Is it just me or are there those who understand that while we applaud the incredible efforts of the oppressed in the Arab Muslim world, there will never be a democracy in these countries! I am continually amazed at the masses who can look at facts and still reject them out of hand. While we applaud the sacrifices and suffering of many in Egypt, as well as other countries in the Middle East, we recognize the end result will be a takeover by the Muslim Brotherhood who will initiate Shariah law. This places the power and authority in the hands of people who are driven by a religion where individual rights and freedoms are suppressed. The naysayers said No! They told us we would have a democracy in Egypt instead of a dictatorship. They were wrong! Instead what we now have are extreme Islamists in charge and their number one priority is to end the peace treaty with Israel that has served the Egyptians well for many years. But what exactly is behind this? What is the driving force that has stirred this Islamist revolution in recent months. Simply put, it is the attempt to form an Iranian led Super state whose chief aim is the annihilation of Jews and the end of the State of Israel. This is the often stated goal and these people will never stop trying to bring this to pass. My many friends in Egypt are terrified at what is happening daily on the ground in their country and fear for their own lives. They tell me their fear is that America and the West will stand by and do nothing while this extremism spreads across the Middle East.
So, what is the world to do? What are we to do? Stand up and speak out in support of Israel's right to exist is a given. But, we must do more. So I am calling on every single one of us who believe in freedom to contact our leaders and demand that they stand with Israel and if need be step up and stop the Iranian machine before it is too late! Time is running out and when they acquire the bomb they will use it. Just my thoughts!
