Gideon Rose, editor of Foreign Affairs spoke about Egypt yesterday on the Brian Lehrer Show. Here is an segment of his response to the question of why the US has continued to support the military rulers (listen here):
The US has a relationship with the Egyptian military, has had a relationship essentially the kind of old one it had with Mubarak, right, which is: you deliver stability and peace with Israel and you become essentially a nice docile American client, and we’ll not push you too hard on domestic concerns that you care about. [We will] let you get a pass on that…American policy doesn’t want to fundamentally alienate the powers that be that are going to be ruling Egypt and keeping American interests secure in the region. So, they don’t want to put too much pressure on the military.
Oh, how mundane propping up torturous dictatorships has become. It’s just hard to muster the outrage these days, even if about 1 percent of Obama voters actually know that his administration is working tirelessly to squash any genuine move towards democracy for millions of Egyptians.
The Supreme Council of Armed Forces has usurped new powers, disqualified leading presidential candidates, given itself sweeping control over the budget and drafting Egypt’s new constitution, and has moved to dissolve the newly elected parliament. The U.S. is still sending billions of dollars in aid to Egypt and continues to arm the military rulers, even as they have brutalized peaceful protesters and inhibited a swift return to civilian rule.
As the Cato Institute’s Malou Innocent wrote this week, “U.S. aid continues to support a brutal regime that maintains its authority through the denial of free speech, arbitrary imprisonment, savage repression and routine torture.” Innocent also challenges the notion that propping up Egyptian tyranny is effective for US interests from the perspective of the foreign policy establishment in Washington.
American policy doesn’t want to fundamentally alienate the powers that be that are going to be ruling Egypt and keeping American interests secure in the region. So, they don’t want to put too much pressure on the military.
The president needs to establish a security force of jihadists and attack the general staff and execute them for betraying the revolution. Their families should have happen to them what happened to Saddam's family and the family of Gadaffi. The people did not fight a revolution to live under a military dictatorship. The military has betrayed the people and the revolution.
We know that there are People in Bahrain who want a Transitional Government, and they want a Democracy, and not an Islamic Republic, because an Islamic Republic is not a Democracy, but a Tyrannical Dictatorship.
We have seen this Tyrannical Dictatorship thrust upon the Libyan People by the blood drenched Hillary Clinton and other Clintonites.
Since the blood thirsty Clintonites who falsely claim to love Democracy and Human Rights so much, have the American Fifth Fleet stationed in Bahrain, it should be just a matter of given them the American Constitution that has been Minimally Modified for Bahrain.
It is claimed that certain suggestions failed to meet Arab expectations, but Many Arabs do not agree with the Arab League, and it does not fail to meet Arab expectations, but Radical Fundamentalist Islamic expectations.
If Illegal and Immoral Terrorists can conduct their Criminal Activities against the United Nations Charter, against International Law, and against Domestic Law can conduct their Criminality long enough, then they should be rewarded with Dictatorship of that Country according to the Clintonites, and this was proved with Libya.
We know that America has never been a Democracy, but it is a Wall Streetocracy, with their Puppet Mediaocracy, and Puppet Politicians.
It could be that the American Military Base in Bahrain and other Places will have to close to possibly save America from collapsing because of the Global Financial and Economic Situation.
American policy doesn’t want to fundamentally alienate the powers that be that are going to be ruling Egypt and keeping American interests secure in the region. So, they don’t want to put too much pressure on the military.
The US is making nice with the Egyptian military for the overall purpose of securing Israel's southern flank. If the military were out of the picture, I'm pretty sure the Muslim Brotherhood would have no second thoughts about revising- or breaking- the existing treaty with Israel. If Egypt were to adopt the US constitution- after all we ARE all about democracy, right?- the generals stranglehold on the government and country as a whole would vanish. Or is this a case of 'do as we say, not as we do'?
