I’m convinced obama wanted this to happen he wants Mubarek out. The World Bank, the CIA had reports about the food situation as well. You know what they say control the food control the people. There’s more then one way to control the food, i.e., price. That foreign aid we shouldn’t be forced to give in the first place at least could have been doled out in food. Since we can’t just wipe these monsters that treat women like that from the face of the Earth a real leader would have been watching this situation and worked with other world leaders to see that it didn’t get out of hand. Sarkozy even met with obama about food inflation. That ignorant Geithner said inflation’s not a problem.
