The US gives Egypt military 1.5 billion dollars a year.
The Saudis could make that up out of pocket change if they thought it would buy them some peace from the Muslim Brotherhood. Also with the US facing bankruptcy the money was likely to get scaled back in any case. Lets face it thanks to Obama's trillions of dollars of reckless domestic spending we just don't have the deep pockets necessary for wide scale bribery any more.

I was just trying to see a small glimmer of hope in this disaster. I am afraid we are in for some rough times.
While channel surfing today I happened to see Tingle Chrissy say that if the Egyptians do not find a FDR then all will be lost. So even the idiot libs might be waking up to this problem.
