The Next Step for Egypt’s Opposition (Elbaradei Op Ed)
NYT ^ | February 10, 2011 | MOHAMED ELBARADEI

...

What needs to happen instead is a peaceful and orderly transition of power, to channel the revolutionary fervor into concrete steps for a new Egypt based on freedom and social justice. The new leaders will have to guarantee the rights of all Egyptians. They will need to dissolve the current Parliament, no longer remotely representative of the people. They will also need to abolish the Constitution, which has become an instrument of repression, and replace it with a provisional Constitution, a three-person presidential council and a transitional government of national unity.

The presidential council should include a representative of the military, embodying the sharing of power needed to ensure continuity and stability during this critical transition. The job of the presidential council and the interim government during this period should be to set in motion the process that will turn Egypt into a free and democratic society. This includes drafting a democratic Constitution to be put to a referendum, and preparing for free and fair presidential and parliamentary elections within one year.

The MSM is doing its absolute best to ensure that Egypt becomes an Islamic state.

I don't think he even lives (or was living ) in Egypt. Soros has been promoting him for this job since last year. For that reason alone he has no place in this process.

The New York Times isn't satisfied with publishing classified information.

Now they want to give aid and comfort to the enemy. Good advice, warm thoughts, maybe a cup of coffee.

The rebirth of Egypt represents the hope of a new era in which Arab society, Muslim culture and the Middle East are no longer viewed through the lens of war and radicalism, but as contributors to the forward march of humanity, modernized by advanced science and technology, enriched by our diversity of art and culture and united by shared universal values.

That's what was promised with Iraq, due to their relative education level and historical roots in Western civilization. Won't happen in either country as long as you have Koranimals in your midst.

Good job Slimes, this is the same dude backed by the Muslim Brotherhood which IS a terrorist organization.

Cairo is a city of 8 million people and yet it's 200k people demanding Mubarak leave. This is less than 3% of the population of Cairo. What would Obama do if 3% of the population of NY City protested and demanded Obama step down?

The Next Step for Egypt’s Opposition [from NYT (Democrat Agenda) and Mo El Baradei, (Insurgent)]:
"What needs to happen instead is a peaceful and orderly transition
of power, to channel the revolutionary fervor
into concrete steps for a new Egypt based
on freedom and social justice.
"

Actual Translation:
NYT and El Baradei: "Honorable Egypt must bow to the enemies of Egypt,
which must remain silent, like a beaten dog."


The Next Step for Egypt’s Opposition [from NYT (Democrat Agenda) and Mo El Baradei, (Insurgent)]:
"The new leaders will have to guarantee the rights of all Egyptians."

Actual Translation:
NYT and El Baradei: "Ikhwan, Iran and the DNC will create a Caliphate and the rights
and honor of brother Egyptians will be gone."


The Next Step for Egypt’s Opposition [from NYT (Democrat Agenda) and Mo El Baradei, (Insurgent)]:
"They will need to dissolve the current Parliament, no longer remotely representative of the people. They will also need to abolish the Constitution"

Actual Translation:
NYT and El Baradei: "Ikhwan, Iran, the IAEA and the DNC have spoken.
Egypt will be silenced.
Our insurgency is supreme."

“The new leaders will have to guarantee the rights of all Egyptians.”

Why don't we start with the rights of the world knowing who is behind the “revolution” and why “Unions”, “Big C communists” and radical Islamic extremists are stirring the pot all over the middle east?

Since none of those groups have ever shown even the slightest interest in “the rights of” anyone not supporting their collective thuggery, it is logical to conclude that they are not interested in “liberty and justice for all”, but rather they are fomenting chaos among the useful idiots to destabilize the region for their own benefit.

I doubt that they would have published an anti-communist op-ed from a decent person who opposed Mao, Castro, Stalin, or any of their other heroes. The NYT is pathetic and biased.

Somehow, the leftist seem to keep ignoring the fact that the folks in the street keep shouting “Allah Akbar”.

El Baradei is to Egyptian leadership as Rosie Ruiz is to marathon running.

What would Obama do if 3% of the population of NY City protested and demanded Obama step down?

Being the knee jerk Muslim that he is, he would obviously call it a Zionist Plot and launch rockets into Israel.

Another chapter out of the “How to topple a Government in the Middle East” circa:1979 by letting the executions begin.

“The new leaders will have to guarantee the rights of all Egyptians.”

The people will have the right to be enslaved
The people will have the right to ruled by Sharia law
The people will have the right to choose Islam
The people will have the right to ban (or kill) Christians
The people will have the right to die for Mohammad
The Christians will have the right to convert or die

The people will not be allowed to question the new
government
The people will not be allowed religious freedom
The people will not be allowed to protest the new
government.
The people will not be allowed any rights, rights are for
mullahs.

ElBaradei is an Egyptian but hasn't lived there in years. He has returned now to attempt to set himself up as a national leader. I doubt he will live to see it happen. The real power-grabbers will make short work of him when the time comes.
