It’s being reported in the Telegraph that the activist who started the uprising in Egypt was here and being supported by the U.S. and went back in Dec. 2008.
“The American Embassy in Cairo helped a young dissident attend a US-sponsored summit for activists in New York, while working to keep his identity secret from Egyptian state police.”
There are a few nagging questions about this. Who was working in the American Embassy in Cairo at that time? Why was the UN sponsoring a ‘summit for activists’? What type of activism? Anyone have a video of the ‘summit’? Pres. Bush was on his way out in 2008. How could he keep this going?
What effect to this situation do you think these activists had?
