WASHINGTON (AP) - The election of an Islamist president in Egypt is
turning longstanding U.S. policy in the Mideast inside out: The Obama
administration is relieved that the candidate representing three decades
of close partnership with the United States lost.
The United States is now set to embrace a religious-based former
opposition leader who does not share many U.S. goals, perhaps including
the 30-year peace with Israel upon which U.S. policy in the region is
based. The embrace won't be warm, and for the administration it will
come with strings attached.
Still, the administration is calling the election of Mohammed Morsi on Sunday a milestone in the transition to democracy.
