Here's my take on the whole thing. There are a lot of players in the Middle East who want the "old guard" dictators of the region removed. These countries -- including Israel and many Arab states run by Islamic royal families -- have effectively been dictating U.S. foreign policy for years through their lobbying in Washington D.C.

The problem is that after three disastrous episodes in the last decade (Iraq, Libya and Egypt) the whole farce has been exposed because nobody has any clue about what comes next after the "old guard" dictator is deposed.

The continuing instability in that region will be their punishment ... and now ours, too.

Israel want the old dictators gone so they can have al queda and the brotherhood on their borders?

Lets face it the biggest stumbling block is (i)slam as long as this cult exists you can rest assured there will be no peace. I have no problem believing and praying to God, just eliminate the rest conceived and cobbled together by a disturbed human being.
