Egypt: Going the Mullahs' way

Obama got his wish: pushing for democracy, he'll get a military junta ruling Egypt until September. After that the best organised party will assume power: the Muslim Brotherhood. And just like the former president Jimmy Carter assured the success of the coup against the Shah of Iran, another rogue nation will emerge. The naïvité of the US administration knows no limits.

Who's next? Surely Algeria is rife for upheaval and the emergence of extremist Muslim leaders there. Syria - already a terrorist hoodlum state - and Jordan, and possibly Saudi Arabia appear to be next in line to be lost as allies in the future.
