Egyptian-Americans debate US role in crisis at home

US Senators John McCain and Lindsey Graham are in Cairo to take part in two days of talks to try to defuse Egypt's political crisis.

The diplomatic push also involved a visit by the US Deputy Secretary of State William Burns to the jail where the deputy head of the Muslim Brotherhood is being held.

Egypt remains deeply polarised by the military's ousting of President Mohammed Morsi on 3 July, a move the US has stopped short of declaring a coup.

America's position has drawn criticism from both sides. But how do Egyptians living in the US feel?

Katy Watson reports from Jersey City, in New Jersey, which is home to one of the biggest Egyptian communities in the US.
