For a thousand years Egypt was a more or less pluralistic secular society. It is the baleful influence of Bedouin petrodollars that has caused this atavistic eruption of barbarism. The Wahhabists didn’t pour money into hospitals or water treatment or housing, they infiltrated the religious centers and insinuated their regressive toxin into the fabric of Egyptian life, with dreadful results.

As the army takes control of Egypt, demonstrators in favour of the ousted president “feel isolated and ignored”. For the past year or so, the anti-Morsi crowd “felt accepted and loved”.

This is exactly why we have "secular" iron-fisted dictators like The Shaw, Kadoffy, Mubaric, and @$$head. They might be murdering bastards, but they keep those 3M (maniacal murdering moslem) bastards repressed and suppressed...or better yet...shot.

Let the round-up begin....YEEEEEE...HAAAAW!

Oh, so sad. I’m deeply touched. NOT!


Their 12 year old wives are deeply touched too.

I hope it works out a little better than that. But the middle east does not understand liberty and freedom. Sort of like most of our elected federal gummit doesn’t understand liberty and freedom.

Maybe so but only his base will believe him... and that is only about 22%.

The similarities between what happened in Egypt and what happened in American are staggering.

Tanked economy, soaring unemployment, soaring debt, oppression of Christians, personal freedoms attacked, MASSIVE corruption...I could go on but I think the point is made.

The only difference is the good people of America rolled over like sheep. I'm not suggesting that we should have a military coup but we should have had massive demonstrations.

There IS a coup in America and it's on track and almost complete.

“Supporters of Morsi(Obama) and his Muslim Brotherhood wondered how the man who last year became Egypt’s(USA’s) democratically-elected president could be ousted so ignominiously.”

A lot of us in the USA are asking the same thing about our democratically elected leader. Shame he has already sacked most of the real leaders in our military and replaced them with his cronies.

Yea...cry me a river.

Lots of these people were cheering as the Muslim Brotherhood and other extremist Islamic henchmen literally CRUCIFIED Coptic Christians in the street.

I have no sorrow for them loosing their “leader,” or their “moment.”

I hope the new regime allows the Egyptian military to hunt them, down and eradicate them.

No, I'm good with that. It's been unspoken US policy for a long long time.And they were right.

The only thing better would be US air-delivered eradication of the rioting mobs of screaming fundamentalists as they form up in the streets. Just light em up...literally.

I wonder what it takes to become a Grand Mufti??

I would like that title...I think?

Cuttnhorse, the Grand Mufti of the ranch.

Muftis are Muslim religious scholars who issue influential legal opinions (fatwas) interpreting Sharia (Islamic law).[1] The Ottoman Empire began the practice of giving official recognition and status to a single mufti, above all others, as the Grand Mufti

The difference is that we are a civil society. But more and more people are at or past the tipping point. I smell a change in the air. We’ll see.

Amazing if they oust this fundamentalist POS Morsi and it looks like they will. For the last 20-30 years the Fundamentalists have been winning and taking over secular oriented Muslim counties. So lets hope the tide is turning against the Jihadists whether they be stealth Jihadists (like Morsi) or warring Jihadists

One option to that....the ones ousted are free to join the revolution if it comes to that. Just sayin'.....
