EDITORIAL: Egypt’s blood on Obama’s hands?--White House is fanning flames of Islamic revolution
The Washington Times ^ | February 2, 2011 | Editorial

Posted on 02/02/2011 2:40:24 PM PST by jazusamo

President Obama is signaling the Egyptian opposition that their time has come. In a terse statement last night, Mr. Obama announced a “moment of transformation” had arrived in Egypt, “the status quo is not sustainable” and a new government must begin to form “now.” An administration official later reiterated, “the key part of the statement was ‘now.’ ” Today the formerly peaceful protests in Egypt turned violent. It turns out that words do have consequences.

Egypt is at a crossroads, a time of suspense when change could come gradually and peacefully, or quickly with maximum instability. The White House has chosen to back the latter course, which will play into the hands of the best organized, most radical factions, which in this case is the America-hating Muslim Brotherhood.

The Obama administration is strangely adamant that Muslim religious parties have to play a key role in the new government, and U.S. officials reportedly are reaching out to the Muslim Brotherhood behind the scenes. White House wishes aside, an Islamist government is not in Egypt’s interest and certainly not in the interest of the United States. The Muslim Brotherhood seeks to increase the influence of shariah worldwide and reverse the progress Egypt has made in becoming a more Western, more secular state. Its foreign policy was succinctly summed up by brotherhood leader Muhammad Ghannem, who said the Egyptian people should “be prepared for a war against Israel.” None of this will be good for America, the Mideast or the world.

The blood of the whole world is going to be on Obama’s hands.

This jerk is the grim reaper.

Agreed. He’s working overtime to support those 1.6 Billion muslims.

Unfortunately, if you went to the major population centers were Obama’s voters live, they couldn't find Egypt on a world map let alone pronounce it.

If Obama wants to turn over the ME to radical Islam ramrodded by Iran, it's OK because he's smart and clean and articulate and can read a teleprompter. What's the big deal?

That Israel, the only democratic country in the ME, is to be surrounded by enemies without (and Palestinians within) that want to destroy the country and exterminate the Jews, doesn't seem to bother many Americans. This is particularly true of the American Jewish community that are serving as Judenrat for the antisemitic Barry Obama. American blacks seem to be following in lockstep with Barry's policies.

Barry is setting up the dominoes for a nuclear war in the ME.

I totally agree. Obama is supporting the racidal Muslims of the Muslim Brotherhood while demanding the President of Egypt to leave.

Obama is just supporting his kin.

But he’s not a muslim.
