Lies of Obama

This is one of the most cynical moments in the history of US foreign policy in the Middle East.  And the propaganda of the Obama administration is based on the notion that Arabs are idiots and that "we can fool them".  I can just imagine the racists around Obama making those arguments.  Last Saturday in the New York Times, it was reported that the Obama administration tried to contact the Ministry of Telecommunications in Egypt to protest the cut off of internet and phones but that the land lines were down.  I kid you not.  Can you imagine how dumb they think we are? If the US wants to deliver a message anywhere in the Middle East about the welfare of Israel and its occupation, they would dispatch a military force to land in one's bed room.  And today, in the front page of the New York Times, there is a long article about the diplomatic adventure of Frank Wisner and it said that Obama delivered a message to Mubarak that he can't run for another term.  Are you kidding me? This is the issue?  This is portrayed as Obama's pressure on Mubarak? As if there was an option after all this for Mubarak to run for another term. This is like Obama telling Mubarak that his last election should not be seen as honest, or that he asked him that Jamal Mubarak, who fled to London, should not succeed him.  What is next? I expect to read in the New York Times that Obama has pressured Mubarak to not run for president-for-life position.
