As we were overwhelmed with MSM reports with Palin being connected and responsible for the Arizona shootings, followed by the vague dots connecting Republicans and the Tea Party to the same Psycho crime in Tuscon, Arizona.....One has to ask the question about the Bush Doctrine and intolerance of the Saddam Hussein Dictator in Iraq, and maybe we need to start connecting dots from Bush's Iraqi Freedom to Egypt's people in the streets of downtown Cairo ?
Just as the Tucson, Ariz., Safeway shootings were connected because Giffords and other victims were at a Democrat function, lets connect Bush and his Republican leadership in the Mid East to the Egyption revolution that is ongoing in the Mid East.
Lets hear some George Bush quotes on Iraq and freedom in the Mid East. Lets build some dots that have a more solid connectivity from BUSH to EGYPT, than the vague disappearing dots from Arizona to Palin and the Tea Party 'revolution'.
Is it not too bad Bush wasn't President when the People of Iran took to the streets. Obama has suddenly discovered Reagan, and its beginning to sound vaguely like Obama is discovering the results of Bush's work in the Mid East.
Bush has nothing to do with the islamomarxist uprising in the mideast.
Meaningless. Obama is in campaign mode which means he's channeling whatever votes he thinks he can get. It has nothing to do with rethinking foreign or domestic policy.
Ditto.
The left knows and intends for this to cause serious pain around the globe and they’re setting Bush up to take the blame.
Just like their newfound love of Reagan.
I agree.
We have yet to see if the Egypt revolution is going to be defined as an “Islamomarxist”, those dots are not there to connect as of yet, its just a recent guess.
On paper, “The People’s Assembly” is a part of the Egyptian government, and it may play a larger part in the future, larger than the 5% population of the “Islamomarxists” can possibly hope to play. Hamas teaches lessons of what can happen when a country is used for something other than the will of the majority. It isn’t a pretty sight.
Besides, the Egyptian Army defeated the Isralis already (don’t tell an Egyptian they didn’t win)
“Is it not too bad Bush wasn’t President when the People of Iran took to the streets.”
He was.
After we invaded Iraq and destroyed Saddam, every Islamic dictator from the Sudanese and Khadaffi to the mad mullahs were quaking in their boots. There were massive student riots in Iran.
But instead of moving forward and destroying the other fanatic leaders in the area and then pulling out, Bush got us bogged down in a long, fruitless, expensive and bloody occupation in Afghanistan and Iraq in an attempt to make a purse out of a sow’s ear by westernizing these maniacs.
The jury is still out with Egypt. There is always hope that the Muslim brotherhood will not control the new government. But the history of popular “democratic” movements in Islamdom does not indicate this is likely. And Bush and his administration were fixated on the idea that these maniacs really wanted a western style democracy - something most of them are totally clueless about and something that opposes everything they believe in .
Dot one, Government by military dictatorship. Dot two, Government by thoeological (Islamic)) dictatorship. connect them. That’s your chice in Islamic countries.
I didn’t accuse Obama of Re-thinking, or even Thinking...Obama is “discovering”, and the discovery is that rocks are being thrown in Egypt, and some of them are landing too close to his foreign policy.
An Islamic Marxist called the WH at 3:00 AM, and Hillary, a woman, answered the phone. In the world of Mohammed, that’s shows weakness. Obama is voided once more, but I would like him to travel to egypt and make a campaign speech again, right now would be a good time.
I wonder where the expression: “Sticks close as a Brother”, comes from?
Hmmnn?
No, my point is that Obama isn’t ‘discovering’. It’s simply a political move because the 2012 election season has begun. To say he’s ‘discovering’ is giving him too much credit for being open to ideas.
And the idea that the Bush doctrine is somewhat responsible for what’s happening in Egypt also gives too much credit for American influence in Islamic countries. What’s happening there is fueled by Muslim extremism. There are those who lean toward freedom to be sure. But they’re not the movers and shakers. So, just because there’s a revolution in an area that Bush’s doctrine was aimed at, it doesn’t mean that doctrine is in play.
IMHO, Bush has less to do with it than 0bama and that’s very little. Ditto Bill Ayres, George Soros, the Iranians, the Israelis and the NWO.
What does that leave? Egyptians perceived the lion is old and weak, and they don’t care for old and weak in a strongman.
Best guess: another strongman will float to the top, aided by military connections. Same old.
Egyptians tolerate muslim fanatics because they’re intellectually cowed by them, but they don’t wish to be ruled by them.
It’s foolish to make any assumptions that these “freedom movements” are going to be a good thing. Likewise, it;s foolish to assume Iraq will be a democracy in 10 years.
Iraq ia an Islamic republic and a living hell for Christians.
Bush gathered a consensus among the moderate Arabs, conquered Baghdad and upset the applecart of the Euros and the old order.
Business is what matters. Good business, good life.
The desire for good life will prevail in spite of those who are hung up on the past and the religion that goes with it
“We seek to modernize, but not westernize”...... Bandar of the next generation, grandson , King (chairman)
The first two days were peaceful calls for elections; the army embraced the protestors as brothers. The Islamomarxists saw the opportunity to create chaos as a means to seizing control, and jumped in with both feet.
Agreed. The present state of the Islamic Civilization doesn’t allow for a Western-style liberal democracy to emerge.
Iraq is going to be the ONLY Muslim country that DOESN’T go into chaos.
That’s only cuz all the insurgents who wanted to die for Allah in Iraq already had done so.
