Obama is a Neo Liberal and is under the belief that the political winds (according to the media) are blowing in favor of the “protesters”. This is how Obama operates. He sees this thing as a Liberal Socialist Democracy forming.
He also understands that they will later vote in Islamo Marxism by default. And he fully wants this to happen.
The article posted by SEMom at #219 (?) explains a little more of the economic background and another reason (aside from being a Muslim) that Obama is supporting the MB.
Apparently Egypt actually had a core of “technocrats” in the government who were trying to transition from an economy that was completely controlled and where everyone (particularly the poor) lived from what the government decided to give them to one that was basically a functioning capitalist economy. This, naturally, caused unrest as subsidies were cut back and people suddenly realized that if they wanted something, they had to work for it. The author feels that one of the results of this is that the centralized, government controlled (socialist) economy will now be reinstated with a vengeance, and in fact many of the “pro-democracy” protesters were actually calling for that and of course the MB is very pro-socialist. And we all know where Obama’s miserable excuse for a heart lies.
