Folks, please...
This is Iran all over again, and in five nations that are friendly with the West. Do you not see a pattern here?
No Mubarak isn’t perfection, be there are worse things out there.
You are pleading Jimmy Carter’s old case from the 70s. That’s a massive mistake.
The alternative to Mubarak will be much worse.
The Shah of Iran was much better (for us, the region, hell the whole world) than the Ayatollah.
This is not good.
It could lead to war with Israel. It could lead to gas shortages and exploding commodity prices, there are so many potentially bad outcomes.
This is scary.
