CAIRO (AP) — The Latest on the bombing of two churches in Egypt (all times local):
5:30 p.m.
President Donald Trump is joining in the international condemnation of the church bombings in Egypt, and he says he is “so sad to hear of the terrorist attack” against the U.S. ally.
Trump says in a tweet Sunday that he has “great confidence” that Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi, “will handle the situation properly.”
The Palm Sunday attacks on Coptic Orthodox churches in the Nile Delta city of Tanta and in Alexandria took place less than a week after Trump welcomed the Egyptian leader to the White House.
The two had reaffirmed their commitment to working together to fight radical groups such as the Islamic State group.
The attacks killed more than 40 people and injured dozens. more
I cannot, for the life of me, understand how this one time Irish Catholic, Fordham/Jesuit educated man became head of the CIA.
Listen to him in his own words:
John Brennan speaks on National Security at NYU, Feb 13, 2010, youtube.
Aligns with what my Marine friend told me this morning. We got together yesterday and ended up sitting around the fire ring sipping bourbon and discussing and solving the worlds problems until 2am. Smart dude. Can recite Tocqueville and other philosophers. He’s been to every shit Hole out there. I trust him.
Bedtime is going to come early tonight though. I don’t do late night drinking and philosophizing the way I used to.
@moe Tom.
Marine friend I just described is a terrorist snake killer and told me Brennan is a national security threat. I mean it’s pretty obvious even to the layman but he knows details.
Everything I needed to know about islam I learned from reading Churchill’s opinion years ago.
I dunno, never send in a sissi to do a mans job.
PHenry, Yes, and I’m just a layman. But how did he become Director of the CIA?
Haw! ^^ @ Brad’s joke.
Brennan, Comey, Koskinen, why has Trump not fired them? Even if he doesn’t have a good replacement ready an empty desk is better.
@moe Tom.
When you elect an enemy of the state as president he appoints fellow enemies to do his undermining. Although Brennan has been around during Bush 43.
Deep state.
Joe6. Brennan is gone, Mike Pompeo is in as CIA Chief. Koskinen should go soon. Not sure about Comey. I trust President Trump’s judgement.
@joe6pak and everyone who is wondering why President Trump keeps Obama’s lackeys in power – I wonder also. After reading “John Adams” by David McCullough (the HBO Mini-series was based on that book), I am very concerned. John Adams also kept three members of George Washington’s cabinet members and learned the hard way not to trust men whose loyalties were not with the new President.
Brennan is gone? I missed it. Had I known I would have toasted to his leaving. If I’m in the mood I’ll toast to just about anything.
Yeah Brennan is gone but what seeds he hath sown are there for the reaping. Crazy, dangerous world we live in now, ever since the election of Obama.
Just type in John Brennan and go to the “American Spectator” article
I can’t take this shit anymore. Gonite.
Just remember, Sisi had the ballz to outlaw the
muslim brotherhood and push it in Nobama’s face.
Trump needs to declare them a terrorist group also,
along with cair.
