I’m just concerned about Israel should a democratic Egyptian government turn out to be made up of radicalized Muslims. We need to defend Israel at all costs if our upsetting the balance there leads to an Egyptian gov’t that decides to dump its alliance with the Israelis.
Hate to say it but I think we’d be better off with Mubarek in there. Most Muslim countries just aren’t ready for democracy. When you’re stuck in the eleventh century, culturally and socially, twenty-first century governments might not really be the answer.
As we found out in Iran.
