Has anyone discussed how the Egyptian/Cairo riots could have something to do with Hani Nour Eldin’s June visit to the WH? Maybe they aren’t as understanding as Dmitry Medvedev was when obama tried to explain how he has to wait until AFTER the election to release the Blind Sheikh (Rahman).
According to an arabic blog last February, obama was negotiating with Egypt for a prisoner swap. Source: http://www.jihadwatch.org/2012/02/al-arabiya-us-in-talks-to-swap-jihad-terror-sheikh-omar-abdel-rahman-for-19-americans-held-in-egypt.html
This has probably been talked about here already, i’m sure.

Never mind. I see this is old news. Although this article below doesn’t come out and say it, that seems to be what it’s alluding to (i.e., islam extremists got tired of waiting for Blind Sheikh’s release so they’re burning Europe).
State Department Considering Talks to Transfer ‘Blind Sheikh’ to Egypt
September 17, 2012
McCarthy explained that Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi has been calling for the release of the Blind Sheikh ever since he was elected earlier this year. He said it is a matter of “great importance” to the radical Islamists in Egypt and throughout the Middle East, adding that his transfer to Egypt would undoubtedly lead to the terrorist’s release.
“I think the plan has been to agree to the Blind Sheikh’s release but not to announce it or have it become public until after the election. That is consistent with Obama’s pattern of trying to mollify Islamists,” he added. “Obviously, they did not want this information to surface yet… but sometimes a situation can spin out of control.”
