Countries do not appreciate military threats and economic blackmail any more and this is shown by Egypt this weekend. As well, the many countries in South America who have shed their force-fed ideas of US ‘democracy’, a total fiction, are now looking to real home style democracy.
It may have shortcomings but it will be independent. They may make some mistakes but whatever happens, the mistakes will be theirs, not forced on them by the disgraced CIA as the sorcerer or the evil sorcerers apprentice, Israel, the most disliked country, not just in the middle east, but in the world and rightly so. It thumbs its nose at the UN and with the US veto, UN resolutions can be dismissed out of hand and totally ignored, adding to the sense of power they wield over the world’s superpower, (?) a country now financially and morally bankrupt.
So if America was capable of applying rational thought to this newly emerging democracy, currently under military rule, temporarily, they would try and recover some of their universally lost respect by shedding the evil Israeli connection, being a friend not a bully to countries, if they can remember how that used to be. By not forcing policy on Egypt, not making them subservient to the almighty aid dollar, (that is, aid to the US only) and then discontinuing their on-going destabilisation program, probably already on the tenth iteration in the halls of the White House
I fear for Egypt’s ability to avoid the traps of all countries that come under the ‘spell’ of the United States of America, now a shell of what it was for the first 150 years. How could one not have been impressed with US achievements until then.
Sadly, not any more.
