It is not that they don't believe it; rather that it is only part of the story - again as merely the latest example of Arab paranoia about the U.S., Israel etc. . . . Witness the amazing Mossad shark.

Or are you going to try to tell us that U.S. support for the Egyptian Government prompts statements such as "the goal of the US is to weaken and divide Islam."

What part of "partly" is it you don't understand?

To all you guys supporting this revolution, you better hope when Mubarak is ousted some hardline Islamic party doesnt take over
Seemingly Phil, Danmand doesn't care. Certainly the members of the TERB "we hate Israel club" are probably overcome with joy at the thought.

Now you have descended to the level of Togay and Fucki.

Yup, the usual suspects. They hate America and Israel, but they sure dont mind the protection USA offers to Canada and to a lesser extent to Europe

That would be unfortunate, however, although you may not think you sound that way, it comes across that no other considerations are important other than the overthrow of the current Egyptian Government. Certainly not the possiblity of a anti-Western, anti-Israeli Islamist government

yes must protect Eretz Israel at all costs, even if it means propping up brutal dictatorships that kill people on their streets.

You just really do not understand. It is irrelevant what you and I want, or what the american president want. It is irrelevant what is in our interest. It is marxist dogma that a repressive and corrupt regime egventually will be overthrown by the people. It has been so all through history.

If the "revolution" results in an anti-western regime in Egypt, the west will have to accept that, and hopefully in other places avoid propping up a repressive and corrupt regime, but instead support democracy and side with the people instead of dictators.

Usually to be replaced by another repressive and corrupt regime and perhaps even worse than its predecessor. 1917 Russia, 1933 Germany, 1949 China, 1978 Iran, etc. That is the lesson of history.

LOL

Ouch

The question we should be asking ourselves is do we really need to care?

The vast majority of the time whether we want to or not, yes.
There is the issue, are writers in Sweden talking about Canadian policy toward Egypt?

Why are you looking for canadian and danish policies towards Egypt. They would be insignificant, that is if these countries had any such.

Insignificant countries means insignificant policies.
Canada is the 7th or 8th richest country in the world, I hardly consider that insignificant.

I take your point on Denmark though, half the size of Ohio is a large congressional district, not a country.
