Egypt's military head, field Marshal Hussein Tantawi warned today after Hillary Clinton left that he won't let the Muslim Brotherhood dominate Egypt, even though Hillary had advised him to work with Egypt's elected Islamist leaders, so he wasn't very happy with her suggestions. He stated that "Egypt will never fall. It belongs to all Egyptians and not to a certain group--the armed forces will not allow it." The military has cut Morsi's powers and has taken over the job of writing a new constitution.
Egypt itself wasn't happy with her either, boys holding placards showed they hated Israel just a little more than they hated her. Her motorcade was hit with shoes, tomatoes and a few water bottles. The people called out "Monika, Monika, remembering her husband's affair just to irk her.
While Egypt's liberals were for the Arab Spring, the liberals and Christians are now accusing Clinton and Obama with forcing the Muslim Brotherhood down Egypt's throat to curry favor with the Islamists.
With that greeting behind her, Hillary then met with Prime Minister Binyamim Netanyahu in Jerusalem on the last leg of her trip abroad. She was there to talk about Iran's nuclear power and the stalled peace process with Hamas and Fatah.
As usual, southern Israel at that moment was hit with a rocket at around 9:30pm. An Israel News Daily article explained what happens is that first the scream of the Color Red rocket alert sounds. 15 seconds later a rocket explodes. This time it was a short-range Qassam and it exploded somewhere in the western Negev. Security personel have to go out to locate the site where it exploded. Israelis must stay in their shelters for 10 minutes after its impact to make sure it's not being followed immediately by another which can happen.
An hour later, another attack did come, this time against the nearby city of Sderot, which is the closest to the Gaza Strip. This rocket exploded in a field on the outskirts of the city. Hillary should visit the southern part just to see what it's like and what the population endures from the terrorists.
