I'm for a peaceful, democratic everywhere however I'm saying the recent history of Egypt shows us that: 1.) Egyptian peace with the West meant the West giving up Egyptian democracy, the Sinai, and $$$, and 2.) There's a large risk that no matter WHO grabs power in Egypt, it will mean the end of the peace deal and therefore a clear threat to the West and specifically to Israel, and 3.) This same scenario may play out in Jordan next. Therefore we're looking at either: a.) On the good side, this uprising results in pro-democracy, pro-West Egypt or b.) On the bad side, this uprising results in a breaking of the 30 year peace deal and war. Lastly I'm saying that both the Bush and Obama administrations, political opposites, have looked at the issue and decided not to mess with the status quo since the risk of (b.) were too great thus the uprising exacerbates them. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:334338 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
