“The company has a multi-billion dollar agreement the Israel Electric Corporation (IEC). Last month, a major agreement was also signed between EMG and Israel Corporation Ltd., Israel’s largest holding company.

Salem was joined by dozens of other wealthy Egyptian and Arab business leaders who crowded aboard 19 private jets Saturday at Cairo Airport, an unnamed official told AP.”

More signs that this is a planned event by leftist commies and Islamists(of which Obama is one or both). Now he can usher in a ‘marxist caliphate’ in the heart of the Middle East to counter Bush’s true democracy efforts in Iraq. Hey..I wonder if GE will get some cozy fascist deal in Egypt now brokered by Obama and his marxist Islamic buds?

IMPEACH!! It’s TIME..WAY PAST TIME!

Enough to export to Europe and Egypt, but they are out of time to set up the pipeline infrastructure...
