Perhaps the whole delegation should have stayed in Egypt for a couple of weeks, and we would no longer worry about having to put up with their attempts to completely traduce and betray our nations foreign policy, which even Clintonian elements within the CIA have attempted ( Plame/Wilson).
The president must respond to these repeated "coupe" attempts. He has the Logan Act and MUST use it immediately.
We are at a point when War can only be waged by democrats, who have ruined our nations initiatives in Vietnam, South America: Iran-Contra: ( result, massive illegal alien influx into the USA), and now in Iraq.
The Dems MUST stand down, or be taken into custody and tried.
From the article :
... Jon Alterman, a Mideast specialist at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington, said Bush administration officials may have avoided meeting Muslim Brotherhood members because it could strain relations with the secular Egyptian government, one of the closest U.S. allies in the Arab world.From another article on CIA funding of leftist agitprop: A grant of $250,000 to the Center for Strategic and International Studies, known as CSIS, headed by former Clinton administration Deputy Defense Secretary John Hamre -------- "How the CIA Funds Anti-Bush Propaganda ," by Bill Gertz, Frontpagemag.com, September 14, 2004
"The difficulty when it gets to Egypt is that the Brotherhood is not a legal group within Egypt and the U.S. government is wary of violating laws in countries in which it operates," he told The Associated Press on Saturday.
"The larger constraint on our willingness to meet the Brotherhood is the Egyptian government's unease with our government's meeting with the Brotherhood."...
"There's been a growing sense in Washington over 20 years that Islamic politics are here to stay, and the U.S. interest in promoting democracy around the world means we should be engaging with a growing number of actors," Alterman said.
CSIS brings to mind Brzezinski, Scowcroft, Zinni and Kissinger.
