Before, actually, with all those Muslim Brotherhood candidates arrested, but why quibble over pettifogging details?

#2  MASTER YODA > "BEGUN, THE ISLAMIST RIOTS, HAVE"!

Now cometh

* ISRAEL NN > [Wikileaks Docs = Egypt Prez HOSNI] MUBARAK TO US: IFF YOU DON'T STOP IRAN, WE'LL BUILD OUR OWN NUKES.

* HAARETZ > WIKILEAKS: ISRAEL CAUTIONED US NOT TO ARM ARABS AGZ IRAN.

ARTIC = PM NETANYAHU = warned that a NUCBOMB-ARMED IRAN may induce US-ARMED/SUPPOR, CURR ANTI-IRAN REGIONAL ARAB STATES TO SWITCH LOYALTIES TO TEHRAN.

IIUC, BIBI = is trying hard NOT to say that DE FACTO US FAILURE TO MILPOL STOP IRAN'S NUCPROGS = US FUTURE FAILURE TO STOP "NUCLEAR MILTERRS" = US + ISRAEL WILL INEVITABLY BE ATTACKED + NUKED, PROLLY ISRAEL FIRST BEFORE THE USA THANKS TO NORMAL "GREAT POWER/STATE" MIL BRINKMANSHIP.

IOW, the US may "give up the Israeli/Zionist ghost" to militarily save itself from RUSS + CHINESE + ... + NOW IRAN'S LR NUC MISSLES + NUC TERRORISTS, FROM GLOBAL NUC WAR + NUC TERROR.

versus

* DAILY TIMES.PK > [PM Vlad Putin] RUSSIA TO DEPLOY NUKES, TROOPS ["strike forces"] IFF SHUT OUT FROM [NATO]MISSLE DEFENSE, SAYS PUTIN.

RUSSIA = EGYPT = INDIA/INDJUH-MUST-GIVE-UP-ITS-NUKES-FIRST PAKISTAN threatening to go their own Nukie way.

#1  If memory serves, the Muslim Brotherhood is part of the origins of Al Queda. The number 2 guy, Dr. Whozit's was imprisoned in Egypt for some time for subversion. So if they stifle them, who cares.
