LOL, yes he would have.

My take on this is that the Muslim Brotherhood has been crazy like a fox. It instills unrest. The people on the street risk their lives, get butchered, and eventually topple the government.

Then the Muslim Brotherhood waltzes in (as Iran’s proxy), and sets up a new government, that is tied at the hip with Iran. During the process it’s core people are safe and secure.

I want folks to contemplate for a moment, that we are seeing the inception of a United States of Iran. Should we be congratulating anyone that is helping to facilitate that outcome?

Someone said I’m trashing someone for either doing or not doing something. No, I’m advocating precisely that. Don’t do anything right now. We have no way of knowing how this will turn out. What we do know, is how Egypt is turning out, and we have no reason at all to think Libya won’t go the same route.

Once again, is the planet going to be better off with ten Irans in that region, especially if our major oil suppliers are among them?

Do you want to be in the position of congratulating anyone for helping to bring that about? I honestly don’t.

I do have empathy for the people of Libya, as their leader was everything you mentioned he was. I just don’t believe their future is as bright as they think. They are going into another bondage. I’m not going to congratulate them on that. I will empathize with them.

Why would the Sunni Muslim Brotherhood ally itself with Shia Iran?

Believe me when I say this, there is no love lost there, in particular when you are dealing with conservative Sunni’s like the MB

You make good points. MB has figured out the coward's way to take over countries.

I will empathize with them.

Here's hoping that you sympathize and definitely not be forced to empathize with them.

Nobody’s doing any “congratulating.” Yet you repeat the word as though you want to perpetuate a lie.

Palin is speaking out against a dictator shooting down hundreds of his own people.

Doing this while not worrying how it might affect her politically down the road is more evidence that she knows when to do what’s right, and more reason why she needs to be our next President.
