A Glimpse of What the Arab Winter Will Bring

Please, Mr. President, remind us one more time of how you were instrumental in the overthrow of Egyptian dictator, Hosni Mubarak--certainly not a nice guy, but he did maintain a peace with Israel, a rare undertaking for a Middle Eastern country, and he was an ally to the U.S. How exactly is this Arab Spring, which you encouraged, Mr. President, how is it benefiting the U.S. and other Western nations?

It's not!! No way! This may go down as one of the stupidest moves in foreign policy since the ushering in of the Iranian Ayotollah in 1979, compliments of Jimmy Carter. If you were wise, Mr. President, which you have shown us over and over again that you are not, you would run from this mess and encourage your cheerleading squad in the American Pravda to rewrite history and take your face off the origins of this "freedom" undertaking.

Time is not proving to be a friend to you, Mr. President. Read the latest results of the Arab Spring movement in Egypt, via Gateway Pundit:

Report: 400 Al-Qaeda Terrorists Have Already Moved Into the Sinai Peninsula

"According to Al-Hayyat television, 400 Al-Qaeda members have already moved into the Sinai Peninsula.
The Jerusalem Post reported:


'Egyptian security official tells Al-Hayyat that Palestinian, Beduin, foreign citizens seeking to carry out attacks, have already attacked.

Over 400 al-Qaida members have made their way into the Sinai Peninsula, a senior Egyptian security official told the Al-Hayyat satellite television station on Monday.

Egyptian security officials were pursuing the terrorists, who are composed of Palestinians, Beduins and foreign Arab citizens, according to the report. The group was reportedly planning to carry out terror attacks in Egypt, the official said.

Additionally, the terrorists carried out “a number of attacks against [Egyptian] security forces in the Sinai city of El Arish,” the official told Al-Hayyat.

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu on Monday also addressed Egypt’s security problems in Sinai. “Egypt has had difficulties exercising its sovereignty over Sinai,” he said at a meeting of the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee.

“We saw this in the two gas pipe explosions that occurred there,” Netanyahu said. “What’s happening in Sinai is that global terrorist organizations are meddling there and their presence is increasing because of the connection between Sinai and Gaza.”'"


If that isn't bad enough, the foreign policy genius in the White House is contributing our hard-earned tax dollars to the Islamization of Egypt.

G8 To Give First $20B, Then $40B in Jizya for Muslim Brotherhood's "Arab Spring"

"In a move that defies logic and the will to survive, the leaders of the G8 plan to pay $20 billion in jiyza to the onslaught of Islamic supremacist movements across the world. One has to wonder what the new Nazi party in Egypt is slated to get.

The G8, more of the one world government, is driven by Islamic supremacists and leftists. 'One neck, one leash.' (That was Rand, I think.)

G8 have $20B for 'Arab Spring' Politico


'Hoping to encourage the push for freedom and democracy, President Obama and leaders of the G-8 countries announced Friday that they will allow international development banks to provide more than $20 billion to help spur development in the “Arab Spring” counties like Egypt and Tunisia.

A statement released by the G-8 leaders assembled in Deauville, France, did not breakdown how much development banks from each county would provide, but promised to “mobilize substantial bilateral support to scale up this effort.”

"Our collective aim is to ensure that instability does not undermine the process of political reform, and that social cohesion and macroeconomic stability are both sustained,” the statement read.

The statement also did not make clear what specifically the $20 billion in funds were designed to provide the two countries.

Hoping to further encourage the push for freedom and democracy in the Arab world, the statement warned Syria the G-8 countries will seek “further action” if the government continues to use violence to breakup protests in the country where hundreds of protestorshave reportedly been killed by the military.'


UPDATE: G-8 Launches $40 Billion 'Arab Spring' Partnership


'"The "Arab Spring" has high stakes for the G-8 nations—the U.S., Japan, Canada, Russia, France, Germany, Italy and the UK. For the Europeans, the Arab world is on their doorstep: Democracy and prosperity in the region could promote stability and provide new growth opportunities, while their failure might trigger a flood of unwanted migrants. The U.S. would like more stability in a region that has been a source of foreign policy headaches."-from the article'"


Dream on, Mr. President, if you believe that we will see more stability in Egypt than we saw under Mubarak. The Islamists are becoming so comfortable in Egypt that Hamas is moving its headquarters from Syria to Egypt.

Who would have thunk it? We owe all this Islamization in the land of the Nile to you, Mr. President. I'll betcha when it's all said and done, you won't be so quick to boast about your role in this foreign policy blunder.

Malignant Muslim Spring: Muslim Brotherhood Group Hamas Moving HQ from Syria to Egypt

"Ah yes, more malodorous blossoms off the sharia trees multiplying at warp speed in the lefty loving 'Muslim Spring.'

DF opines, 'In post-Mubarak Egypt, freedom of expression has already taken root, and the country is quickly regaining its place as a magnet for Muslim thought. All shades of jihad are now welcome and have room to flourish. Why, it’s enough to make a neocon kvell.'

Hamas Moving HQ from Syria to Egypt, Warns Netanyahu INN


'Hamas is moving its headquarters from Damascus to Egypt, and the terror group is strengthening itself in the Sinai, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu told the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Security Committee Monday.

He also noted that the Muslim Brotherhood, from which Hamas sprung, also has become a more powerful force in Egypt since the ouster of Hosni Mubarak. The Prime Minister stated his concern about the inability of the provisional military regime in Egypt to exercise sovereignty in the Sinai, which borders Israel and from where Bedouin and Hamas terrorists smuggle weapons from Iran, Sudan, Syria and elsewhere into Gaza.

Al-Qaeda also has brought 400 terrorists into the area, according to an Egyptian official quoted by an Arab news agency,

The Prime Minister confirmed previous reports that Hamas supreme leader Khaled Mashaal has pulled out of Damascus, where his presence and welcome by Syrian President Bashar Assad is an additional worry for him in the face of the continuing uprising.

The vacuum of power in the Sinai has been illustrated by “the two gas explosions that occurred there” this year, Prime Minister Netanyahu told the Knesset committee. “Global terrorist organizations are interfering, there and their presence is increasing because of the geographic connection between Sinai and Gaza."

The Sharon government agreed to pull out of Gaza following the 2005 expulsion of nearly 10,000 Jews in the area. Agreements with Egypt on security in the Sinai began falling apart after Hamas ousted Fatah from Gaza four years ago.

Following the Operation Cast Lead counterterrorist campaign at the end of 2008 and the beginning of 2009, Israel relied on American and European guarantees to monitor the transfer of goods and merchandise from the Sinai to Gaza, but these also have eroded. The opening of the Rafiah crossing this past Saturday has further harmed security.

The de facto dominance of Bedouin tribes and allied terrorists in the Sinai has set the stage for further stockpiling of advanced arms by Hamas and for plotting terrorist attacks at tourist and holy sites in Egypt.'"
