Assad: We'll retaliate against Israeli airstrike - Israel News, Ynetnews
"Bashar Assad vowed that Syria would retaliate against Israel for an airstrike on a weapons convoy in the Damascus area last month"




Kerry sits with Muslim Brotherhood's Morsi (?)
Kerry urges Egypt to take difficult economic steps; opposition figures skip meetings - The Washington Post:

"He added that the United States has no political favorites in Egypt.
“I come here on behalf of President Obama, committed not to any party, not to any one person, not to any specific political point of view,” Kerry said.

...The 6th of April movement, a youth opposition group that opposed Mubarak and now opposes the  Muslim Brotherhood’s ruling party, said it refused to be a “checked box” on Kerry’s agenda."

The Obama Administration tip-toeing through the political quagmire in Egypt. No "democracy" any time soon; No 'Arab Spring'; Sharia law more likely.
