#1 For the moment, Egypt's government is insulated from a backlash at home by the fierce anti-Islamist sentiment in the country since last year's ouster of Islamist President Mohammed Morsi by the then-military chief, now Egypt's president, Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi.

In contrast, note how our current regime cares very little about.... "backlash at home."

#2 It is not only the 'regime.' Support for the Muslim Brotherhood, especially support for a MB takeover of Egypt is consensus policy in the Western political class.

We give in to the islamofascists' political demands and in turn they won't try to coerce us by means of terrorism.

Terrorism ends and we win the 'War on Terror'.

#3 Hamas chief Khaled Mashaal, in a speech Wednesday, demanded the immediate opening of Gazoo borders "held by Arabs" a clear reference to Egypt.

Losers don't get to make demands

#4 Israel offerred Gaza to the Egyptians when they gave up Sinai.

Egypt said NOOOOO!!!!!!

Same with Jordan and the West Bank.

Think that should show you something about the worth of the Paleos.

#5 Thought many (thousands) Paleos lived in Jordan but got booted out because they stirred up too much trouble and Jordanians couldn't get along with them.

#7 Then the Arafish and his surviving followers went to Beruit, Lebanon, where they destabilized that country and caused the IAF to rain down destruction upon them. The Islamic paleos have worn out their welcome everywhere they go.

The lefty EUnichs support them but won't resettle them in the neighborhood. NIMBY yah know.
