US Senator Lindsey Graham has expressed the Obama administration’s concerns over the fallout of the latest turmoil in Egypt for the Israeli regime.

“If Egypt goes and Israel is surrounded by more and more radical regimes … we’ll regret not doing everything possible to keep Egypt on track as a stable society,” he said on Tuesday signaling Washington’s interference in Egypt’s internal affairs.Israel urges US not to freeze Egypt aid."

– Israel has urged Washington not to suspend its annual $1.3 billion in aid to Cairo in the wake of the ouster of Egyptian president Mohamed Morsi by the military, press reports said on Tuesday.

Under US law, all military and economic aid must be suspended to any country where the government is overthrown by the military, although Washington has not yet determined whether it considers the June 30 removal of Morsi was actually a coup – a claim made by the Muslim Brotherhood, to which the ousted president belongs.

Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Tuesday accused Israel of being responsible for the military takeover in Egypt, saying that he has “evidence” that points to Israel’s involvement.

According to the Turkish newspaper Today’s Zaman, Erdogan met with members of his party in Ankara on Tuesday and said: “Israel is behind the coup in Egypt, we have evidence.”

The report also said that Erdogan mentioned the words of a French Jewish intellectual, who he did not name, who said in 2011 that the Muslim Brotherhood will not take power even if they were to be elected since “democracy is not the ballot box.”
