I find the cutting off of aid a little disquieting. It tells me that Obama does not support Mubarak and probably doesn’t have a clue as to who or what will rule Egypt in his absence.

I don’t think we should have been giving aid to Egypt at all but why stop it at this critical point.

I honestly don’t trust Obama on muslim issues at all. I think he has much sympathy for islamic causes.

the aid was the price of the peace treaty with Israel. Given all the trouble we went through from 48-73, a billion or two a year to keep things quiet between them was well worth it. Of course, if we just do nothing as Mubarak is toppled and the MB takes over...

Further proof that the US doesn’t have anybody’s back anymore.

The American left suffers from the "Don't just stand there....do something" syndrome. They are afraid of appearing as if they don't know what to do, when in reality, they don't.

Our Dear Leader, like the MB, likely supports El Baridi, as the man was instumental in helping Iran obtain nuclear materials.
