Egypt is the #1 example of the American empires malfeasance and incompetence. Completely abandoned revolution, we continue to financially support the military

Egypt is the #1 example of the American empires malfeasance and incompetence. Completely abandoned revolution, we continue to financially support the military dictatorship. Go read Obama's Cairo speech and laugh at what a total crock of shit it is, and how by extension Obama is a bought and paid for clown. Meanwhile the Western press does what it can to demonize the muslin brotherhood while white washing the current junta. And why? Because Egypt is the most populous ME country, borders Israel, and has the Suez canal, it is deemed strategically too important by our elite to allow self rule. Fuck the American empire, responsible for the genocidal killings of millions since 2001

US uses Egypt to project military power in the region. >responsible for the genocidal killings of millions since 2001 The US did not apply the extreme repression required to keep the religious sects in the region from killing each other. That doesn't mean the US is genocidal, it means the Middle East is.

> Egypt is the #1 example of the American empires malfeasance and incompetence. Libya, Syria are much better examples of mishandling a situation. Egypt is fine from geopolitical point of view.

I will certainly laugh at Obama's Cairo speech, you know why? Never in the history of US did a president address people of One faith exclusively. I do not consider Obama a bad guy but you cannot charm your way out with certain groups. May be he hoped his Muslim father connection will give him cover, it made him look worse and gave credence to all sorts of rumors about his faith. The world is a better place with America Policing, its a thankless job. You are blamed for showing up (Iraq) and you are blamed for not showing up (Syria). edit: I actually agree with lot of Obama's foreign policy of his second term, where he pivoted to Asia and left the dumpster fire called Middle East to the real stake holders, Turks, Saudis, Iranians and Europeans.
