John Cusack plays President Richard M. Nixon as a sweaty, power-obsessed politician in Lee Daniels’ The Butler. The progressive actor still thinks the leader lionized in the film’s framing device, Barack Obama, represents a power grab far more problematic than the disgraced Nixon.
Egyptian Christians Attacked, Blamed for Morsi's Ouster
From the moment Mohamed Morsi was elected president of Egypt, Christians began to be singled out by Islamists for violence. And as Morsi’s removal grew imminent in late June, Islamists in villages like Al Nazla even marked the homes of Christians with red paint so they would be easier to target.
