Even before the start of the political transformation
through which Egypt
is still passing, there was a movement demanding that the relationship which
the country was having with the rest of the world be altered. More
specifically, the people wanted to see the relationship that the late President
Sadat had forged with America
to be discarded in favor of something else; something that was more normal and
more sane if such thing could be worked out with an America they saw had transformed
into an oddity they could no longer understand or trust.
Even before the popular movement to transform the political
landscape of Egypt had
started, the people could detect something fishy in what America was doing in Egypt
and the greater Middle East . They saw that
what was done was conceived and implemented as if the orders had come from Tel
Aviv not Washington .
The people of Egypt could
see that America 's
activities always aimed to benefit not America
or the American people but Israel
and the Jewish people. The Egyptians saw this happen even when the cost to America in
blood, treasure and respect around the world was deemed to be massive.
Meanwhile, the group of people in Egypt
who had a more expanded understanding of the situation in America was beginning to see how
hopeless that situation was becoming. They could see that the Jewish lobby was
no longer a lobby but a de facto shadow government that had completely
overshadowed the elected government of the nation. America was no longer run
from the paralyzed White House or the gridlocked Congress but run by a mob of
Jewish journalists, of so-called think tank pundits and an assortment of me-too
characters who got on every bandwagon of barking dogs where they joined the
chorus in the praising of everything Jewish or Israeli, and the damning of
everything Muslim or Arab.
As to the more distrustful and more skeptical elements in
that group of Egyptians, they could see how useful the Mubarak regime had
become to Jewish and Israeli interests. Yet they saw how Israel – working in concert with the Jewish
shadow government in America
– was undermining that regime for no apparent reason than it was an expression
of the Jewish culture. The situation so disgusted those Egyptians, it was like
someone was scraping the bottom of the Jewish barrel of filthy behavior to
fetch the worst kind of residue and throw it at Egypt . Nothing in their eyes could
be more Jewish and more toxic than that.
Aware of Egypt's relationship with America since the time
when the Jewish influence was beginning to make itself felt in that country at
the end of the 1950s, the skeptics in Egypt have known of America's acquired
tendency to organize what amounts to the Jewish style gang rape of any country
that refused to play the role ordered for it by the Jews. They knew that this
continued to happen even after it was proven that the role so ordered would be
meaningless and useless to the interests of the Jews or Israel . The
effective saying as they have come to know it boiled down to this: It was
ordered by the Jews therefore it must be done no matter the consequences, and
America will pay any price in blood or in treasure to see to it that when the
Jews command something, the thing is done. Period; end of discussion.
And so, it happened that to prevent Egypt from developing its economy, America organized the world financial
institutions and its allies to basically throw a gang rape party, and assault
the Egyptian economy at a time when the country was looking for a way to finance
the construction of the Aswan
dam and hydroelectric station. Nasser was the President of Egypt at the time,
and he called on the Arab nations to use their oil wealth as leverage to push
back against America 's
accomplices in their effort to commit a Jewish style gang rape of his country.
While Nasser 's call was
still sinking in, the Jewish American scheme was failing because the Egyptians
had found a way to finance and construct their cherished project. But this did
not deter the descendants of the would-be rapists of yesteryear. In fact,
everyone of them during the Mubarak era and shortly after it – be they eunuchs,
mentally challenged or emotionally disturbed – they, their cousins and their
neighbors jumped on the bandwagon and called on America to attempt once again
to organize the gang rape of Egypt even though the Mubarak regime was already
serving the interests of Israel, and his legacy was maintained after his
departure. Those sick Americans did what they did because it served them like a
therapeutic exercise through which they alleviated the deficiencies that
plagued them.
Allow me now to digress for a moment and relay a story I was
told long ago but never mentioned because I did not see a need for that. I see
the need now in the context of what I am discussing. The story is this: Even
after obtaining his American citizenship, Fareed Zakaria still could not refer
to himself as being American. The way he mustered the courage to do so the
first time was the moment when he said: look at the size of the aid “we” give
to Egypt .
Apparently, he made that vocal outburst knowing full well that Egypt was getting no aid from America but was getting the short end of a deal
that was almost criminal in its lopsided bent in favor of Israel and America
at the expense of Egypt .
Still, Zakaria got his therapeutic moment and felt American which may be a good
thing. But he also contributed to the screwy process of decision making in that
pathetic nation.
And while all that was going on in America – in the time between the Nasser era and the current era – the Arab nations which
are blessed with an abundance of oil reserves began to understand that they
were in the driver's seat. They took Nasser 's
advice and benefited from it by developing the courage to stand up to their
clients and demand a higher payment for their commodity. They succeeded as can
be seen from the following figures: In the 1970s, an average popular car was
purchased for the price of 2000 barrels of oil. Nowadays, an average popular
car is purchased for the price of 200 barrels of oil. That's a ten fold
improvement.
The oil wealthy Arab nations have not forgotten that
history. They know that Egypt
has paid a high price to uphold the honor and the wealth of all Arabs. This is
why they are returning the favor now by lending money to Egypt in its
time of need, and thus alleviate the pain that Jewish America is inflicting on
the country.
