Of course, the Neocon shills and Christian Zionists at the Elephant Barcan scarcely contain their glee at the prospect of more suffering for the Egyptian people, and continue to vaunt their 'realistic' perspective that brutality always wins. They need to believe that, because it's their only weapon against human freedom. And anybody can be sacrificed as long as their interests are preserved.<br /><br />Those of us who support the struggle of the Egyptians to rid themselves of tyranny do not need to be reminded that evil often wins; we have seen it over and over again!!! The revolution hangs in the balance, and anyone with a shred of decency will be hoping that through their determination and commitment to non-violent change the pro-democracy demonstrators will ultimately triumph!!!<br /><br /> If you can't say something constructive, and all you have to offer is pessimistic predictions of disaster with malignant 'I told you so's, you have no place in a sensible, civilised conversation.Salaadnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21297199.post-53952638774462799742011-02-13T07:22:36.785-05:002011-02-13T07:22:36.785-05:00There should never be a political class, a group o...There should never be a political class, a group of people who make their living as politicians. The political class is insulated, protected from the very people whom they are supposed to represent. How then, can politicians represent people?<br /><br />Mubarak's plan of dynasty rule by making Gamal his heir has been foiled by military, which used people to pull it off. One dictator is gone but dictatorship is securely in place. A military coup is is not a revolution by any stretch of imagination. Zia-ul-Haq in Pakistan promised elections in 90 days and ruled for 11 years.<br /><br />Credit where it belongs, to Bush administratiion accurate policy in removing the despotic Saddam Hussein - an act which is the seed from which the Egyptian and other Arab democratic movements are germinating.<br /><br />Adulterers and apostates went unpunished under the secular leadership of Mubarak, but now it will be changed.

"Democracy," "Freedom", "Representative Government" are the buzzwords that trickle wetly out of their printers. All cynicism is disdained and skepticism swept into the dustbin. History is being made here. But the tricky thing about history is that it isn't a point on a map, but a continuous wave. Like the tide, history is made and remade over and over again, formed and repeated, washed and beached on the shores of time.<br /><br />59 percent of Egyptians want democracy and 95 percent want ISLAM to play a large part in politics. (As Egypt has approximately 5 percent of Christians that means 100 percent of Muslims want Islam to play a large part in politics.) 84 percent believe apostates should face the death penalty.<br /><br />That is what Egyptian democracy will look like. A unanimous majority that wants an Islamic state and a bare majority that wants democracy. WHICH ONE DO YOU THINK WILL WIN OUT? A democratic majority of the country supports murdering people in the name of Islam. Mubarak's government does not execute apostates or adulterers. But a democratic Egypt will. Why? Because it's the will of the people.<br /><br />AS happened in France, Russia, Germany Ethiopia, Iran, China, the liberal cheerleaders shaking their pom poms for Egyptian democracy choose not to grasp that the outcome could be anything other than positive. It's an article of faith for them that freedom leads to freedom. That open elections give rise to human rights. That the problem can only be the dictator, not the people. Never the people. That is their ideology and they will stick to it. Seeing History has never bourn this ideology out why should history reverse this long established pattern?<br /><br />Further seeing that the leader of the Muslim Brother hood has called for the suspension of the peace treaty with Israel. If this happens it will mean the absolute failure of Israel’s land for peace program as is also the case in Gaza and other areas. To make this happen in Sinai Israel gave up oil wells she has operating in Sinai. If the piece of paper is given up then what a disaster that policy has been and if Egypt becomes an Islamic state linked with Syria Iran Lebanon, Hamas it can only mean war. Rea Psalm 83 of the Bible and see what they are planning. Never before in history this happen except now.

Not a street battle in sight.<br /><br /><br />Islamic Terrorism in Toronto<br /><br />By Douglas J. Hagmann & Judi McLeod<br /><br />From letter bombs to terror cells, much is left unreported<br /><br />A joint investigation conducted by the Northeast Intelligence Network and Canada Free Press appears to have uncovered a nest of Islamist activity inside the greater Toronto, Ontario, Canada area (GTA) that has its tentacles reaching over the border into the United States and well into other foreign countries. Ms. McLeod, founding editor of Canada Free Press with her many law enforcement sources and many years of investigative journalistic experience, and Mr. Hagmann, director of the Northeast Intelligence Network with his two-and-a-half decades of investigative experience, have ventured far beyond the headlines tempered by political correctness and the limited media disclosure involving the case of Adel Mohamed ARNAOUT, the Toronto "mail bomber" and his place of residence known as the "Bombay Bunker."<br /><br />Adel Mohamed ARNAOUT, 37, a Muslim immigrant from Lebanon living at 176 Ashdale Avenue, Toronto, Ontario was arrested by undercover Toronto Police officers late last Thursday night in a dramatic takedown at a Don Mills ESSO service station in the in Thorncliffe Park Drive -- Overlea area of East York -- about 6 kilometers north of the suspect's residence. ARNAOUT is charged with three counts of attempted murder, three counts of intending to cause an explosion, one count of criminal harassment and one count of possession of explosive material.<br /><br />His takedown was reportedly the culmination of police investigation that began in June and encompassed "three letter bombs" sent to three seemingly unrelated victims in Toronto and Guelph, Ontario. According to information obtained exclusively through this joint investigation, the "takedown" was deliberately executed at that time by quick-thinking investigative operatives to avoid a potential loss of life of others at the hands of ARNAOUT. At the time of his arrest, a reportedly cash-strapped ARNAOUT was driving a late model rental vehicle and carrying explosives in amounts far in excess and much more lethal than contained within the letter bombs he reportedly sent to date. He was a three-month resident of the "Bombay Bunker," a dwelling located at 176 Ashdale Avenue, aptly nicknamed due to its unique, strangely fortified, bunker-like appearance and additions, the varying number of occupants and the frequency of its many obviously-Islamic visitors.What is "Occupation"https://www.blogger.com/profile/08237879055691019968noreply@blogger.com
