Former Republican Congressional candidate and friend Ari David sent in this analysis on the current crisis in Egypt.
Let’s hope another Islamist hell like Iran does not await the Egyptians, the Middle East and our world.
Egypt is the New Iran
“When Great forces are on the move we realize we are spirits, not animals” – Ronald Reagan
The circle is now complete. This week Barack Obama truly became what many people believe he was all along, the long lost second term of Jimmy Carter’s presidency. The parallel between the snakebit presidency of Carter and the snakebit Presidency of Obama is stunning. The very week of –“Barack Obama 2.0” the “Comeback Kid” the “Clintonesque pivot” the “I love Ronald Reagan” TIME Magazine cover and the “It’s jobs and the economy stupid”- Obama’s weakest issue, foreign policy, leapt from the dark to grab his full attention at the worst possible time.
How is Obama handling such a crisis in order to not let it go to waste? The exact same way that Jimmy Carter let the congruent 1979 situation in Iran go to waste.
First he criticized the weakened leader of Egypt, Hosni Mubarak. Next Obama threatened to emasculate Mubarak’s standing with the Egyptian military by reducing US financial aid if Mubarak didn’t allow the protests and revolution in the streets to continue.
Obama followed up by tacitly signaling that he supports the violent Islamic protests which are backed by the Shariah-compliant extremists of the Moslem Brotherhood, which is the only real opposition party in Egypt to the thirty-year dictator Mubarak. After that, like Carter, Obama showed constant indecision and weakness, which is having the result of undermining our allies and empowering the forces of insanity and evil on the ground in Egypt and other destabilized countries in the region like Tunisia, Lebanon and Jordan.
Just like Carter, Obama got us to this point by undermining our only ally in the area, Israel, and empowering all of her regional enemies for the first two years of his presidency. That undermining has led us directly to these out of control events.
At this moment, of the four nations that border Israel, two of them, Syria and Lebanon, are client states of Iran waging constant war and the other two which both have brokered peace are facing internal turmoil, Jordan is facing Islamic protests in her streets and the relatively stable tourist destination Egypt, is exploding in revolution.
The way Obama is handling the Egyptian crisis there can only be one outcome. The Moslem brotherhood will seize total control of the nation and turn the Arab world’s most populace country into a totalitarian Islamic theocracy just like Iran. Egypt’s fall will be a strategic disaster for the US because Egypt borders Israel and controls the vital Suez Canal which connects the Indian Ocean to the Mediterranean Sea. The Suez is one of the most vital water-ways in the entire world because it is the shipping lane that allows Middle East oil to get to the consumer countries in Europe.
If Egypt falls to this kind of governance total war will quickly come to the Middle East with catastrophic strategic and economic consequences for the whole world.
What should have Obama done? The answer is simple. He should have done the exact opposite of what Carter did in dealing with the Shah of Iran. Obama should have empowered President Mubarak to crush the uprising swiftly and ruthlessly, taking advantage of the fact that Moslem ideation always respects the cold demonstration of power. He should have backed Mubarak by pledging even more military aid to help with the crisis as a symbol of American support and he should have called all associated with the Moslem Brotherhood to surrender or face brutal retaliation.
We can look at these events and Obama’s reaction and see that he is acting in support of the revolution. Obama always supports the side of the Islamist extremists in Middle East affairs. Maybe this is further proof of Obama’s “Moslem Faith” or maybe it is yet another sign of Obama’s weakness, insecurity with his identity as America’s leader or yet another sign of Obama’s limitless well of immaturity.
Iran has been a bastion of total evil since Jimmy Carter allowed her to become an Islamic theocracy in 1979. No country in the world has been more responsible for atrocious evil acts than Iran in all of these years and is now at the doorstep of possessing nuclear weapons. All of this pain is the Jimmy Carter legacy bequeathed upon our generation.
Obama is making a journey down the same path. How ironic that these events are occurring the same week as Ronald Reagan’s 100th birthday. A cold reminder of who saved America and the world from Carter’s total incompetence.
Sometimes events happen in the world in just such a way that remind us all that God’s hand is involved in all things. The week of Obama’s great pivot and Reagan’s 100th birthday, it seems as if God himself stepped in the way of Obama’s plans to end America’s pre-eminent position in the world and delivered world events to him in such a way that the inescapable parallel between Obama and Jimmy Carter can not be avoided except by the most liberal of media lapdogs or the most obtuse progressive voter. The liberal media supporters of Obama are calling the events on the ground in Egypt the “Arab world’s summer of love” and a “Middle Eastern year of Aquarius” (sic). Just like Carter’s Iran, Egypt will prove the beginning of the end for the Obama presidency and an end to any credibility his world view has with the American voter.
The week of the 100th year of his birth, America will be reminded by world events of just what made Ronald Reagan so great.
Related: Via Power Line… There is no good policy for the United States regarding the uprising in Egypt but the Obama Administration may be adopting something close to the worst option.

It could be that Obama predicts who he thinks will win a conflict , and he takes that side so HE looks like a winner. However, he is always picking the fundamentalist islamo fascist side as the winner. I think he and Hillary have been working on this Egyptian revolt for quite some time through Rashid Khalidi, Imam Rauf, Mohammed El Baradei, Khadaffi and so many other islamic BFF that have corrupted DC to betray Israel and allow the islamists to finish the holocaust through Iran.

In this case, unlike the reason we went to war in Iraq is all about oil. Obama isn’t going to stop until he has us back into horse and buggy. What a worthless bastage. The Egyptian leadership needed our help and the Muzzie in the Whitehouse turned his back on them. He needs to take his sorry a@@ back to Kenya and take that gorilla he married with him!

Obama should have empowered President Mubarak to crush the uprising swiftly
No.
Nobody should be in the position of encouraging a dictator to crush the uprising of a people’s revolt … no matter what the final result might be.
That’s not what we’re about.
Obama blew his chance with the Iranian protestors. Nobody cares what he has to say now.

Without a doubt, the MB is behind this. If Egypt is to go Islamic Republic, that leaves one state that befriends Israel. If Egypt folds Jordan will soon follow. Heh Mubarak may not had been the ideal leader, but what awaits in the background, will be much much worse.

DEATH TO AMERICA
http://www.majahden.com/from/showthread.php?t=20
The coming days..
You’ll see what will happen..
Al Qaeda in the Arabic Peninsula..
Can anyone blame Al Qaeda for what it will do the coming days..
I think that it can not be blamed for what it will do to the Americans the coming days..
Do you know why?
Al Qaeda sent to them the first plane carrying the hero Umar Al Farooq, may Allah release him..
America disbursed nearly 40 billion dollars because they were stricken with fear by this blessed operation, and they continued in their arrogance and coercion and did not respond to the demands of Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula..
Then Al Qaeda sent them three air planes.. The heroes succeeded in blowing one of them, and with the two air planes, the prudence of the retarded American idiots, will be clear to the whole world, God willing, and this last operation didn’t cost the heroes money..
And yet America is still arrogant, coercive and stupid..
Then the media network of Al Malahem launched the third Inspire magazine, wherein the brothers declared that they would not leave the U.S. alone until it is economically destroyed..
All this and still the Americans persist in stupidity and they do not know what will happen to them in the coming days..
Dear Americans, do you know what will happen to you in the coming days..
It’s something scary..
It’s something dangerous..
It is something that your retarded intellect can not imagine..
It is terror, destruction and blood and body parts..
It is terrifying..
And even after this, you still wouldn’t have paid for all your crimes..
You are still insisting in killing our children and our women!
You are still insisting in plundering our wealth!
You are still insisting in supporting Israel in killing our brothers and taking our land!
You are still insisting in supporting the corrupt regimes in our country!
Then wait for what will happen to you the coming days.
It is atrocious and most heinous than you can ever imagine.
And know that no one will blame us for what the Mujahideen will do to you, God willing, because we warned you repeatedly, but you were negligent of our warnings..
So therefore wait..
What’s coming is more wretched and more bitter.
*******
From the words of the Shaykh, the Lion, the Mujahid Osama bin Laden, may God protect him:
“The politicians at the White House engaged in injustice on us and continue to support the Israelis, especially in the occupation of our land of Palestine, and they think that America from behind the ocean is safe from the wrath of the oppressed people, till the reaction was explosive in your home land on the eleventh – by grace of Allah – and the lucky one is he who learns from others (mistakes). And it is but fair to trade the same currency and war is a long way, and days turn.
Peace be upon those who follow the true guidance.”
**
In the name of Allah, the most Passionate the most Merciful.
From Osama to Obama.
Peace upon those who follow guidance .. Forth:
“My peace be on those who follow the light of guidance. If our messages to you could be carried by words we wouldn’t have done that by planes.
The message I want to convey to you through the plane of hero Umar Al Farooq, reaffirms a previous message that the heros of 9/11 conveyed to you and it was repeated frequently.The message is that America will never dream of living in peace unless we live it in Palestine. It is unfair that you enjoy a safe life while our brothers in Gaza suffer greatly therefore with Allah’s will our attacks on you will continue as long as you continue to support Israel.”
Shaykh Osama bin Laden (may Allah protect him): “America must not dream and will not even dream a dream of security, if we don’t live it as a reality in Palestine and in the land of the Haramain and in all muslim countries by the will of Allah.”

Earlier it was reported that the quotes by Rand Paul weren’t correct. He was talking about several things we could cut back on while we are in such financial trouble. He was being interviewed by Wolf Blitzer, and Wolf took only part of what he said and kept playing it . No matter what Mr. Paul said, Wolf always came back to reducing aid to Israel. It was a dirty trick by Wolf Blitzer trying to split the Tea Party. Watch out for dirty tricks by the MSM. A liberal interviewing a conservative tea partier???

Barky always supports the side that is the most destructive, the least productive, has contributed the least to humanity/the world, and will likely not have any positive impact or influence on humanity/the world in the future. That this side is often Islamic (or the more righteous Islamic side) says more about the nature of Islam and how Islam is a “useful idiot” of the NWO than it does about Barkey.

Post #3, Kenny, I could not believe this as well when my husband told me this. We are both Jews and I am shocked especially since I thought well of Rand Paul.
john commented:
Obama said similar things about Iran that he did about Egypt, for the record. He is letting events unfold in both places, stating American principles (free expression and so on), and not choosing sides.
What has gotten America into these problems is getting us involved in stuff that just doesn’t concern us. Let’s let them at least have a chance to decide their own destiny. We have too much stuff at home to deal with.
Bobbi commented:
Since the control of the Suez Canal and the shipment of oil will affect the entire world, is it possible that any if the other super powers, e.g., Russia might do about this? After all, Putin et.al. Must be pretty pissed about the airport suicide bombing.
Sandy commented:
In an article this morning in The Telegraph it said Obama worked for 3 years to get regime change in Egypt. Unless the goal is Nuclear War in the ME then why would he want to do this? Stability is the only thing that works in the ME. Carter was wrong on Iran and Bush was wrong on Iraq — now Obama trumps them all by destroying Egypt as a viable nation and Israel’s one ally. While all the dish rags in the media sing his praises — he could potentially lead us into WW3.

No new leader/group will come in and then the next day there will be public executions. Iran became Iran very slowly and never did have any true freedoms of any kind. Before the Shah fell there was stoning after the shah there are stoning. How many stoning are going on in Egypt. The core culture of Egypt might be Islamic but the little freedoms that they do have, they will not be willing to give up any time soon. Iran gained a lot of power over their people during the Iran/Iraq war and the restrictions were tolerated then and became a way of life.
Egyptians will not go as easily to have more Islamic restrictions and as we see the army will not be as ruthless as the republican guard to indiscreetly murder there fellow man in the street.

“Never let a crisis go to waste.” Rahm Emanuel
And the crisis for the U.S. is soon to be $4.00, then $5.00 gasoline if the Suez Canal is compromised. What then? Obama will be shoving his “green” policies down our throats so all of us who drive gas powered vehicles will be forced to purchase one of GM’s “green” cars just to be able to get around.
We have a White House full of incompetents that have no clue about foreign affairs. As I said earlier today, that was proven with Honduras and the G-8 Summits.

That is all OBAMA is. IDEOLOGY and DADDY ISSUE EMOTION.
Obama and his LIBTARD HACKS, have ZERO IDEA nor INTEREST in how to handle FOREIGN POLICY or DIPLOMACY. Obama and his ILK (LIBTARDS), believe that WHATEVER THEY FEEEEEEEL or EMOTE, will come to FRUITION. Obama couldn’t lead a one man parade in his own living room. He is a walking talking BUFFFOOOOOON.
Joanne commented:
The American people were warned about what Obama could accomplish during his presidency, and there were those idiots who said just to wait for the next election, which just passed and now those same idiots are waiting for another election in two years. Sorry too late. Obama is not legitimately the POTUS, and the people of the U.S. should be getting him out on this issue – NOW.
Kenny Solomon commented:
Retire05…… My friend, it’s not incompetence, it’s deliberate. They know exactly what they’re doing.
Between Sunstein’s nudging and the rest of the administration purposely misdirecting and sleight-of-handing everything, we have a real chance of losing the nation within a very VERY short time.
When the merde encounters the venitlateur, you’ll know it, because what’s going on in Egypt right now will look like a company picnic in comparison.

Kenny. Not only are they completely INCOMPETENT, but they are fu@#ing up ON PURPOSE.
It’s not HARD to FU@K up, if that is your plan. It doesn’t take skill. It takes the willingness to DESTROY for your own IDEOLOGY. Anyone can DESTROY. And the goal of Obama and his Sunstein HACKS, is to DESTROY, so as to REBUILD. The LATTER is where their INCOMPETENCE becomes a problem. The WORLD they want to CREATE cannot exist. EVEN IF IT COULD, these fu@#tards couldn’t manage a Popcorn stand by the Cub Scouts.
jainphx commented:
The world is coming apart at the seams and Obama does absolutely nothing. Actually his doing nothing is the plan, the Mid East will go militant Islamic, and Obama quietly cheers. Everything he has done has hurried this moment. Stop oil drilling in ALL of America, making us a sitting duck for the destruction coming. Can anyone here say this is not the plan. We will be lucky to have oil only go to $5.00 a gallon. Some in this country are just to stupid to tie their own shoes. Thank you 52% you have brought America to the verge of destruction. CAN WE AFFORD TO WAIT two more years. Impeach him and turn this traitor cadre out fast.
jewishodysseus commented:
Elections have consequences. In 2008, the American people handed over 100% of the executive, CinC authority of this country to a man who had never hid his contempt for our country and admiration for its enemies. He was the real-life Manchurian Candidate.
No-one in the media, nor least of all John McCain, ever pointed out that:
1–the world is a dangerous place;
2–there are a lot of nasty political trends that wd gladly see America liquidated, by nuke or civil war;
3–that in such a world, it wd be absolute madness to hand over control of our foreign policy to a man who wd not-so-subtly pull his punches/take a dive/throw the game/betray our country to the deepest degree possible.
But hand it over they–”we”–did.
Do we have any exhibits in evidence of Obama’s betrayal? Well…
Exhibit A: Insult England;
Exhibit B: Attempt to destabilize Israel;
Exhibit C: Re-stabilize Ahmedinejad (the BIG stick against Israel);
Exhibit D: Strengthen Hezbollah (the little stick against Israel);
Exhibit E: Attempt to prop up radical leftist Zelaya in Honduras (failed, way to go Honduras!);
Exhibit F: Prop up and legitimize every other radical leftist govt in Latin America (Chavez, Ortega, Morales);
Exhibit G: Turn a green light to the islamization of once-secular Turkey, and not lift a finger to prevent it from allying with Iran;
Exhibit H: And now the bumbling “response” to the crisis in Egypt, which resembles nothing so much as a drunk trying to put out a kitchen fire by dousing it with gasoline. “Gee, sure was bad luck, but now the imams are running Egypt…Shore is a shame, we did THE BEST WE COULD!!”
This is treason cloaked as incompetence, pure and simple.
The Free Officers regime has ruled Egypt for 58 years…in fact, they have been the only thing resembling an Egyptian government in post-Pharaohnic history. They were cruel and corrupt, but nowhere near as cruel and corrupt as their successors will be. And Obama knows this, but he doesn’t care–the important thing is to install an ANTI-American despotism there.
And the Left will deny any responsibility–just like they had none for the Bolshevik takeover, nor Mao’s, nor Castro’s, nor Ho Chi Minh, nor Pol Pot, nor the Sandinistas, nor Khomeini, nor Hamas, nor Hesbullah, nor…

What USA should do is say precisely to Egyptians in what conditions USA will cooperate with new power. If they help Hamas, cooperate with Islamic thugs in Tehran and Lebanon, denounce Camp David or bring the armored Divisions to Sinai they turn into USA enemies. Of course i don’t hope Obama have balls to do anything.

no, but i was just reading the following re: Suleiman
[2 pm: I could be wrong, but when you name your hard-line chief of intelligence as your “vice president,” as Mubarak just did, it’s probably not a sign that you’re looking to make any deals. Omar Suleiman ain’t no softie. ABC News mined the Wikileaks cables for some dirt on Suleiman, and here’s one quote. The cable says:
[Suleiman’s] overarching regional goal was combating radicalism,
especially in Gaza, Iran, and Sudan…. Radicalism in Gaza posed a
particularly serious threat to Egyptian national security. Suleiman
said Egypt must “confront” Iranian attempts to smuggle arms to
Gaza and stop arms smuggling through Egyptian territory. “Egypt
is circled by radicalism,” he continued.]

We were told. Here’s one of many, many examples.
“1 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee.
2 For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city.
3 Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.
4 And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south.
5 And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the LORD my God shall come, and all the saints with thee.”
Israel’s position at the center of all this is not political. It’s Biblical, and it always has been. The nations of the world, all of them (that includes the USA), will attack Israel. They will then be utterly destroyed. You’d be wise to put your hope in Christ, sooner rather than later.

Jainphyx. Obama and his HACKS are calculating. Sunstein, Van Jones, Kevin Jennings and Carole Browner are FREAKS. Their goals and Obamas are not even necessarily the same. THe problem is, that THEY ARE ALL MARXISTS. We have to understand that MARXISM can show it’s face as HOPE AND CHANGE. Rapists often LULL their VICTIMS.

‘Update: CNN’s Wolf Blitzer is a scumbag, he completely tried to turn this into a story about Israel when in fact it wasn’t, not even close but he wouldn’t let it go. Paul was not singling them out, in fact he took a much harder line with the Islamic states in the region. The MSM ran with the Israel angle as a way of discrediting Rand Paul with conservatives. Disgraceful, truly disgraceful.

What USA should do is say precisely to Egyptians in what conditions USA will cooperate with new power.
********
I disagree. The U.S. should immediately turn off the middle east money faucet to all but to our ally Israel. Those words only and after that ACTIONS only. Obama said, “The future of Egypt is in the hands of the people.”
Christians should be allowed to emigrate, but no Muslims. We’re way over our Muzzie quota. Who wants to bet that Obama’s next move is importing more Democrat voters? A crisis opportunity.
Muslims are the biggest enemies of other Muslims. What’s the quote about interfering when your enemy is about to fall on his sword? The Muslim world is imploding into full-blown sharia law. Qur’an 9:111: “…and the greatest glory is to kill and be killed for Allah.”
Obama is taking notes on shutting down the internet and cell phones. His day is coming.

Gus I’m torn between him being an idiot and a genius. After all what more could he do to screw us and the world? Either he is a figure head for some very evil people, or he’s doing it all on his own. Could all of this be by accident? I can’t bring myself to believe in randomness. I tend to agree with Taqiyyotomist, it’s happening just as predicted, but with that scenario we win, Thanks be to G-D.

jainphx — It doesn’t really matter if he’s an idiot or a genious — he is not the person to lead this country in these times. His lack of experience says it all. I would like to see investigations up the wazoo which will force him to resign. HEY MA TOP OF THE WORLD is the line which Jimmy Cagney used in White Heat 1947 smiling while he burns. While that may suit Obama the rest of us are tired of living in his fantasies.

re: better.. I agree. We’ll have to see how the media and Zero will treat el-baradei, or is that too predictable?
‘With Egypt in flames and the rioters calling for the head of their dictator, Hosni Mubarak, the question becomes who will replace him should he fall. We all know that the Muslim Brotherhood would be a disaster for both Egypt, Israel and the West. But what about Mohammed El-Baradei, the former head of the IAEA who has entered Egyptian politics as an opponent of Mubarak. While El-Baradei seems to be on friendly terms with Obama, the truth is that he is an Islamist tied directly to the Brotherhood and Iran and, further, that he possesses a distinct animus towards Israel.
To understand El-Baradie’s danger to a secular, democratic Egypt, a little background on Egyptian politics and the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood is necessary for context.’…

Redwine commented:
If Egypt falls to the Muslim Brotherhood, and they close the Suez Canal to traffic, especially to Israeli shipping, Israel will respond as they did in ’67 when Egypt made the same move. The stakes are higher now than they were in ’67 – what with Lebanon and the heavily armed Iranian-backed Hizballah in the driver’s seat to the north. I also understand that the unrest has spread not only to Jordan, but to Syria as well.
Syrians are planning a “day of rage” for Feb. 5 – a possible commemoration of the slaughter of 20,000 citizens (probably Muslim Brotherhood) in the city of Hama on Feb. 2, 1982, by Hafez al-Assad, the father of the current chinless dictator. Baby Bashir’s regime is already disrupting internet service.

jainx and bg: I’m not always able to utilize many of the links bg provides because I’m not often able to view and hear video clips. Reading text is more suitable for my situation. However, I’m somewhat knowledgeable about the NWO stuff. The way I see it, those at the very top are using both the Marxists and Islam to get rid of the rest of us. If and when those two turn on one another and against their own, too, all the better for those at the top. They’ll be cozy and warm in their bunkers with their toys and supplies when things get really nasty everywhere.

chili palmer commented:
For the record, President Bush was worse than Obama on this. He pressured Mubarak to open the elections (to the burgeoning Brotherhood), at one point threatened to withhold aid if an opponent wasn’t released from jail. Mubarak finally relented, and by 2005 a good number of Brotherhoods were elected, all signs showing even greater increases. At that point, Mubarak said no thanks, and closed the elections. This was written about in BBC articles and by Eli Lake in the Wash. Times. Let’s see, we’ve got Chris Christie now who appointed an Islamist judge. I don’t mean to be negative but where are we going to get a leader who isn’t out to make us disappear?

The Islamist leader of Tunisia has returned from exile. He has been living in London for 20 years, and I feel quite confident in assuming that he was living quite comfortably as an “asylum seeker” and also as a generously subsidized guest of the state.
I saw a story on USA Today saying that it would be a “knee jerk” reaction to think fundamentalist Islam would emerge supreme in Egypt. I say it is naive to assume otherwise.

Andreas K. commented:
They have islam. Case closed.
Democracy doesn’t work with islam. Whatever “reforms” may come, they won’t hold. Democracy is based on the concept that all votes are equal. All voices are equal. The koran and sharia law prohibit that. And both koran and sharia law are pillars of islam.
Under sharia law, under islam, a mohammedan can’t be equal to an infidel. It’s not possible, since infidels, by sharia law, are subhumans.
Egypt will fall to islam. It has NOTHING to resist this cancer. Any resistance by non-mohammedans in Egypt will be irrelevant or wiped out quickly, if people will even dare to resist.
We’re back in the 1930s. All of this has happened before, just with different names and places. But the plot of this “play” is always the same. And all of it will happen again.

[The roots of our democracy can be traced to England, and to its Parliament -- and so can the roots of this organization. In June of 1982, President Ronald Reagan spoke at Westminster Palace and declared, the turning point had arrived in history. He argued that Soviet communism had failed, precisely because it did not respect its own people -- their creativity, their genius and their rights.
President Reagan said that the day of Soviet tyranny was passing, that freedom had a momentum which would not be halted. He gave this organization its mandate: to add to the momentum of freedom across the world. Your mandate was important 20 years ago; it is equally important today...
[..]
We’ve witnessed, in little over a generation, the swiftest advance of freedom in the 2,500 year story of democracy. Historians in the future will offer their own explanations for why this happened. Yet we already know some of the reasons they will cite. It is no accident that the rise of so many democracies took place in a time when the world’s most influential nation was itself a democracy…
[..]
Our commitment to democracy is also tested in the Middle East, which is my focus today, and must be a focus of American policy for decades to come. In many nations of the Middle East — countries of great strategic importance — democracy has not yet taken root. And the questions arise: Are the peoples of the Middle East somehow beyond the reach of liberty? Are millions of men and women and children condemned by history or culture to live in despotism? Are they alone never to know freedom, and never even to have a choice in the matter? I, for one, do not believe it. I believe every person has the ability and the right to be free…
[..]
The great and proud nation of Egypt has shown the way toward peace in the Middle East, and now should show the way toward democracy in the Middle East. Champions of democracy in the region understand that democracy is not perfect, it is not the path to utopia, but it’s the only path to national success and dignity.]
well this old fart listened, and the Middle Eastern youth evidently heard..
