Obama to Egyptian Army: Remove Mubarak now, start transition
Debka File ^ | 2 February, 2011

Posted on 02/02/2011 7:13:27 PM PST by Errant

Wednesday, Feb. 2, President Barack Obama delivered an ultimatum to Egyptian Vice President Omar Suleiman and the army and security chiefs: Mubarak must be removed in the coming hours or else US aid to Egypt will be cut off, debkafile's Washington sources exclusively report. Pressure on the Egyptian armed forces to oust the president forthwith was further applied by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton who called Vice President Omar Suleiman, US Defense Secretary Robert Gates who called Egyptian defense minister Mohamed Tantawi, and US armed forces chief Adm. Mike Mullen in a telephone call to the Egyptian chief of staff Gen. Sami Enan.,

French President Nicolas Sarkozy, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and UK Prime Minister David Cameron were recruited earlier to lean hard on Egyptian army chiefs to bring Mubarak's presidency to an end in the coming hours.

So you think the Islamic terrorists should run Egypt?

You think Obama should call for the removal of a president who was elected by the people of his country?

You think Obama should ignore the fact that Egypt has a constitution and elections and have the army take over?

No wonder we are hated.

In my opinion, trash from “Debka” shouldn’t even be allowed on FR. All it does is muddy the waters, in a time when the utmost clarity is required.

This guy is infuriating. The Israelis say that the Egyptian ambassador said on television that Obama had privately told him that he was and still is a Muslim who supports “the Muslim agenda”. That would be worldwide sharia and the destruction of the US and Israel. He said Obama said world Muslims should give him some time to get healthcare reform passed and then he would start in on the Muslim agenda.

The only promise this enemy combatatant who occupies our White House has ever kept.

You're certainly welcome to your opinion, but I see you couldn't resist having a look.

Debka on occasion, probably due to inside sources, beats the competition.

If this is true, it is clearly the most stupid act of ANY executive, at any level, any time.

Sure, it is OK if we want him out. But I dont think we really need to tell the Army to do it. And then be stupid enough to let someone leak it? The masses on the ground will kill us.

Perhaps we saw the country leaning the wrong way....

That is what I noticed also. They swallowed the “This is a uprising of the people to get rid of a tyrant” bullshit put out by the main stream medis hook, line, and sinker. nothing could be further from the truth. This is an Iranian style revolution. It is encouraged,supported,and aided and abetted by obama administration.

In about 6 months from now when the Suez Canal is closed and gas is $10.00 a gallon, ask them how they like it now.

Why do people in this country feel it is okay to meddle in the affairs of other countries?

We did it in Vietnam, we did it in Iran, we did it in Iraq.

What right do we have? Do we think we know more than the people of these other countries?

He was gone anyway. How much longer do you think he would have held on, on his own.

Again, it just shows the rest of the world we can try to buy whatever we want.

Keep your F’in nose out of this stuff. Cut em off and let them hang. But don’t tell the rest of the world you are doing it.

The people will ask, Why now? Why not twenty years ago?

We are so screwed.

Who do you wish in place of Mubarak?

Who do you think will replace Mubarak?

See #1 comment.

IMO, it's a dumb move and not out of character for Obama. Hence, believable even if this bit of news is from Debka.

Its not so much meddling. It is getting yourself in so deep that you cannot get out.

And now, we “rush to the side of the people?” BS.

In the end, a lot of people are going to die. Not just be upset or angry. I dont think the media folks understand how serious this is—not just to us, but to the folks in the streets.

There is a reason they hate us. And it has nothing to do with religion.

I “couldn’t resist having a look” because of the provocative headline, which serves no purpose but to muddy the waters.

By the way, a couple of teenagers who live in their mothers’ basements don’t have “inside sources.” Quit fooling yourself.

Aside from the Chinese coming to the aid of Iraq, they are not THAT far off. In fact lately, they have been early to the game on some issues.

It will still be America's and Israel's fault, according to them. Count on it.
