EGYPT AND THE COVER OF SYRIA:






















Now I realize I've not addressed the issue of Egypt for well over a month now, but I can assure you there remains a great deal to discuss.

As is always the case with me, let me attempt to keep this as unacademic as possible.

It's no mystery the current Egyptian leadership has taken full advantage of the complete distraction that continues in Syria.

Having said that, many Westerners simply don't realize just how neutralized the Muslim Brotherhood has become and if you don't think so, just call their best friend Mr Erdogan in Turkey and ask him!

If we realize the Egyptian leadership has taken advantage of the Syrian crisis, we still have to ask the question, " why hasn't someone cried foul"?

Well, here is my answer.

Who is available to do so?

The GCC is firmly in the corner of the Egyptian government.

The Israelis are ecstatic over the whole situation in Egypt to the point they are allowing the Egyptian military to fly over Gaza.. Just think about that statement for a minute.

The Tsrar!! He is already heading down the road of getting out the military hardware catalog and letting the Egyptian Generals gaze at it like little kids at Christmas time.

The Ottoman then?

Well, yes EgoDan is fuming over the destruction of the Muslim Brotherhood, but the fires of Syria are too close to his own house and the Kurds are walking around with buckets full of gasoline!

The Iranians? Nope .... no help there.... The old Sunni / Shia issue regardless of what anyone tries to tell you.

Jordan?

Forget.... the King is happy as happy could be... He may even move on his own MB members before too long... the timing is right..

Lets face facts.

Next week starts the trial of Morsi and a few other of his loyal lapdogs and the Muslim Brotherhood is simply powerless to do anything about it.

The world may watch... the world may even say a few encouraging words, but the bottom-line is the MB experiment in Egypt has failed, at least for years to come.

Oh ya.

Nobody and I mean nobody is happier than the Royal families of the GCC.

SIDE NOTE:

Starting Friday.. I am going to introduce a new site that talks to the issue of Mexico.

Why am I doing this, well... I will tell you it's more important than most of you think.

If you could do me a favor, please pass the word.. What I have to say about the events and future of Mexico is something I am more and more passionate about.

It will be
