Greece, Italy, Portugal, Ireland Who? EU Gifts Egypt's Islamist Regime $6.5 Billion In Grants

Believe or not, fiscal crisis or not, the EU is itching to fund the Islamist government in Egypt:

European Council President Herman Van Rompuy, visiting Cairo, said on Sunday the European Union and other financial institutions had offered Egypt over 5 billion euros to support Egypt's democratic transition.

"The European Union and associated financial institutions have offered an amount of more than 5 billion euros, or more than $6.5 bln, in grants, concessional loans and loans for a period of 2012 and 2013 to support Egypt's democratic transition," Rompuy told reporters


Well, I'm sure that makes the Greeks, Italians, Irish, Spaniards and Portuguese feel all warm and cozy inside...as well as the citizens of the other EU countries now suffering under harsh austerity budgets.

Unbelievable.
