Obama must understand that the people have woken up

Jordan's Muslim Brotherhood leader: "Obama must understand that the people have woken up and are ready to unseat the tyrant leaders who remained in power because of U.S. backing"

Hammam Saeed, like Sheikh Qaradawi and others, apparently believes that if the people in Arab Muslim countries express their general will, Sharia states -- which the Brotherhood is dedicated to establishing -- will result.

"Jordan's opposition: Arabs will topple tyrants," by Jamal Halaby for AP, January 29:

AMMAN, Jordan (AP) - The leader of Jordan's powerful Muslim Brotherhood warned Saturday that unrest in Egypt will spread across the Mideast and Arabs will topple leaders allied with the United States. Hammam Saeed's comments were made at a protest outside the Egyptian Embassy in Amman, inspired by massive rallies in neighboring Egypt demanding the downfall of the country's longtime president, Hosni Mubarak.

About 100 members of the fundamentalist group and activists from other leftist organizations and trade unions chanted "Mubarak, step down" and "the decision is made, the people's revolt will remain." [...]

"The Americans and (President Barack) Obama must be losing sleep over the popular revolt in Egypt," he said. "Now, Obama must understand that the people have woken up and are ready to unseat the tyrant leaders who remained in power because of U.S. backing."

Saeed did not specifically name King Abdullah. But he said Jordan's prime minister "must draw lessons from Tunisia and Egypt and must swiftly implement political reforms."

"We tell the Americans 'enough is enough'," he said....

Leaders of the world should watch Egypt very carefully when they see their military not supporting their leaders. Egypt’s military will not turn on their own people. I think you all know where I’m going with this.

The Dark Side wins another one.
Just like Carter helped the Ayatollahs of Iran,
Obummer will deliver Egypt into the hands of the Muslim Brotherhood.

A very bloody war in the Middle East will be the result.

As well as it sould send a warning to President Obama as well when it comes to the military, because the later has the support of the American people and as such, will not turn against them just as the what we are seeing with Egyptian military in regards to Egypt’s citizens.

the people have woken up

Nope, they've fallen right back into the same troubled, nightmare-ridden sleep from which others have been trying to wake them for 1.4 millennia.

Give the brotherhood what they want and let them party forever with their virgin goats. Cost is a card board box to hold the remains.!

Which is the reason why if push comes to shove the American State will hire foreign troops to do their dirty work against American citizens. All the more reason to hold onto those “Second Amendment remedies”. Which is about defense not offense as the lamestream media distorts. A lot of gun grabbers are outright hypocrites as they often hire body guards or own guns themselves in the same name of protection.

And to think that this is the president who was going to create peace and unity throughout the entire world.

The man is swallowing rainbows and riding unicorns.

For the moment the eruption in Egypt seems to be pretty secular. The Brotherhood has been laying low.

He didn’t understand it back home in November, why would anyone think he understands it in Egypt now?

Seldom recognized is that Jimmy’s Nobel prize winning peace accord created this Mubarak situation. Jimmy successfully kicked the can down 30 years of the road. For some that is success and peace in our time.
