Shut up, that's how.
Today is a good day to die.
I didn't say for whom.

Obama fundraiser group Code Pink issued an emergency appeal on Thursday for thousands of dollars to help the group overthrow the Egyptian government of Hosni Mubarak.
Code Pink, which has a history of working with enemies of the Egyptian government Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood, said in the appeal it wanted to raise $5,000 to fund "the next big uprising" against the Egyptian government on Friday.
As we reported previously, Code Pink has been on the ground in Cairo since the beginning of the uprising. The group has made nine trips to Egypt in the past two years as part of a campaign to undermine the Egyptian government and the blockade against Hamas-controlled Gaza.
The headline for the appeal published at the Web site of Code Pink's fundraising partner Democracy in Action reads:
"Help us raise $5,000 in emergency funds today to support the Egyptian revolution!"
Code Pink co-founder Medea Benjamin posted on Twitter from Egypt at 3:19 a.m. Cairo time on Friday that more than $10,000 had already been raised.
In the appeal, Code Pink urges supporters to send cute little puppies and kittens to the demonstrators. Not really. They actually urge Code Pink's dupes to "Send flowers and supplies to the demonstrators!"
Yes, Code Pink wants to replicate the famous 1967 photo of a propaganda stunt where a protester against the Vietnam war placed flowers in the barrels of rifles held by soldiers at the Pentagon:
"The next major demonstration in Egypt has been called for this Friday after prayers. People are desperate for it to be a peaceful mobilization. The demonstrators have a plan to deliver hundreds of flowers to demonstrators, wounded protesters, and to the gun barrels of the Army's tanks during the next big uprising on Friday after prayers."
Of course Code Pink has more in mind than just a propaganda stunt. The group also claims that donations over the five dollar for flowers will "buy blankets, food and medicines for the protesters in the streets." Sure.
Code Pink claims it is a 501-C3 tax exempt organization and posts the tax ID number 95-4658841 on the fundraising appeal. Code Pink says on the appeal, "Any donation you make over the $5 is a tax-deductible contribution to CODEPINK."
That's right. Who knew funding the overthrow of U.S. allies was a tax exempt charitable act?
One has to wonder, how will Code Pink account to the IRS for the expenditures--not that the Obama administration will investigate a group co-founded by Jodie Evans who is one of President Barack Obama's top presidential fundraisers.
Being that 501-C3 organizations are prohibited from raising or spending money for candidates or partisan political activity, how can it be lawful to raise and spend tax exempt funds to overthrow a government? Again, Code Pink states upfront the money is to "support the Egyptian revolution!"
There is no guarantee that Code Pink will spend the money solely on "flowers...blankets, food and medicines for the protesters in the streets." As the group says at the end of the appeal, "Our CODEPINK team is on the ground in Cairo doing everything we can to support the movement." Will the 'CODEPINK team' dip into the donations to cover their expenses? Will they be buying hash, cigarettes and liquor in the Cairo streets or hookah bars? Will some of that money be used by protesters to buy Molotov cocktail supplies or worse?
Code Pink has a history of working with and giving humanitarian aid to terrorist groups like Hamas. It passes itself off as non-violent but supports those who engage in violence against America and her allies--especially Israel. Code Pink knows that humanitarian aid relieves pressure on groups to provide the basics to combatants and their families so that the tools of revolution can be bought and morale maintained.
Sure, Code Pink says the money is for flowers, blankets, food and medicine. But who will get the aid? We already know what they will do with the aid--work to overthrow America's Egyptian ally and staunch defender against Code Pink's partners Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood.
Some one asked my question on yahoo answers...

One theory, said by radio talk show host Michael Savage, is that it is intended for English audiences and that Egypt is being overtaken by a group called the Muslim brotherhood, which has influenced Muslim radical groups like Al Qaeda. The Muslin Brotherhood has waited for this protest so that during the chaos they can install a leader who will be the front for their organization, who's intent is to spread the religion of Islam, by force or by other means. I don't know how much of it is true, but it all sounds a little fishy and I think what's happening there can be dangerous for us here in the US, and world over. I don't exactly understand all this, but I think it's still interesting. Take a look at the link below. Source(s): http://www.michaelsavage.wnd.com/
Code Pink is dangerous to our Republic and the rest of the world as is all their buddies!!! Half of The libtards need crash helmets and the other half needs padded cells!!!!
DOES ANY ONE FIND IT ODD that the protesters in Egypt have ENGLISH protest signs?

Shut up, that's how.
I would not be shocked if the protest signs in Egypt that are in Arabic said, TOGETHER WE THRIVE...
Many thanks for the post, kristinn.
manc - Here’s how they are getting money.
thanks for the ping, I’m just about to read it.
Good for Beck getting on this , shame the other cowards on TV will not, Hannity to name one.
this needs to go out to as many outlets as possible.
I said at the start that something was a miss here and that it seemed the far left were with the MB.
Now all of this explains why obama was quick and adamant wants to have our ally step down. Why he did nothing with Iran.
This is sickening that we now have a change in foreign policy which is helping radical islam and where is our corrupted media over all of this?
you noticed that too, I saw one sign saying change , another sing saying you bet we’ll win.
Hardly an Islamic term
What recession?
What unemployment?
What economic downturn?
We still have plenty of money in LiberalLand.
You unemployed are just racist bigots trying to make the first black president look bad!
/sarc
we have a problem wiht our press, big time actually.
FOX right now has a woman so called reporter who is an Arab who actually said that she brought food and water in and the anti protesters thanked them
er why is reporters giving food and water to these reporters anyway and there is only one reporter right now who is decent and that is Mike Tobin
Obama's Treason - take your pick. Where do we start? Gutting the military, setting up the Egyptian situation, betrayal of Israel, giving away Britain's nuclear secrets to Russia, ACORN funding, doing anything he can to destroy our economy and free market capitalism, ignoring a Federal Judge's determination, (Obamacare unconstitutional) and refusing to build a border fence.
Thanks.
The Egyptian governemnt should grab enough protestors to constitute a valid sample size (certainly no more than 1,500) during all the action, just simply a catch-and-release arrest for disturbing the peace, and do a complete background check. Then take all that data of who they are, where they are from, why they are there and who’s paying their bills and they’d have some well-documented concrete evidence as to what percentage of the crowd is indigenous protestor versus outside hired agitator. They may come up with some good data that would support their outside agitator theory and justify a normal wind-down of the demonstration. If that is the case, the data could get released to the world media, delegitimizing the protest. They could then just have some emergency food relief help from U.S., sit down with all local Egyptian leaders to work on transition plan, a little business development talk to boost their economy and give them jobs, along with a graceful Mubarak retirement.
I did see a photo of an English-language sign in Egypt that said “Together We Can”.
That settles it. 0bama and code pink want Mubarak to go; I KNOW that he must stay.
Thanks for that link.
I’m not normally a fan of Michael Savge, but here he is rational and right on the money.
Either by treachery or naivitee, 0bama is setting up the next World War.
