Egypt Uprising - Foreign Minister Abu Al-Gheit Slams U.S. Administration for Interfering in Egypt’s Affairs:
“The question is not whether or not the latest American position pleases me. Ultimately, they have realized the need to conduct these major transformations gradually and on the basis of a roadmap with clear goals, guarantees, and phases. They were using the word ‘now.’ They said: You must do it now! But they changed their position...
When someone says to me ‘now,’ ‘immediately,’ and whatever, I say to him: ‘Boy, go play somewhere else.’ We will do everything according to the interests of our people and country.”
“.... It got to the point that whoever wants to gain points in his own country, and to give a show back home that he is a progressive-leftist-democratic-whatever, ....”

‘Boy, go play somewhere else.’
Oh my..... That is NOT going to go over well in The Whitehouse.
And I wonder what our media will do with it. The whole interview is such a slap that they USUALLY would simply ignore it, but I bet they cannot resist that quote : |
A whole lotta truth in the interview...
May God give us strength.

El Baradei wrote an op-ed in today’s NYT- pitiful- he can’t help himself fawning over Obamba:
The tipping point came with the Tunisian revolution, which sent a powerful psychological message: “Yes, we can.” These young leaders are the future of Egypt.

Not a stupid man, I bet Abu knew exactly what he said. The Egyptians know how to get under obie's skin.
Stealing that for a tagline:
LOLOL! OUCH! That's gonna leave a mark.
