#1 That is likely the best piece I've seen from the big names.

#2 Egyptian democracy movement???? That's Tom for you. One part wisdom to 10 parts drek. Last I looked Egypt was a junta. Ask the Copts about the non-sectarian nature.

#3 The Moslem Brotherhood is the strongest single party organized to win the elections in the Fall in Egypt. The military Junta will look after its own economic perks and they are enormous in Egypt. The Junta will still be there no matter who gets elected and they will be hand to lips with Hamas.

Plus, everybody thinks of Egypt as just another country in the "Middle East".....and forget that Egypt is the key to controlling AFRICA. KaDaffy and Tunisia are also African. This whole thing started on African soil, not Middle Eastern soil. The Pyramids are sitting on silt from AFrica, a LOT of Africa.

And there is still more Oil we havent found yet, I think....in Africa. What I am saying is that we better pay attention to Egypt with Africa as a backround as much as we do to it as a Middle Eastern orientation.

Egypt is ESSENTIAL to dominance of the Middle East, and we have to have dominance in Egypt or we cant play in the Middle Eastern games. BUT in the long game Egypt is the key to dominance in the African Continent.

the Moslems are not our friends and they never will be. They have memories that go back for tens of centuries. We will ALWAYS be Infidel dogs to the Moslems. Somebody has to win and somebody has to lose. There isnt any "fair" about it.

#4 Good points, Dribble2716. :-) I'd quibble that Egypt is the key to north Africa rather than the whole continent, but I'm open to being persuaded.
