#3  if we want to defund Egypt, the media needs to begin calling the MB and Salafists 'right wing' or 'ultraconservative'

then get some posts on insurgent lefty websites saying 'why are we funding right wingers'

#2  Wikileaks in Open Source media showed that cables from the US Embassy a year before the Arab-ding, reveled the US Embassy believed that the Salalfists held the strongest opposition to Mubarak, so is the US really surprised?....please, not a US-cent to Islamic Republicans, OK?

#1  Interesting, at least to this old fart, that in all the comments there is no mention of the how and who got us allied with Egypt. It's like the cold war and Soviet pressure (aka Nasser) and the Israeli situation never existed.

It's all "US supported dictator, US bad".
