Interesting slide show. What exactly was controversial about it?

You're right. For the most part it sounded like a pretty good analysis. I still don't get the "tactical pivot," "strategic pivot" and Egypt being the "prize" though. I wonder if this has more to do with oil than it seems on the surface.

I get the tactical and strategic pivots...tactical meaning short term actions that must be done to achieve the overall strategic goal...I wasn't sure about Egypt though. Maybe he knows something we don't? Maybe he's a nut? Who knows? (which may be the whole point of all of this)
