If Egypt should fall, it will mark the beginning of the end for what little remaining stability there is in the Middle East. Jordan is facing similar unrest, as is Algeria and Yemen. Lebanon and Tunisia fell in January. It is highly unlikely that these events are unrelated. A combination of leftist and Islamist forces provoked the protests, and we are likely looking at a ring of radical Islamic states rising up to surround Israel.
Once their power is solidified, they will combine forces to attack Israel. In fact, the Muslim Brotherhood has already said that Egypt should prepare for war with Israel. If Israel falls, the United States will stand alone in a sea of virulent enemies and impotent allies.
So who does Obama support, Mubarak or his enemies?
Obama wasted no time in telling us. He supports Mubaraks opponents, and probably has been all along. The Los Angeles Times reported on Sunday that the Obama administration favors a role for the Muslim Brotherhood in a new Egyptian government.
The Muslim Brotherhood, the oldest extremist Muslim organization, is behind practically every Muslim terrorist organization ever formed. And while they may have publicly renounced violence as the LA Times article claims, internal documents tell a completely different picture.
And if that werent bad enough, Obamas latest comment to Egypts leader is that an orderly transition must begin now. (Ed.: Obama repeated his demand more stridently on Sunday, saying "The U.S. can't forcefully dictate, but what we can do is say the time is now for you to start making a change in your country.")

THX. THX.

Barry will be remembered as the US president who golfed while the middle east became an Islamic hell.
...depends...
He could be the one who made the fall of Israel possible. If you are Islamic, that makes him a hero.
After the only mideastern democracy falls, then it is us who are next.
See what happens when a muslim occupies the most powerful seat un the US.
Yes, one man can change the world.
This guy wasn’t afraid...
“Sixty years of Western nations excusing and accommodating the lack of freedom in the Middle East did nothing to make us safe - because in the long run, stability cannot be purchased at the expense of liberty. As long as the Middle East remains a place where freedom does not flourish, it will remain a place of stagnation, resentment and violence ready for export.” President George W. Bush
yep, cuzz then he would unlesh the might of the US on Israel.
Remember, if the winds turn ugly for Islam, he will stand with them.

And behold, I saw the Thin, Greying Kenyan remove the first seal...
That lack of freedom in the Middle East is the result of Islam.
You remember Islam: the "religion of peace" - tom
Indonesia is also starting to destabilize.
Lack of freedom is the result of government control over the masses, Islam is a tool.
Indonesians are speaking out over food prices, it has nothing to do with religion. The government must react to the will of the people. Thats a democracy.
>>If Israel falls,<<
Not likely. More likely is that if things really are as the author sees it then we are entering Ezekiel 39.
Spoiler alert: Israel wins.

Everybody lighten up, none of this is important. We have wind power. And solar power. Bicyles and high speed trains.
Lots of carbon here too, for a common sense leader to develop.
But the collapse of the ME, and I'm not convinced, goes beyond power.
So who does Obama support, Mubarak or his enemies? Obama wasted no time in telling us. He supports Mubarak's opponents, and probably has been all along.Thanks unspun.
