Uh, uh, THE EXORCIST = THE RITE = "the Power of DELI/DAGWOODS compells you ...".

Gut nuthin.

"Globalization of Jihad" > Yep, yes sir, you betcha.

Compare wid DAILY TIMES.PK > FACE OF MIDDLE EAST UNREST: YOUNG + HUNGRY FOR JOBS. Also tend to be Well-educated + Techs, Net-saavy.

ARTIC = Roughly 1/2 of CAIRO, EGYPT's 18.0MILYUHN population are YOUNG PEOPLE UNDER AGE 30. A similar Percentage of Egypt's national population live on only USD$2.0 a day or less.

IFF Official MASSOD AHMED = REGIONAL EMPLOYMENT POOL may have Education but lack many of the Skills needed for the GLOBAL ECONOMY.

IIUC, Egyptian Society = Arab-Muslim Societies = RIGIDLY STRATIFIED between a handful of [corrupt, dynastic] Ruling Elites, a small Middle Class, + mostly Food, Poverty-stricken Underclass. SURVIVAL OF VIABLE MIDEAST LIBERATRIAN = SECULAR DEMOCRACY DEPENDS OF THESE SOCIETIES DEV A LARGER + POTENT MIDDLE-CLASS = PRO-CAPITALIST/MATERIALIST "UNIVERSAL" PRIVATE-SECTOR, + away from traditional Govt-centric Autocracy, Oligarchy, + Kleptocracy, etc.???

OTHERWISE ....

To wit,

* DAILY TIMES.PK > [MQM Chief ALTAF HUSSAIN] ALTAF: REVOLUTION HAS BECOME THE THE FUTURE OF THE COUNTRY.

Pakistan = AFPAK???

* FOX NEWS AM > LOS ANGELES ANTI-MUBARAK PROTESTOR > opined that Egyptian riots are about [Egypt-specific] DEMOCRACY.

& VARIOUS NETTERS > opine that the MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD = RADICLA ISLAM may not had been involved or initiated these riots, BUT THE US-WEST/ALLIES SHOULD NOT UNDERESTIMATE THEIR ABILITY TO USE THE RIOTS AS COVER TO BOTH PROMOTE THE ISLAMIST AGENDA + GOVT. POWER-SHARING [aka "Political Jihad"] whereupon anti-Islamist elements in future will be pushed out or otherwise eliminated from any role or position in Public Govt.

E.g. MENSHEVIKS-VS-BOLSHEVIKS, LENIN/STALIN-VS-TROTSKY in POST-TSARIST/ROMANOV RUSSIA.
