What is also maddening is we the US taxpayer are probably paying for this insurrection. Money is not the end all and be all but it facilitates change even the change of our enemies and Islamic radicals such as the Muslim Brotherhood, Hamas and Hezbollah. These terrorist groups are the enemy of the people of the United States. They hate Americans. Our current administration is very deficient in enemy identification and takes the path of appeasement and apology for our foreign policy. Is this part of the world this makes the U.S. weak and vulnerable. We are playing a game of chess and not making the right moves. It seems our intelligence assets were asleep at the desk as well. Actually they probably knew what was about to transpire but could not find a political climate that was receptive to news they did not want to hear and did not fit their agenda for the region.
The Obama administration's own has declared Hamas and Hezbollah terrorist organizations on the State Department web site. That means U.S. money is forbidden from funding these organizations. I have previously noted that the Muslim Brotherhood is not a terrorist organization and has a secular governing philosophy.
Moreover, Muslim Brotherhood leaders interviewed by TIME in Tahrir Square consistently spoke of their commitment to the civil, non-sectarian nature of the state. "The Muslim Brotherhood takes Islam as a template, but we don't have a religious state or God-ordained rule," says Ibrahim Zakaria, a Brotherhood official and former member of parliament. "We believe in democracy and all its rules. We believe in the principle that the people are the origin and source of sovereignty, and that the people chose their leaders in free and secret ballots."
The Israeli and Egyptian governments have been the two leading nations receiving foreign aid under the Obama administration. To say Obama supports opposition groups is laughable. That doesn't stop Tea Partier Kathleen Gose from proclaiming "war is coming."
Egypt is in the grip of revolutionary violence. The longstanding regime of Hosni Mubarak will be overthrown. When that happens the consequences will be far-reaching. Egypt has the largest population and the strongest military in the Arab world. If a revolutionary Jihadist regime takes power in Egypt, then Saudi Arabia and the Gulf emirates will not survive. In that event, the oil-rich Persian Gulf will fall into the hands of radicals who are likely to use oil as a weapon against Europe, Japan and America. Following the pattern of other revolutionary regimes, the radicals will realign their respective countries with Russia, China, North Korea, Cuba and Venezuela.
Sometimes it is more important to listen than to speak. Hear the words from the streets from Israel, Gaza and Egypt. Israel thinks "War is coming."
Gose cites her unnamed sources that tell her Obama is funding terrorism and the apocalypse is coming.
"We have people listening on the streets in Nazareth, He'vron, and other Palestinian occupied areas. The chatter going on is; "Arabs are boasting Obama has provided money to Fatah and Hamas in order to fund the current insurrections.
I'm sure I can find someone "on the streets" who will be more happy to tell me that the 9/11 attacks were an inside job and UFOs are being hidden by the government. Anyone who thinks the Tea Party doesn't believe in conspiracy theories is kidding themselves.
