Synagogue torched in Tunisia: Jewish leader
(AFP) – 5 hours ago

TUNIS — Arsonists set fire to a synagogue in the southern Gabes region of Tunisia, a leader of the local Jewish community said Tuesday.

"Someone set fire to the synagogue on Monday night and the Torah scrolls were burned," Trabelsi Perez told AFP, criticising the lack of action by the security services to stop the attack.

"What astonished me was that there were police not far from the synagogue," added Perez, who is also head of the Ghriba synagogue on the island of Djerba, the oldest synagogue in Africa.

Twenty-one people were killed, including 16 European tourists, when Al-Qaeda bombers attacked Ghriba in April 2002.

According to a Pew opinion survey of Egyptians from June 2010, 59 percent said they back Islamists. Only 27% said they back modernizers. Half of Egyptians support Hamas. Thirty percent support Hizbullah and 20% support al Qaida. Moreover, 95% of them would welcome Islamic influence over their politics. When this preference is translated into actual government policy, it is clear that the Islam they support is the al Qaida Salafist version.

Eighty two percent of Egyptians support executing adulterers by stoning, 77% support whipping and cutting the hands off thieves. 84% support executing any Muslim who changes his religion.

[Hugo Chavez]

The Muslim Brotherhood is going to use the democratic process and whatever figurehead they can as a Trojan horse to gain power and implement Sharia, terrorism and to continue the conflict with Israel. They do not believe Israel should exist, they pretty much are Hamas in Gaza and they raise money for Hamas etc here in America. Go look up their teachings, words and thoughts...it's all there. They are not a moderate faction, not even close. I can't believe how some people in our govt. and media can simply plug their ears and put a blindfold on when discussing the current situation in Egypt....I was watching Farid Zakaria and he was sucking the Muslim Brotherhoods dicks, it was sad. He was pushing them as some moderate force for good that doesn't have any blood on its hands. It was funny hearing him say things like "Well, if they took power...uh, a potential downside would be women having fewer voices..." and other stuff that was just fucking stupid.  No mention of their "Kill Israel" stance, their support for terrorism, fund raising for terrorism in the U.S......nothing.

What a joke.

why are you telling me to go look up stuff?... I just agreed with 3333.

[George Whorewell]

Hahaha when it comes to suicide bombers being supported by a majority you are!   

Well, if Egypt truly becomes a democracy and it decides to put the Muslim brotherhood into a prominent role, then I think we can say for certain that Arabs are low lifes that should be exterminated for the good of humanity. We will then have Arab Muslim Nazi Regimes in Egypt, Lebanon and Gaza. Persian Muslim Nazi Iran will be pulling the strings with failed states Yemen and Pakistan soon to collapse as well. If Tunisia hasn't become a terrorist state  yet, it soon will. Afterward Jordan is certain to follow suit.

My point is that for years we have heard this nonsense about giving the Muslim scum population of the Eastern Hemisphere the freedom to choose their own leaders. The rationale has been that these poor miserable souls will gravitate toward secular humanism and away from radical Islam. If this theory is disproved (and it certainly looks that way) then I prefer an America puppet to any of the terrorist regimes these barbarians democratically elect to rule them.

Obama green-lighting Muslim Brotherhood participation in Egyptian government
hot air ^ | 2/1/11 | Ed Morrissey

________________________ ________________________ __


Welcome to the new reality of cold, hard choices in Egypt, and the consequences of democracy in regions where radicalism thrives. In order to stay ahead of the crisis in Egypt, the Obama administration yesterday signaled that it supports the participation of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egyptian politics as long as they renounce violence and commit to democracy:

The Obama administration said for the first time that it supports a role for groups such as the Muslim Brotherhood, a banned Islamist organization, in a reformed Egyptian government.

The organization must reject violence and recognize democratic goals if the U.S. is to be comfortable with it taking part in the government, the White House said. But by even setting conditions for the involvement of such nonsecular groups, the administration took a surprise step in the midst of the crisis that has enveloped Egypt for the last week. …

That's not a surprising point of view from you GW.  However, i can see why that is preferable to a Taliban style leadership, i get that.  But i also get that the worst thing the United States can do right now is get overly involved.

Obama Urges Mubarak Not to Run Again
nytimes.com ^ | Feb. 1, 2011 | Mark Landler

________________________ ________________________ ____


WASHINGTON — President Obama has told the embattled president of Egypt, Hosni Mubarak, that he should not run for another term in elections in the fall, effectively withdrawing American support for its closest Arab ally, according to American diplomats in Cairo and Washington.

Al Arabiya television, citing unnamed sources, reported that Mr. Mubarak would announce in a nationwide address Tuesday evening that he would not run for another term.

The message was conveyed to Mr. Mubarak by Frank G. Wisner, a seasoned former diplomat with deep ties to Egypt, these officials said. Mr. Wisner’s message, they said, was not a blunt demand for Mr. Mubarak to step aside now, but firm counsel that he should make way for a reform process that would culminate in free and fair elections in September to elect a new Egyptian leader.

This back channel message, authorized directly by Mr. Obama, would appear to tip the administration beyond the delicate balancing act it has performed in the last week — resisting calls for Mr. Mubarak to step down, even as it has called for an “orderly transition” to a more politically open Egypt.

Source: Obama Asks Mubarak Not to Seek Re-Election (Despite Admin. claims, Obama picked sides)
Fox News ^ | 2/1/2011 | fox news

________________________ ________________________ _________________-


President Obama has urged Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak not to stand for re-election this fall, Fox News has learned, as U.S. officials hold talks with both government and opposition leaders about what comes next after days of massive protests.

The message from Obama comes as Mubarak reportedly prepares to address his country. Al Arabiya reports that the 30-year ruler of Egypt will use the address to announce he will not run for another term.

Whether that will placate demonstrators remains to be seen. But the Obama administration has been holding talks to make clear Washington's desire for a peaceful transition, according to State Department spokesman P.J. Crowley. U.S. Ambassador to Egypt Margaret Scobey met with opposition leader Mohamed ElBaradei in Cairo to convey that message. Crowley described the meeting as "part of our public outreach to convey support for orderly transition in Egypt."

I wouldn't call that a bad move 333.  Egyptians want democracy, Obama nor Bush nor any president of the USA can stop the will of the people.  You want him to go in and bomb them or something? 

If you put all of the US eggs in Mubarak's basket, you end up being hated yet again by another country in the middle east.  Exactly what the US does not need.

The Egyptians hate us
Washington Times ^ | 2/1/11 | editor



The Egyptian people are reentering history. The masses have awakened, swarming in the streets against autocracy, chanting “Yes we can!” It’s too bad they hate America.In June 2009, President Obama launched his much heralded outreach effort to the Muslim people with a speech in Cairo. Now the people of that city are clamoring for reform, but their view of the United States is worse than it was at the height of the George W. Bush administration. According to survey data from the Pew Global Attitudes Project released in June 2010, the United States had a 30 percent approval

Commenting is not exactly 'butting' in.  I would rather he leave it be, but Egypt being a country with which we have had good relations, it's probably best to go with the will of the people.

Egypt crisis: Israel faces danger in every direction
The Telegraph ^ | 2/1/2011 | David Horovitz



The Middle East is in ferment at the moment – but despite the general excitement, the outcome could be a grim one for Israel, and for the West more generally.

In the past few weeks, we have seen a president ousted in Tunisia. We've seen protests in Yemen. We've seen Iran essentially take control of Lebanon, where its proxy, Hizbollah, has ousted a relatively pro-Western prime minister and inserted its own candidate. We've seen the King of Jordan rush to sack his cabinet amid escalating protests. We've seen reports that similar demonstrations are planned for Syria, where the president, Bashar Assad, will find it far harder to get away with gunning down the crowds than his father did in 1982. And most dramatically, we are seeing the regime in Egypt – the largest, most important Arab country – totter, as President Mubarak faces unprecedented popular protest, and the likelihood that he will have to step down sooner rather than later.

It is tempting to be smug. Egypt's blink-of-an-eye descent into instability underlines afresh the uniqueness of Israel, that embattled sliver of enlightened land in a largely dictatorial region. Those who like to characterise it as the root of all the Middle East's problems look particularly foolish: the people on the streets aren't enraged by Israel, but because their countries are so unlike Israel, so lacking in the freedoms and economic opportunities that both Israeli Jews and Israeli Arabs take for granted.

Yet the country is deeply concerned. The main worry is over a repeat of the events in Iran a little over 30 years ago, when popular protest ousted the Shah, only to see him replaced by a far more dangerous, corrupt, misogynist and intolerant regime. Iran is plainly delighted by what is unfolding. With peerless hypocrisy,
