The Muslim Brotherhood-affiliated media outlets in Egypt tried to sour the ties between our two countries, but our ties are very strong. No negative stance has been taken by either side against the other. Rumors are being spread by the enemies of our two countries. We pay no attention to them.

Some of the United States’ enemies now assume, perhaps rightly, that we hate each other so much that we’d sooner collaborate with them than do the difficult work of listening to each other. It doesn’t need to be this way – but national recovery won’t come from Washington. It has to start with you.

We need to understand that we are not each others’ enemies in this country. And it is only the political class that derives its power by creating friction.

When you’re playing football, and your enemies are there, you don’t have a lot of time to think to yourself. You’ve got stuff to handle. You’ve got places to be, meetings to go to, bigger fish to fry. You really don’t attack the emotional side of your life.
