| Publisher Description: Egypt is in a struggle with terrorism and Islamic jihadist groups, like ISIS and Al Qaeda. It is essential that the United States maintain alliances like the one we have with Egypt, not only as a partner in providing logistical support in the region but also as a participant in our shared fight against the radical Islamic ideology. Egypt's strong relationship with Israel, particularly with regard to their antiterrorism cooperation in the Sinai, is also of strategic benefit to the United States. The United States has significant human rights concerns with Egypt, including inexcusable restrictions on freedom of the press, assembly, association, and expression; and, the reports of deplorable prison conditions, torture, and inhumane treatment, and discrimination of women and minorities should not and must not be ignored. Long-term stability will only come with the kind of prosperity, respect for human rights, and self-determination that allows all Egyptians to feel that they have a say in the future of their beloved country. |
