Egypt again

Okay, so...here's how it worked. The U.S. government provided some funding to these people in Egypt who wanted to use social media to organize protests. But nothing came of it, and nothing would have come of it, until Wikileaks revealed it to the world. The Egyptian people got the message, whether it was correct or not, that U.S. wouldn't support Mubarak, and there you go.

The young fellow rotting in prison charged with passing the files on to Wikileaks is pleased with the results of his work, as well he should be.

The Israelis, meanwhile, got their yarmulkes in a bunch because Obama isn't calling on Mubarak to massacre his people.

I don't know...you think the Israel lobby is going to attack American leaders for calling for democracy in Egypt? Should Israel get credit for being "the only democracy in the middle east" because they give themselves the right to vote while they try to deny it to everyone else? In any case, aren't Lebanon and Turkey democracies? Are the traitorous Zionists denigrating our NATO ally?
