The Biden administration is set to deny $130 million of military aid to #Egypt over human rights concerns. The same administration earlier this week approved arms sales to Egypt for a combined value of more than $2.5 billion reuters.com/world/biden-ad…
This is exactly why so many of us have said over and over that U.S, foreign policy is fucked up, regardless of whether a Democrat or a Republican is in the White House, and why so many of us said as abhorrent as Trump was, he was not an aberration.
- Trump called Sisi “my favourite dictator.”
- Biden, 10 yrs ago during #Jan25 Revolution when he was Obama’s VP wouldn’t call Mubarak, our dictator of 30yrs, a dictator.
- 5 US presidents propped up Mubarak

Biden said in a PBS interview in the middle of our revolution in 2011, “Mubarak has been an ally of ours in a number of things…I would not refer to him as a dictator”
This is about US foreign policy which is bipartisan in its fuckery.
Regardless of who is in the White House - Republican or Democrat, Trump or Biden - the US keeps the #Egyptian regime armed and its own arms manufacturers in business.
