I received this: "I'd like to remain anonymous on this one. In addition to being close to Mubarak as mentioned in the piece you linked to, Frank Wisner is very close to many of Egypt's oligarchs and his brother Graham, a lawyer, has represented the business interests of several of them. Which is why I chuckled when I read that the State department had said that Wisner "will meet Egyptian officials to urge them to embrace broad economic and political changes that can pave the way for free and fair elections."
