Bert, I think the Muslim Brotherhood gets marching orders and funding from Iran. I know the terrorist groups get arms and financial support from Iran through Syria.
Iran/Syria have figured heavily in the development of the most well recognized terrorist groups of the region, and the Muslim Brotherhood itself is an offshoot of them.
What other entity would be motivated to coordinate the efforts that have taken place in a number of nations, to topple their governments, all at the same time.
Iran/Syria have been the only two groups who have shown a proclivity to organize and proliferate this sort of activity. Everything focused on Israel right now, has sprung forth from Iran/Syria.
Iran is just expanding on it’s manipulations IMO.
It met with success as it fought to cause trouble in Iraq and Afghanistan. Our not confronting Iran let it be known that it could pull the same things in other nations, and the U. S. would more than likely stand by and do nothing about it, or even help it reach it’s goals as it did in Lybia, and perhaps soon in Syria.
I don’t think this was a grass roots spontaneous action in the nations around the Middle-East. Iran is the only nation that has shown a proclivity to be involved in other nation’s business, and would likely be driving it.
I can’t disagree
