WASHINGTON [MENL] -- The administration of President Barack Obama has
blocked U.S. military aid to Egypt.
Officials said the White House decided to halt most of the $1.3 billion
in U.S. military aid to Egypt for fiscal 2014. They said the decision
reflected Obama's frustration over the refusal of Egypt's military to halt
its crackdown on the ousted Muslim Brotherhood movement.
