“Anything we say will be held against us,” said the official, speaking on the condition of anonymity because of he the “volatility” of the diplomatic situation.
“If we condemn the violence we will be accused of supporting the Muslim Brotherhood,” he said, referring to rumors already circulating to that effect. “And if we say we don’t condemn it, then it looks like Israel is in cahoots with the Egyptian Army.”
The official also told the
New York Times, “that does not mean that we don’t have our own opinion and interests.”
