bolton, we do back parties and individuals, pro-shirria and pro-islamic ones, like the muslim brotherhood. why didn t we back the democratic movement in iran in 2009, if that s what the united states does? the president s policy is confused. that statement was mushier than even his usual statements. look, we have mishandled the situation in egypt for two and-a-half years. i don t think the president knows, really, where he stands or what he wants to do. the anti-morsi demonstrators for several days have criticized the obama administration for standing with the muslim brotherhood, which most americans would find inexapplicable. i think we shouldn t overstate our influence. i do think we have influence with the military through years of providing extensive assistance. i hope that that was understood by the military. and i think, although it overturns an elected president, really, it is in america s
i understand that when the military announced the road map for peace, that it was developed by a coptic christian. that s amazing to me given the fact the muslim brotherhood has been killing people and the coptic christians put the road map down, don t you find that rather shocking? reporter: the coptic christian community is a powerful community here in egypt. they re a large community. people don t think of them here, but they are a large powerful and sometimes wealthy community here. they have had a lot to say particular li on the opposition. the christian community has had problems with the muz wlim brotherhood.kly li on the opposition. the christian community has had problems with the muz wlim brotherhood.the christian commu problems with the muz wlim brotherhood. 200,000 or so have left in the last year or so, so they have felt persecuted and have tried to work with opposition leaders. one thing that should be said, there is a feeling here that

shortlived. and please, be safe. all right. egypt is the largest of all the arab countries. the ouster of the first democratally elected president will affect the entire region. what is the united states stake and what should president obam be doing? ambassador john bolton is here. it looks like 2011, when we saw protesters in the streets of cairo. hosni mubarak stepped down. are we just replacing mubarak with mubarak? what are we doing? well, you know, hosni mubarak called for the ouster of mohammed morsi, so you can bet mubarak s celebrating tonight, too. the fact is that the muslim brotherhood had taken its election victory and was using it to follow the principle one person, one vote, one time. they wanted to establish an
