I’m no fan of dictators, but if it takes the Army to keep the MB from gaining control, so be it.
There comes a point where I believe less in free political activism and more in suppressing a faction that wants to KILL US ALL. Just sayin’.
nobama, through his incitement and support of the mooslim brotherhood types, has much blood on his hands.
I think we are gonna lose Egypt no matter what, this is a clusterfook on an epic scale.
News agencies saying that Pro Mubarak supporters being backed by police in uniforms and police vehicles.
Not good. We are heading to a huge breakdown in everything.
“Democracy” is not a Republic based on the recognition of certain inalienable political rights. Its mob rule.
The English forefathers of America - not their degenerate socialist descendants - experimented with democratic and republican ideas for a very long before the Constitution and Declaration of Independence were written.
In some societies and cultures there has been no prior experience of self-rule and any “democratic” movement inevitably leads to the mob just selecting a new master.
My guess is this is what is happening in Egypt right now. They are unhappy with the present dictator due to miserable economic conditions and brutal oppression, and will exchange their old master for a new one.
Its the Islamic way as Islam is totally incompatible with a Republican concept of government based on individual rights, which is the only successful form of “democracy”.
UP UNTIL NOW, the U.S. has been the most successful practitioner of this, and Egypt is no more likely to produce a real Democracy than was the France of Robespierre or the Russian government of Kerensky.
