Muslim demonstrators display placards during a rally to protest against a Koran-burning incident in Afghanistan, outside the U.S. embassy in Kuala Lumpur February 24, 2012. U.S. President Barack Obama apologized on Thursday for the burning of copies of the Islam’s holy book on a US base in Afghanistan, an incident that has triggered far more outcry than another shocking incident: the emergence of a video last month showing Marines urinating on the corpses of what appear to be dead Taliban fighters.

A senior Egyptian Parliamentarian called on Arab countries to protest the Bagram koran burnings by breaking ties with the United States.
Fars News reported:

A senior Egyptian legislator called on the Arab countries to voice their protest at the desecration of the Holy Quran at a US base in Afghanistan by cutting relations with Washington.

“The US militaries’ burning of Quran is an insult to Islam and Muslims and a new position should be adopted against the US administration which has done nothing but apologizing,” Ahmad Abdul-Al told FNA on Tuesday.

He called on all parliaments of the Arab states to cut relations with Washington until the culprits of this action are tried and Muslims’ rights are restored.

In relevant remarks, a prominent Iranian Islamist organization had earlier lashed out at the Muslim world’s silence on the burning of the Muslims’ Holy Book by American soldiers in Afghanistan, and urged the Muslim Ummah to show a strong and extensive reaction to the sacrilege of Islamic values.

“The Muslim world’s silence on the US soldiers (provocative) act in Afghanistan is not justifiable,” the International Union of Unified Ummah (Community) said in a statement on Monday, and condemned the desecration of the Muslims’ holy Book.

    The Egyptians can piss up a rope.I will miss that cranky old Museum curator guy and his show on Egyptian artifacts but it would be a fair trade off in saving the billions we give to them now and them cutting ties with us.

    The downside would be that those billions will either be funneled into the unions or bogus, unsustainable green companies that belong to friends and families of our current regime.

    On second thought just keep giving the money to the Egyptians.

    [In 1933 the German establishment thought it could use Hitler to restore a modicum of order to the confused and confusing Weimar Republic. In fact, Hitler did strengthen the German establishment, but not exactly in the way the bankers and businessmen had wanted; and now, fifty years later, it is clear who was using whom. Nevertheless, the Western World did not complain in 1933 because Hitler, though a fascist and a totalitarian, was seen, like countless American puppet dictators today, as someone who leaves the established order in place.]

    Paul agree..

    [Ron Paul proposed to put a bunch of Soros funded think tank experts in charge of dismantling the US military. Think about that for a moment. And then think about it again. Ron Paul supporters can see conspiracies in a glass of water, can they see anything wrong with this picture? Can they see anything wrong with having a man from a group that was investigated for its Communist ties in the driver's seat on national defense?]

    Oh please, please, please can we break ties with Muslim countries like Egypt??? Please!!!

    If we can it will save us billions of dollars a year because we are sending Egypt a billion dollars a year in foreign aid!! Foreign aid! Like they need our foreign aid! Let’s cut off all foreign aid to all these countries because we’re already buying their oil at a steep price, and we’re sending them our tax payers money and what money our businesses are making, for what? Tell me again, why are we sending a rich country like Egypt “aid”? Was it for Mubarric military and government operations? I know we were sending him millions in military equipment every year. He did have some good pilots who flew F-16′s.

    Obama to Cut Health Benefits for Active, Retired Military

    [Significantly, the plan calls for increases on premiums, eventually rising
    to more than three times the current levels. As an example, a retired
    Army colonel with a family currently paying $460 a year for healthcare
    will pay $2,048.

    But more concerning is the military's fear that the rift between uniform
    and ununiformed personnel could undermine recruiting efforts and
    retention.

    “We shouldn’t ask our military to pay our bills when we aren’t willing to
    impose a similar hardship on the rest of the population,” Rep. Howard
    “Buck” McKeon, chairman of the House Armed Services Committee and
    a Republican from California, said in a statement to the Beacon. “We
    can’t keep asking those who have given so much to give that much more.”

    Administration officials reportedly told Congress that part of the goal is
    to force retirees to reduce their involvement in Tricare and eventually
    use alternatives under Obamacare.]

    warned this, and much more, was coming several times, and
    many moons ago, but what does a crazy old lady know..     :-(

    Islam And Islamism: The New York Times’ Misinformation Campaign

    [Just last week, in fact, in yet another story filled with misinformation and paradox, the New York Times — that newspaper which evidently viewed the plans of a radical Muslim to bomb the U.S. Capitol as being less than “fit to print” — has confused Islam with Islamism, inadvertently defending a school of the religion even the majority of American Muslims reject. They should know better by now.

    According to the Times, a new organization in Chicago, Gain Peace, has launched an advertising campaign aimed at defending Islam against attacks. In itself, this is fully understandable and would be laudable — were it not for the fact that among the schools of Islam Gain Peace defends is one which stands against American democratic values. Worse, the organization the Times cites (again) on the issue — and who supports the Gain Peace project — is the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR). In case anyone has forgotten (and evidently the Times editors have), CAIR has been named an “unindicted co-conspirator” in the largest terrorism funding case in American history; the FBI no longer recognizes the group as a legitimate representative of American Muslims, and the U.S. government overall, including our liberal Democratic president, has banned it from involvement with government policy and investigations.

    That’s pretty powerful stuff. It’s certainly powerful enough that the New York Times should think twice about using CAIR as its resource (and its only resource) when speaking about Islam in America.

    But it doesn’t. And so when reporting on the proposed expulsion of CAIR from Illinois’ “leading immigrant support group” due to its ties to Hamas, the Times sympathetically suggests its agreement with CAIR’s assessment of the situation: “a descent into anti-Muslim hysteria.”

    No, it’s not.]

    74 lousy Egyptian pounds per person per year.

    The US does not provide us with money that we egyptians need, it provides it to keep friendly ties between the two countries and keep the peace with Israel.
