Bolton reminds interested parties of Eqypt's jihadi Muslim Brotherhood

Vanity

[Prospero]

Bolton is the first person I've heard anywhere who has thrown some cold water on the warm and fuzzy flower-power crowd, cheering on events in Cairo.

[cripplecreek]

Yeah, Mubarak is no angel but he’s a whole lot better than the alternative.

[La Lydia]

I have been throwing cold water on it since it started, Prospero. This is an excellent post. You might be interested in

John Bolton is a great man.

We could use him as Secretary of State or in the White House.

He’s worth twice the weight of Hillary and Obama put together in gold.

[combat_boots]

Sadat was assassinated by the MB as well.

Egypt is such a toilet it deserves a Taliban..
Cut all funds there.. anyone going thru the Suez deserves what they get..

America, Bolton, Cain

[mylife]

A lot of us have been throwing cold water on it here at FR.

[MizSterious]

Thank goodness for Bolton. Pray for the Americans in the region—as Iran taught us, they are not safe.

[Prospero]

Thanks, LL. History in the making. Glad some folks have their heads screwed on right.

[Sioux-san]

Maybe the Chinese can offer to run the Suez like they’re doing in Panama.

Democracy in the Middle East will give you what we have in Iraq - as soon as our troops are out, it won’t be pretty there either. The Muslims want Shariah to be their governing way of life wherever they live...including Dearborn and Montreal.

[Prospero]

Indeed. Qtub. An interesting fellow about whom very little seems discussed in the Occident. I read about him extensively only after a blurb mentioning him on the History Channel one rainy afternoon, not so very long ago.

Then there's El Baradei, who preferred to be addressed as "effendi," back when he worked at the UN.

[Prospero]

Yes, indeed. How did I forget that! It makes me wonder what effect the Mubarak regime has had purging the military ranks of the “Brotherhood.”

[ScottinVA]

Yeah, Mubarak is no angel but he’s a whole lot better than the alternative.

Very true. People in arab-muslim countries need iron-fisted authoritarians to rule them. The best the West can do is hold its collective nose and throw its support behind Mubarak. He's not a shining star by any means, but he has kept a lid on trouble there for the most part. Better they have a dictator WE can stomach, rather than one to the liking of Iran or al-Qaida.

We went down the road of escorting out the head of state and giving the revolutionaries a try in Iran.. and we know how well that roll of the dice turned out.

[dfwgator]

I so wish this guy was Secretary of State right now.

[Marty62]

He is the only one that knows EXACTLY what the Muslim Brotherhood REALLY represents.

The Muslim Brotherhood murdered Anwar Sadat for having a PEACE TREATY with Israel.
Numerous attacks on Nasser (no angel).

“Allah is our objective. The Prophet is our leader. Qur’an is our law. Jihad is our way. Dying in the way of Allah is our highest hope.”—Muslim Brotherhood

[Freddd]

and remember Obama said when the political winds shift in an ugly direction, he would stand Muslim...

[marron]

the celebrated pediatrician and second-in-command of al Qaida, Dr. Ayman Al-Zawahiri, began his murderous career as a jihadi terrorist as a prisoner in Egypt, as an influential member of the notorious Muslim Brotherhood.

And as leader of Egyptian Islamic Jihad, was on Saddam's payroll.

Since EIJ was on Saddam's payroll, and they recruited Bin Ladin and formed his inner circle, OBL's Saddam connection hides in plain sight.

The Chinese don't run the Panama Canal. They manage the port facilities.

In reality, there are quite a few Americans still working at the Canal as they have the experience needed to teach the Panamanians how to do it.

So, please, for once and for all, stop perpetuating the myth of the Chinese running the Canal.
