The US Foreign Policy is patterned after the time-tested game plan of christian missionaries. These savages are too ignorant to know what's good for them. We need to save them from themselves.
Was it any of our business to call the Egyptian protesters "an inspiration", and that Mubarak should allow for a "transistions"? Say what you want, but the facts say that Obama has twice now failed to validate the concerns of the Iranian people against the mullahs. Somebody please try to refute this statement.
So an Islamist regime is jailing and shooting protesters because they are too Islamist? Sorry, but that is an idiotic post.
So, the Egyptian military junta is now in control of the country. Any reports from Egypt lately? The 24/7 US media coverage suddenly ceased.
It's your post so I'll not argue the point. More accurately, Islamists are protesting a government that has strayed from Islamist ideals. Much like our government, and most governments, they have been deceiving and manipulating their people using religion and patriotism as a veil. Unfortunately for the protesters, Iran has an elite military that will crush them like bugs.
True. Apparently, he has 'inspired' Iranians to protest their government. Now those protesters are being shot and jailed. When does our President make a week-long drama about Iran, and how the mullahs and their puppet president should step aside?
Not refuting whether or not protesters will get crushed, but to compare Iran's military to Egypt's isn't favorable to Iran.
So did Egypt's military. Yet, they didn't have to crush their citizens like bugs to enact at least a cosmetic change of leadership.
In terms of willingness to slaughter their citizens, Iran's military wins hands down. Egypt's military didn't exactly have Mubarak's back, appearing to side with the protesters. It won't be too long before we see the same game played out here in the states. I wonder how far the DHS and FEMA are willing to go in suppressing the people's will. Will BrianfromWA be brought in to round us all up for the camps? Will he obey orders when told to shoot curfew breakers?
One day you're going to have to explain your black heliocopter distrust of government authority with your embrace of the government encroaching more and more into our daily lives. Me thinks, however, that your posts are mostly an act and you don't mean most of what you write.
