This list is precisely why I expect the Muslim Brotherhood to behave themselves in Egypt for a year or two. Although the Suez Canal would be something they could use as a weapon against Europe they would be wise to be patient for some bigger fish to become available. 0bama and the USA might destabilize oil countries like Saudi Arabia and Libya for them. Once those countries are destabilized the MB could consolidate them with Egypt and really stick it to the rest of the world.

They might be on an accelerated timetable due to the risk of losing Obama in two years.

The situation is going to be volatile for some time to come. The Brothers might not be able to mollify them without some aggressive move on its neighbors.

Nothing binds a people better than war.

It seems the best we can hope for, is that they confine this belligerence to petty border incursions.

I'm beginning to think this is the start of Armageddon.
