#1 Why don't we immediately hand over any Egyptian AQ members that he have in GITMO so that they can get to it?

#2 Gotta love the moral rot, racism, and barbarism in full flower. The Egyptian government, not the psycho killers, are responsible for the murder. The government "knuckled under" to US pressure to, you know, have representation with an embattled, elected government in an Arab state under attack by ruthless psycho killers. It makes me sick to think even one cent of US taxpayers' money goes to subsidize the sewer on the Nile.

#5 Hmmmm

"Aboul Gheit also took pains to point out that Sherif had not been appointed ambassador in Iraq and that Egypt does not have a full embassy there. Sherif's credentials, with the title of chief of mission, "prove the falsity of what has been said by some concerning an upgrade in the level of representation and the establishment of an Egyptian embassy in Iraq and the conduct of full diplomatic relations," "

Sounds like a surrender to me. Lets review first the Egyption gov says they will send full ambasodor then Al Queda kills the lead scout result Egypt Surrenders and denies ever placing a real ambasodor to Iraq. Surrender Surrender. The swift ""take vengeance on the killers of the head of the Egyptian mission in Iraq" I wont hold my breath. Although if they wanted to help and actually be a leader in the Arab world for the good and lead the Arab world into the 21st century they could offer a military detachment to help the fledgling Iraqi gov police the Anbar province help thier Arab brothers get a huge portion of the infedel occupiers out of Iraq. but in Reality they are part of the problem not the solution all beit a less dangerous part.

#8 I like the idea of handing over Egyptians in gitmo over, but why stop there? Hand over all the Arab prisoners to Egypt, kind of like subcontracting the prison out to them. If by some fate a few (or all) die in their custody them that's just the breaks. We know that Egypt would respect their koranic and civil rights IAW to their laws. Let the ACLU, HRW, and UN bitch about how they are treated in Egypt. Wonder if they get honey glazed chicken in Egyptian prison?
