(CNSNews.com) – In a blunt warning to countries critical of the Egyptian military crackdown and considering suspending aid, longstanding U.S. ally Saudi Arabia suggested that the decisions they make now will have long-term consequences for their relationships in the Arab and Muslim world. Saudi Arabia has led the way in supporting the Egyptian military’s actions, first in removing the Muslim Brotherhood administration early last month and in its subsequent steps against supporters of the ousted Islamist president, Mohammed Morsi. Its warning came as policymakers in the U.S. and Europe mull the question of continuing financial assistance to Cairo following the violence in recent days, in which more than 1,000 people have been killed in clashes between security forces and Morsi supporters. Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Saud Al-Faisal issued a lengthy statement Monday defending the military’s actions and informing countries that have threatened to withdraw aid that Arab and Muslim countries “will not hesitate to help Egypt.”

I don’t know what Alex Jones fans are saying but I’m not so sure that Obama is behind the MB when there are so many much more malleable mideastern progressives on the board. After all the move to oust Mubarak was largely driven by global progressives including a whole lot here.
Also keep an eye on the international crisis group.
I just meant the NWO/One world Govt position they ascribe to everything that happens. Except this time, considering everything is turning on it’s head with Russia acting like us in the 50s and vice versa, Saudi/Israel and other mid east countries teaming up specifically to oppose our position and the like...
It seems like we literally have slipped into wonderland. But there must be an endgame to moves this big and this ‘foreign’ to anything that has happened before.
Hell, I could see the rest of the planet teaming up against us at this point thanks to Zero and ALL of his enablers on both (heh like there are to sides at this point) of the asile and forcing us into our own regieme change.
Not a bad outcome really.
Egypt has little doubt about Obama’s links to the brotherhood.

and with the MB White House access, I don’t either.
You can send me all the links you want. I’m ignoring them anyway because I do my own research and have ever since the
“Arab spring”.
Elbaradei was the progressive Obama wanted in 2011 and he’s still lurking and even stepped down as VP last week.
You can tell each other that you’re sticking it to Obama all you want but he’s outsmarting you. The only chance of salvaging a win for America out of this is cutting them off and letting them fight it out.
If he isn’t the ac he is certainly a close relative.
LLS
Obama was gouing to”FIX”The Middle East Problem!He has turned it into a”DE-Stabilized”MESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LOL. That's a pinched view of those doing the work the MSM refuses to do. I be the last person to believe or identify with a muppet crowd telling each other we got him this time.
But your doubt about the MB/Obama connection did present the opportunity to share more information on that subject and I took it. So thanks for helping.
I have no problem buying that.
No, Obama never was anything but a mouthpiece. Nothing about the dems running him made sense and there was not enough cash available in America to sell him to us.
I also do not believe Ulsterman was all a fantasy. I think there was a lot of truth there that someone wanted out in either the hopes someone would listen...OR to get it on the ‘record’ in case things went south/a ‘see we told you’ sorta way. I believe he plays more video games than I do, I believe he’s on moore drugs than Kennedy (which is why his appearances are limited and highly controlled (ulsterman also got into this) and that Jarret has always been his handler.
When the SHTF, I won’t survive it due to health issues, but for those that do, that impact will be the best thing that could happen. Because all their plans for control are going to crumble under the sheer weight of numbers. They have seriously underestimated how pissed off people across the planet will be when their lives, no matter how poor, are suddenly in danger.
Exactly! George Bush Sr. was an idiot for intervening on their behalf against Saddam. We should have let them all fight it out amonst themselves. Muslims killing Muslims. I don’t see the problem.
Screw the Saudis. They will run out oil someday and will revert to type. Their money will be squandered, their Western military hardware will become dilapidated, and those nomads will again be picking sand and camel dung from their teeth while the imams bugger their daughters.
No I mean a much bigger stage play. As in total world realignment.
I certainly can't disagree with your statement, Norm Lenhart, if only because a prodigiously large proportion of all that goes on politically is obvious drama; I have to doubt, however, whether bringing America to its knees counts as mere drama.
I think the goal, shared by Islam, Putin's neo-fascist Russia, communist China and other Marxists the world over, and our own loudly self-proclaimed "progressives" or "liberals," is to destroy America as a wealthy, capitalist, exceptionalist constitutional republic. I believe they're motivated in large measure by hatred, jealousy, greed, mass murder and destruction for the sake of mass murder and destruction, and the like. Is Putin scoring points against President You Didn't Build That in the hope of making both himself personally and Russia look bigger and more important? Sure—but he's also doing what he can to help Iran come up with nuclear weapons. Facing off YDBT is theater, and I believe it's obvious to everyone by now Putin is a far more skillful showman than YDBT—but that's a distraction. How much time will pass between Iran's cooking up nuclear weapons and detonating them in American cities? Ten minutes? Two weeks? A couple months?
Who's shooting whom today in Egypt is headline news all the way around the globe, but the further weakening of America from within gets almost no coverage—but the weakening from within is much more likely to result in the dollar's collapse than sectarian violence in Egypt. I believe all too many of us are still thinking in terms of Republicrats versus Democans in Congress, which has been a sloppily scripted theatrical production for years, whereas in fact, America's very survival as a nation is at stake.
When the history of our times is written, people are going to wish they could ask us, "How could you have been too stupid to notice you were in a global war?"
“How could you have been too stupid to notice you were in a global war?”
I think the answer is the complete success of the Communist Goals presented to Congress back in the mid 1900s. Logical/critical thinking was intentionally removed from education. And the rest we see is the direct result.
I see the article was posted twice, so I’ll post my comments on both.
What business has the bankrupt and administratively stupid Amelrican central socialist government have shoveling monies into a Muslim nation? Let the damned Saudis do it! Close up embassies in all arab nations and kick their ambassadors out of the USA. When a new Conservative US governmentive is elected evict the UN and give them one year to pack up and move out.
What possibly could be good about a country run by a thug who got power because his father’s father shot his way to power and now keeps power by letting the clerics murder mentally ill woman they consider witches. This country sells us oil; it spawned the Twin Towers killers and sends money around the world a lot of which winds up in the hands of Muslims who want us dead.
It is so progressive it kills anybody who brings a Bible into the country and works a lot of its foreign workers like slaves, especially the woman. Talking of women, they get raped in that country and thrown in jail after 100 lashes as it is automatically assumed they encouraged the rape. Obozo sold out democracy in Egypt, but Saudi Arabia never had any.
