Egypt’s President resigns...why important to America ?

So now Egypt’s President has resigned.

Why is that so important to America?

This “revolution” in Egypt…is it a democratic revolution?

Or will it become an Islamic fundamentalist revolution?
   
Here is what worries me…there is a major danger that the Muslim
Brotherhood will find its way into a successor coalition government. 

If the Brotherhood takes over, bringing an Iranian style fundamentalist Islamic regime to Egypt, then the chances are high that the newly elected government will embrace the Muslim Brotherhood.

Now think about the populations involved.  Egypt has 81 million people.  Iran has 66 million. The next most populous nation in the region is Algeria at 35 million. The combined population of Tunisia, Morocco, Algeria, Libya, Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Aden, Oman, the UAE, Kuwait, Qatar, and Yemen is 185 million.  So Egypt and Iran have a population almost equal to that of these other nations combined.  A fundamentalist Egypt allied with Iran would sweep the region.    

Working in tandem with Iran, these two nations would then cast a giant shadow over the entire region.  From Morocco to Iraq, there would be the threat of a genuine caliphate, realizing the most central goal of the Islamic fundamentalists.

As Americans, we need to demand that President Obama support the Egyptian military as they transition their country to a democratic form of government.  The US should demand that the Muslim brotherhood play no role in the government.    

Congress needs to send a clear message to Egypt that we will withhold our $1.3 billion of military aidif the Muslim Brotherhood is included in any government or coalition.    

If Obama fails to take the lead in doing this, he will be responsible for the loss of Egypt and perhaps of the entire region - with all its oil - to forces directly hostile to the United States. 

Will Obama stand up to Muslim extremists?

Not likely since it’s been widely reported that in his book, Audacity of Hope, he said  "I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction."

Obama apologizes to Europe for America

Dear Mr. Obama,

It is absolutely pathetic that a president of the United States feels the need to disparage America while in foreign countries, and to make apologies for America.

America leads, America succeeds, and America is willing to take a stand.

It's DISGRACEFUL for you to show your disdain for the American dream by apologizing to European countries and Turkey.

I'm proud to be an American, and unlike your wife, I've ALWAYS been proud to be an American.

I DON'T apologize!

You should be ASHAMED of your "apology tour".

I'm ashamed of you.
