame reaction to anti-American violence may (and I stress MAY) finally result in Egypt getting cut off from the billion and a half dollars the US lavishes upon them annually. Up to me, I’d give that money to Israel, on top of what we already give ’em. After all, Judaism gets mocked all the time in the US (often enough by Jewish comedians), and yet you rarely see Israelis trying to destroy the US embassy.
