You know, with this whole Egypt thing that we’ve kind of sort of following out of the corner of our Imperial Eye.
We mean, we know we’re far too simplisme (for the likes of Jacques ChIRAQ anyway) and that we lack the vital nuancing skills that seem to mean “whatever you do, make sure it doesn’t make an actual difference”, but it seems quite simple to us.
Correct us if we’re wrong. The Muslim Brotherhood are staging violent riots, uprising and revolts because they don’t much like this whole civilization thing with all of its indoor plumbing, bans on raping your first cousins etc. For those who’ve been sleeping in class, the Muslim Brotherhood are among the Original Bad Guys™, the proto-pisslamofascists that got the whole “back to the middle ages” ball running among the followers of Muhammed the Pedo-Prophet.
The one they’re trying to oust, so they can bring Egypt back to the lovely days of savagery that other highly successful nations such as Afghanistan and the Sudan are currently enjoying, is Hosni Mubarak who, granted, isn’t high on our Christmas Card list but who does have the whole “Not a Barbaric, Savage, Pisslamofascist Cave-Dweller” going for him.
So, really, where’s the holdup? No, Hosni isn’t exactly a paragon of democracy but, hey, at the risk of repeating ourself, he’s also not likely to be an active backer of plots to set off nukes in Lower Manhattan.
Yes, we also know that he hasn’t been near as hard on the pisslamofascists in his country as we’d like, he’s been straddling the fence trying to avoid pissing off anybody by pissing off everybody, and look how that’s working out for him.
So, once again: Why is this so far beyond anybody’s ken to figure out a proper response to, because we’re not seeing it.
We send in the guys with the big spanking sticks, help Mubarak eradicate the Muslim Brotherhood and their buddies and then, once the dust has settled, we’ve reinstalled one of our puppets safely, we’ve gotten rid of a shitload of subhumans who should have been gotten rid of a long time ago AND we can place a note with “YOU OWE US FUCKING BIG TIME, HOSNI-BABY!” on his desk.
Downsides? We mean, other than the usual “child-murdering, fanatic, savage pisslamic subhumans are people too and we mustn’t hurt their feelings or their ‘rights'”, because that one you might as well not bother committing to type.
Discuss.
Thatisall.
Yer Majesty, you talk as though splodeydopes setting off a nuke in Lower Manhattan would be a bad thing. Did you think that through? It has several good points going for it, to wit: it will get rid of a shit load of liberals, it will get rid of a shit load of damn yankees, and it could possible wake… Read more »
LC Ogrrre says: Yer Majesty, you talk as though splodeydopes setting off a nuke in Lower Manhattan would be a bad thing. Did you think that through? Well, we DO have a number of very good friends living in the vicinity and, besides, even if that weren’t the case, with the hirabis’ known propensity for fucking up, they might just… Read more »
what I think we’re seeing here is the total entrapment of Israel. The Muslim Brotherhood and Iran are making their move, doing it by making a grab at Egypt….Jordan….Lebanon….thus completely surrounding Israel. They know that obama won’t do anything to stop them, nor will he commit to defending Israel…..their timing couldn’t be better. Here’s a little map I whipped together… Read more »
crap…..nothing like typing the damned link incorrectly….
here it is again
Sure it did, for about 20 seconds, then they hit the snooze alarm. But, if the hirabis actually destroyed The New York Times, and the main offices of the Left Stream Media, they might stay awake for a little while longer this time.
Sire, I bend my head in despair. It is clear that you have missed “The Narrative”, we must never say anything that might even upset in any manner a Muslim person. You know like what we should be saying like. Wahabism Delinda Est! The Copts are the original Egyptians who built the Pyramids, the Arabs Muslims are ******g Invaders. Never… Read more »
Last I heard, the Botherhood came late to the party. They complicate things, but evicting the superannuated Maximum Leader & his flunkies could turn into an improvement. The whole flap would still have occurred without the Long-Bearded Clowns, & they may yet remain outside any new regime (or new version of the old, military-dominated order).
Any bets on how long it will take for the MSM to blame Bush? er. . .wait. . . They already did.
Predictably, Obumbles makes it about himself. When I was in Cairo shortly after I was elected president, I said….[snip] Gee, he only got three “I’s” in thirteen words. But first, he supports the rioters: So I want to be very clear in calling upon the Egyptian authorities to refrain from any violence against peaceful protesters. The people of Egypt have… Read more »
A good number of us make note of the similarities between Obonzo’s administration and the Now Second Worst President in the History of the US, Dhimmi Cardigan … does anyone else see some remarkable similarities between what’s happening now in Egypt (and Odumbo’s lack of decisive response) and what went down in Iran during Carter’s failed presidency? Will Egypt become… Read more »
one nuance i cannot fathom is El Baradei, who is siding with the streets, yet he is held up as an OBJECTIVE player in the Nuclear Non Proliferation IAEA world, as it pertains to Iran?! I just don’t get it… if this is his position, how can we look back at his statements of the past and take them seriously?

Great, a bunch of Palestinian prisoners escaped from egyptian prison and have made their way back to Gaza.
Worse, It seems some of the top dogs of the Muslim Brotherhood got to take a walk, as well. This definitely is not going well.
First thing I noticed was that Ogabe sided with the protesters.
Hey, I have a idea… how about we develop and use our own fucking oil! That way we don’t really have to give a fuck what happens in the Mid East ( with the exception of Israel (who can handle themselves pretty well already). I am sick and fucking tired of having to be “concerned” about what the the humans… Read more »
Posted on this yesterday. And have to agree with the comments above. This does remind me of the same fumblefucked … err … dimwitted shortsighted asshatery advanced by Billy Carter’s dumber brother. A lot of us military types wondered when we were going to take action to support the Shaw, then we wondered what steps we would take to get… Read more »
does this mean we can stop sending millions of taxpayer dollars to this shithole?
Just read an interesting post over at Pajamas Media that puts a different light on this whole thing. I won’t quote but will copy and paste it with a link to the post: here is a fourth possibility. The mass uprisings lead to a democratic government and an open media, and the Islamists, (including the schmucks who blame Israel and… Read more »

@ Jaybear: I too thought about the Bush strategy to plant the seeds of Democracy in the Middle East to ultimately win the war against militant Islam. I hope this is what we are seeing. Unfortunately, I also fear the law of unintended consequences which could result in popular uprisings (which we wanted) that result in the Muslims voting for… Read more »

Check this out: Trump was interviewed by Newsmax about the Middle East mess, and he has some scathing things to say about our current crop of “leaders”:
http://www.newsmax.com/Headline/trump-opec-oil-egypt/2011/01/30/id/384427?s=al&promo_code=B91B-1
And he also has interesting anecdotal (international businessman-type access) accounts of what the foreign businessmen and politicos REALLY think about the US and our “leadership.”
Here are some tidbits: Trump: Mideast Explosion Could Destroy OPEC, Lower Oil Prices Sunday, 30 Jan 2011 04:43 PM By Jim Meyers and Kathleen Walter Donald Trump is mad as hell — and he’s letting everybody know it.

LC Guy S says: So now Jimmah Carter’s “secret bastard child” (Hey the progressives start rumors about our guys all the time. Turn about is fair play. Carter is certainly old enough to have fathered Obambi, and they seem to have much the same mental outlook on things, specifically foreign policy, so why not?) sits in the oval office, and… Read more »
Sorry to say, Your Rottieness, but I do think on this one, you are being too simplistic and not giving the working class of Egypt and the educated youth their due.

Emperor Misha I says: What matters is who will have the power, organization and will to step in and scoop up the loot once the dust settles, and currently the Mooselimb Brotherhood are playing it just right if that’s what they’re planning, keeping a low profile while their enemies wear each other out.

Ahmad, a Gaza resident who asked not be identified by his full name, said that similar demonstrations would have taken place in Gaza, too, but people feared a crackdown by Hamas.
Off topic, but here we go again.
Watched the talking heads for a moment this evening. On Matthews show the pundit was declaring that the MB “hated” AQ and that they had put aside all their radical islamist behavior inorder to enter mainstream politics. On Fox, Krauthamer (sp?) stated that anyone that thought the MB would not adopt radical islamist behavior was unrealistically optimistic. Ultimately I think… Read more »
All of this has a haunting familiarity to this old geezer; even the excuses ana alibis sound like 1978-79. In the early staes of that democratic venture, there was no sign and little evidence of Islamofascist involvement. Hell. Our own UN Representative, the sainted Andy Young assured us that this Khomeini fellow was a sort of saint. el Baradei has… Read more »
Egypt doesn’t look as much like Iran 78-79 as might seem from network news footage. Pisslamic radicals were at the core of organizing the Iranian rebellion from the earliest times. That does not seem to be the case in Egypt. However, there is a real risk, as His Rottieness and Lord Pao An have learnedly noted above, that MB will… Read more »
If Obama refuses to help Israel, should radical Islam surround it, would the Israeli armed forces accept Gentiles? (Looking at the threat the Muslim Brotherhood made towards Israel today.)
