I bet the US gave some money to the Muslim Brotherhood, too. It
clearly helps the military. It's hedging its bets.
It's not betting--it's fixing the game. The problem is a mass
uprising. US's solution, its absolute requirement, is a military
regime in Egypt. Mubarak/Tantawi was a military regime. Morsi/Sisi
was a military regime. Bublowi/Sisi is a military regime. As will be
the next "democratically elected" government. The point is to change
just enough that nothing will change--all paid for through its Gulf
clients.
