What Egypt's military power shift could mean for the United States
By Josh Levs
Egyptian President Mohamed Morsy's surprising move to amass substantially more power has triggered demonstrations on both sides and accusations that he is effectively anointing himself with "imperial" authority.
Morsy shook up the country's powerful military leadership Sunday when he removed its leader, Field Marshal Mohammed Hussein Tantawi, and chief of staff Lt. Gen. Sami Anan. Both were then named as advisers to Morsy, the country's first freely elected president. The commanders of Egypt's navy, air force and air defense force were sent into retirement as well, promoting others within the military to take those posts, said Morsy spokesman Yasser Ali.
The Egyptian military represents a critical relationship for the U.S. and, as Barbara Starr reports, the upheaval is of concern at the Pentagon.

I've been looking for blogs where blogger covers penis enlargement or at least delves into the topic of penis enlargement with an independent and serious voice. What are the leading blogs of this type?.
Thank you for any other wonderful post. Where else may just anybody get that type of information in such an ideal means of writing? I've a presentation next week, and I am on the look for such info.
I just like the valuable information you supply to your articles. I will bookmark your blog and check again here regularly. I'm reasonably certain I will be told plenty of new stuff proper right here! Best of luck for the following!
All you brainwashed muslims should read this and watch the video in the middle of this page..

All you brain-washed neocons should be the first in combat.
THERE IS NO SUCH A THING AS AMERICAN FOREIGN POLICY. It is all ZIONIST foreign policy.
And it's our "zionist" foreign policy that allows you to post drivel like you have without repercussions. Try posting anti-nationalist garbage on webpages in the Mid East and see what happens. We make mistakes all the time and we know it. The difference is, by and large, we try and do the right things. Not cower behind anti-American slogans when the real problem is the apathetic rants of people not fighting out against oppression in the form of religious fundamentalism. Mass murder of thousands is OK by fundamentalists, but being aggressive in business and being the world leader makes us infidels. Success breeds contempt and I'm afraid it's too many sour grapes from some places around the globe to be anything else.
I think you're confusing "American exceptionalism" with American @ssholism. And as far as anyone saying something you don't like, it's called "freedom of speech". Deal with it.
Janni, you are an asswhole of the first degree!
I think the move by Morsi is more in the smarter side of Egyptian politics. It might not have made the old military powers happy but I think the move is welcome to the younger officers all the way down. Systems of promotion and succession are usually hushed issues in many military organizations.
USA/EU terror gang and their outpost isreal losing their grip on Egypt.
Janni, you are an asswhole!
Janni, you are an xtra large asswhole!
Jannai- Oh, please.....that is such an inane statement.......look that up
If this is supposed to be a news article, it's not. We have no knowledge of what's going on, never did, and until we get a State Dept with some new people we won't. Our so-called diplomats just stand around applauding anything that happens and yelling Democracy through bullhorns that are only plugged into their own earphones. It's really rather pitiful.
Let's just hope that this Mohammed Morsi doesn't start taking orders from Washington D.C. but I'm afraid that he'll will the way Hosni Mubarak did. It appears that those clowns in Washington want to be dominant evrywhere these days!
Pitiful, what an air head, or should I say a media brainwashed air head.
Of which "media" do you speak? Certainly not the MSM?
