Wolves as Monks and Mothers Theresa

Here is a group of blood thirsty, flesh eating savages calling itself “The Working Group on Egypt” doing its thing again with one purpose and one purpose only, that of adding Egyptian blood to the flow of blood now running in the cities and fields of Libya, Iraq, Syria and occupied Palestine where Jewish ideology and American weaponry have married to spawn horror on a scale that would satisfy the fantasies expressed in the Old Jewish Testament.

Standing under an umbrella with the lofty name of “Carnegie Endowment for International Peace,” members of the group wrote a letter to President Obama, and had it posted on the website of that institution on September 25, 2014. Pretending to be as saintly as monks, and compassionate as Mother Theresa, they said the things that tell any intelligent observer a different reality. It is that these people hunger for Arab and Muslim flesh, and they thirst for Arab and Muslim blood.

Everywhere they went: Libya, Iraq, Syria and Palestine, endless horrors have piled up … which are still ongoing, and showing no promise for an end in sight. And everywhere they were kept out: Algeria, Tunisia and Egypt, the transformation of society has produced an outcome that was infinitely more benign than the pains produced in other places where similar transformations have taken place.

Despite these historical facts, which are known to Jews and to Americans more than anyone else – the first because they were slaughtered like sheep throughout history and throughout the planet; the second because they experienced the bloodiest revolution and civil war ever known to man – the group of ten that signed the letter of horror have expressed not a wish that the American President offer Egypt the assistance it may need to help stabilize the situation in neighboring Libya, but expressed their dismay that the two presidents will meet.

Yes, that's what they did. In fact, this is how they start the letter: “We are dismayed that during your brief stay in New York for the United Nations General Assembly you will include Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi on the short list of foreign leaders with whom you will meet one-on-one.” And get this, my friend; they go on to say the following: “This meeting will be understood around the world, and in Egypt, as...” This is so surprising an assertion; it has the effect of your dog suddenly talking to you for the first time to say what the neighborhood will think of you. How the hell would a dog know that? How the hell would a group of ten idiots know what the world will understand or what Egypt will understand?

It is not that they don't know what Egypt is doing in the fight against extremism; it is that they are spinning the good work done there to make it look like a bad thing. To this end, they are accusing al-Sisi of cultivating radicalism and instability in Egypt at a time when the whole world is knocking at Egypt's door with investment proposals due to the stability that Sisi has brought to the country. All economic indicators that matter have doubled or almost doubled in that country: the growth rate, foreign direct investment, the stock market, tourism and what have you.

Despite all that, the most ignorant of all ignoramuses on this planet are trying to tell the President of the United States it is more joyful, more uplifting and more satisfying to see spectacles such as those unfolding in Libya, Gaza, Iraq and Syria than to see projects such as the twinning of the Suez Canal, the building of half a million housing units, the reclamation and irrigation of a hundred thousand new acres of desert land, the addition of 600 million cubic feet of natural gas into the network of pipelines, and the myriad other projects which are started in Egypt each and every day.

Perhaps the imbeciles of that group view all of that as instability because earth movers, tractors, bulldozers, cranes, drilling rigs and machines running at full capacity – create the kind of movement and noise they cannot cope with.

If this is the case, they should ask to be sent into orbit – not exactly into the International Space Station where some work is done – but into a private capsule where nothing will be done, and where they will enjoy the absolute quiet of outer space.

As to the rest of us, we'll say in one voice: good riddance.
