Morsy meets al-Qaeda's al-Zawahiri in Pakistan, bringing him to Egypt

Reports in Arab media indicate that President Obama's Second BFF, Egyptian President Mohammed Morsy, has met secretly in Pakistan with al-Aqeda commander Ayman al-Zawihiri (Hat Tip: MFS - The Other News). The two agreed that al-Zawihiri will relocate to Egypt.
The Pakistani source, which Elgdida quoted, adds that:
“…the meeting lasted 45 minutes, during which Egyptian president Muhammad Morsi promised to make preparations for Ayman Zawahiri to return soon to Egypt, indicating that some Muslim Brotherhood members would handle the operation, by first smuggling the al-Qaeda leader to a Gulf nation, likely Qatar, and then easily transferring him to Egypt—on condition that Zawahiri disappear lest he embarrass Egypt’s ruling Muslim Brotherhood with its American ally, whose security and intelligence agencies consider Zawahiri most wanted.”
Morsi is not the only Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood figurehead to meet Zawahiri. Daniel Pipes chronicled multiple instances of Tareq Ramadan, the grandson of the Muslim Brotherhood’s founder Hassan Al-Bana, in which Ramadan interacted with al-Qaeda operatives—including and like Morsi coordinated a meeting with al-Qaeda’s number two at the time, Ayman al-Zawahiri.
But don't expect the Obama administration to reduce its aid to Egypt by one cent.

What could go wrong?
