Archie, that's why I don't miss you because you start or end each post with an insult but I guess that's part of your DNA so I'll let it pass. What would be in the best interests of the U.S. would be a secular, democratically elected government that is not anti-American and is not dominated by Islamofascists....think Isreal.......except without all those pesky Jews that the Arabs want to exterminate.

As you may or may not know, nature abhors a vacumn so the question in Egypt is what fills the void. If it ends up being dominated by the Mulsim Brotherhood then we will have lots of problems with Egypt for years or decades to come, especially with their ability to disrupt movement through the Suez Canal and the likely end of decades of peace with Israel. I think at this point its anybody's guess and the events are most likely beyond our control and a lot seems to depend on what the military does.

As for your jab about not being a foreign policy expert, I can tell you at least I knew the Muslim Brotherhood is not a secular movement that eschews violence, which is more than we can say about the Messiah's head of intelligence. I also knew about the London terrorist arrests which is more than we can say about the same guy. I think both you and I would be considered experts when compared to him.

If you have not read it, I recommend you get The Looming Tower by Lawrence Wright. Very well researched book that delves extensively into the Muslim Brotherhood and how it was a precursor to al Queda. So while I may not be an expert I am well read in this area but since I am not getting paid I will stop here.
