EGYPT: Morsi can still count on Obama?

 

Apart from the key stakeholders, nobody knows the exact content of their conversation. Barack Obama he called Tuesday, July 2, Mohamed Morsi to express his support or, conversely, to summon him to let go?

For now, just know it, a source in the White House, the U.S. president said his counterpart in Cairo that Washington was committed to "process Democratic Egypt "and that" support any party or group. " Then say: "Democracy is not just elections. It is also to ensure that the voices of all the Egyptians are heard and represented by their government, including the many Egyptians who show across the country. "… …..

While Mohamed Morsi faces a major protest movement, the United States strive to remain cautious. First, because, even if a large part of the Egyptians think the contrary, Obama considers Morsi was democratically elected. Clearly, it remains difficult for the United States to encourage the removal of a man who came to power through the ballot box and, above all, they have long expressed their support. The Egyptian case, Washington finds itself in a delicate situation, observes Myra Daviran-Mahdy, Egyptian writer and former member of the Economic, Social and Environmental Council (Cese). For now, Washington is trying to temper and tries to limit the damage. June 28, Alexandria, an American was killed during clashes, and the White House fears that U.S. support too light to trigger a new army wave of attacks against U.S. interests.

Muslim Brotherhood "accomodants"

"Morsi was elected there is a more than 51% of the vote and before that, during the legislative, the Muslim Brotherhood, which it is derived, had obtained 40% of cen management in Parliament. This meant for the United States that there was a new power in Egypt with whom they could talk, reminds Eberhard Kienle, Director of Research at CNRS and specialist in Middle East. Power, also had a popular base and enjoyed the consent of the army. Once in power, the Muslim Brotherhood have shown accommodating and the United States saw it possible Democrats with whom they could work. "

For Barack Obama, reaching well with Mohamed Morsi also offered favorable to his famous speech in Cairo in 2009 to improve relations between the United States and the Muslim world following . "After the war in Afghanistan and the controversial detention center in Guantanamo, it allowed the United States to show that they could support an Islamist power" analysis the researcher.

Beginning in March 2013, thanks to a visit to Cairo, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry had announced an assistance of $ 250 million for the purpose of & rsquo , help Egypt overcome the economic crisis. Longtime ally Washington, Egypt receives each year millions of dollars in military aid to cover, as the Al-Ahram website, 80% of its needs weapons. Military cooperation that the United States determine, among other things, respect the peace treaty with Israel and to maintaining security at the border with É Hebrew State

.

To a failed state?

But the time when the White House gave its confidence to the first civilian president of Egypt seems to move away a little more each day. In dismissing Tuesday's ultimatum by the army, which gave him 48 hours to find a solution to the political crisis in the country, Mohamed Morsi takes the risk of a power struggle with the consequences disastrous. "If the Muslim Brotherhood, by their action, plunging the country into chaos if economically nothing works there, Egypt, which, as I recall, controls the Suez Canal could become a failed state. But this event, the United States refused because it would threaten their own interests in the region. "And the men of Israel. "The United States may also fear that in seeking to maintain power the Muslim Brotherhood are attacking Israel outbid Myra-Mahdy Daviran. The Jewish state is always a good excuse to ignite his people. "

Although still hypothetical, this threat can it convince the White House to release the Egyptian president the benefit of the Egyptian army and its new leader Abdel Fattah al-Sisi , which is said to close the U.S. Secret Service? "The United States has contacts among the Egyptian military, which are not unknown to them, but Washington can not ignore the elections that brought to power Morsi," says Myra-Mahdy Daviran. Same analysis on the side of Eberhard Kienle: "At the White House, we do not want to support a military regime. Especially if the army intervenes too openly, it will cause huge problems in the country. "

Stung by the difficult interim president between February 2011 and June 2012 by the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces at the head of the state, high-ranking seem reluctant to take the reins of power. "They know they are zero in power and more effective scenes. Their first priority is not to take power but to push each other in a kind of consensus, provides Eberhard Kienle. If Egypt plunged into chaos, it will not be able to assume the role that the military intend to play him: that of a strong economically and diplomatically regional power. Like the United States, the military seeks stability.

ISRAEL: The Israeli army revived the Six-Day War on Twitter

 

Forty-six years after the Six-Day War, the Israeli army has decided to immerse users in the past through Twitter. On a dedicated account especially the conflict @ IDF1967, messages in Hebrew revive in real time what flash conflict between the 5 to 10 June 1967 Israel & rsquo , Egypt, Jordan and Syria.

IDF fan of social networking

She has done against Hamas, "said FRANCE 24 that specializes in the history of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, referring to the operation against Gaza by Israel in November 2012. The army of the Jewish state was then extensively used social networks to communicate in real time on the offensive against Hamas.

But unlike the virtual campaign last fall, the new operation does not have an international focus. For Amnon Aran, Israel seeks above all to mark the anniversary of the conflict "to reaffirm glorify the war in Israeli society. This is for those who want to remember this victory. " As proof, the IDF uses only Hebrew on this Twitter account. "If they wanted to make propaganda, they would have chosen English. This is ultimately neither neutral nor propaganda. This addresses the Israeli collective memory in the first place, "said the researcher.

IDF also reveals no new information on the conflict or documents kept secret. "These are things that can be found in books or academic work, note Amnon Aran, who carefully read the published since June 5 messages. These are mainly military facts. They do not talk about politics. "

In a message on the first day of the war, @ IDF1967 recounts: "Earlier, we heavily bombed Syrian batteries that had previously fired shells to Rosh Pina."

The Twitter account is part of a series of very popular projects to revive history in real time. Since August 2011, the account @ RealTimeWWII, attended by more than 280,000 subscribers, recounts the events of the Second World War. @ TitanicRealTime, which counts more than 70,000 users, was also allowed to live until April last minute by minute the sinking of the famous ocean liner in 1912.

Israel: The Jewish women pray for the first time in front of the Wailing Wall

 

The prayer of Jewish Women taste of the struggle for gender equality. Jewish activists from the feminist movement "Women of the Wall" prayed Friday for the first time in freedom and under the protection of the police in front of the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem, because Jewish ultra-Orthodox protesters tried to hold them back.

The spokesman of the police Micky Rosenfeld told AFP that 1,000 ultra-Orthodox had been kept out of a large group of feminist association who were paying their monthly prayer including prayer shawl, after a court decision allowing them to do so.

The protesters tried to force their way, some calling the police "Nazis", further throwing insults at the activists. They threw water bottles, garbage bags, plastic chairs and eggs as well as the police women. Police arrested five ultra-Orthodox for "public disorder," the spokesman said. Two policemen were slightly injured.

The prayers ended, the police escorted the women to a bus that transported them out of the Old Town, after being referred by throwing stones, he said.

"A historic prayer"

For over 20 years, these activists had asked to be allowed to pray as they wished on this site aloud wearing the prayer shawl of phylactè res and kippah and reading the Torah, a way of praying traditionally reserved for men before.

Women were previously allowed to pray at the foot of the Wailing Wall, but silently and away. And those who did otherwise were arrested by the police or bothered by ultra-Orthodox.

But last month, a court ruled that the behavior of these women praying as they wished and did not cause any mess that was in contrast those who attacked that were problematic. He decided that the "Women of the Wall" could pray at the site according to their rites. "We made a historic prayer even if it was painful," he told AFP the spokesman of Shira Whitewood association.

According to her, some 400 activists participated in the prayer. "We are extremely proud and happy that our women have prayed in freedom and peace," she said, acknowledging the role of the police.

Before the prayers, the ultra-Orthodox rabbis had called Talmudic student seminars to counter the actions of activists coming in numbers to pray at the Wall, and thousands of them have filled the area reserved for women.

Finally, the activists decided to pray on the esplanade in front of the wall and not at the foot of the wall, said Ms. Whitewood.

"The Wall for all"

This association campaigned for access to the Wailing Wall is assured to all, including the Liberal and Conservative streams of Judaism, a small minority in Israel, which provide women with a place equal to that of men. But for their ultra-orthodox opponents, it violates Jewish religious precepts and constitutes a "provocation."

The Western Wall is the holiest site in Judaism, the last vestige of the Second Temple destroyed by the Romans in 70 AD.

The Aqsa Mosque, the third holiest site in Islam, is attached to the wall, making the site one of the most sensitive places in Jerusalem with regular clashes between Palestinians and Israeli security forces.

In some areas of the capital, police used tear gas to disperse protesters, AFP noted.

"What they do is unconstitutional," denounced Ana Molina, a dentist of 45 years, referring to the announcement by the National Electoral Council (CNE) for the victory of M . Maduro.

The dolphin late President Hugo Chavez was officially credited with 50.75% of the votes against 48.97% for M. Capriles in the election, organized after the death of the charismatic socialist leader, died of cancer on March 5.

"I'm fully pursue his inheritance to the poor defense and the defense of the independence," he told the president-elect, in suit and tie and hand on heart, while providing you "outstretched hand" to the opposition, during a ceremony at the headquarters of the electoral authority in Caracas.

"We have a president" or "Chavez lives, the struggle continues," shouted the audience.

SYRIA: Damascus could "use chemical weapons against its people"

 

Damascus is ready to use chemical weapons against his own people "last resort," he said, from Turkey, the Syrian general Adnan Sillu. This senior comes as the former head of the chemical arsenal of the regime. He defected there three months.

In an interview published Wednesday by the British newspaper The Times, he mentions high-level meetings to which he was able to attend Damascus. "We had

serious discussions on the use of chemical weapons, including how to use and in what areas, "he thus revealed. "We discussed this as a last resort, facing the loss of control by the regime of a large area, such as Aleppo," said the old gen eral, which also indicates the presence of Iranian experts in these meetings. The man explained that he had decided to leave the army after becoming aware of the intentions of the Syrian regime.

These revelations contradict previous assertions of Damascus, by the voice of the spokesman for the Syrian Foreign Ministry, Jihad Makdessi had said in late July that re regime would never use chemical weapons against its own population. Makdessi was noted, however, that it would make use of chemical weapons in case of foreign intervention.

For several months, the Syrian opposition alert the international community about the danger posed by these weapons. Washington and Paris have responded quickly and firmly, ensuring that the use of these weapons would justify a "massive and devastating response", in the words of the head of French diplomacy Laurent Fabius.

"The only argument that could justify an intervention outside the UN mandate"

Lepick Olivier, associate researcher at the Foundation for Strategic Research (FRS) and specialist chemical and biological weapons, invited to address the allegations of former military with "great caution" , noting that there is currently no proof of what he says. General Adnan Sillu "has defecting too late" does not fail to emphasize the researcher.

"For my part, I do not believe for one second that the Syrian regime would use chemical weapons against his own people," he advance, categorical, before continuing: "It has no interest, political or tactical. " In venturing to cross what Washington has called a "red line", explains the researcher, Syria would lose its last allies in the Security Council and "international cause an explosion."

Frédéric Pichon, historian of Syria, also shade the scope of the claims ranking Syrian. "It is not even certain that General has indeed been responsible for the chemical arsenal," he said. For him, these claims are timely for some of the opposition: "We know that the threat of chemical weapons is the only argument that could justify Western intervention outside the UN mandate, that much of the opposition is calling for. "

Beyond that mean about the former military leader, according to Frédéric Pichon they reflect the "information war" being waged by government and the opposition since the beginning of the conflict .

Damascus has tested chemical weapons

The disturbing statements by General Adnan Sillu occur while Damascus is suspected to have carried out tests of chemical weapons. This is at least what said Monday the German magazine Der Spiegel. Citing witnesses, the paper reports tests near the end of August Safira, east of Aleppo. Five to six empty shells of chemicals would, according to the newspaper, was launched from tanks or aircraft at a military.

These allegations suggest "perplexed" chemical weapons expert Olivier Lepick, which is more surprising elements in the description of these tests. "There is no interest in testing chemical weapons by throwing empty shells as the article says Spiegel," he says. The form of the chemical, liquid or solid, may alter the trajectory of the shell. Hence the value of the test. "Usually we use a simulated, a liquid that simulates the conditions in the same," said the scientist. There is also mention of aircraft shells fired, or after him no one ever launched chemical weapons so. "Normally we drop fragmentation bombs." Many "details" that do emphasize the need for this type of information very carefully.
