When acute Desire becomes severe Delusion

Western Europe, North America, Sub-Saharan Africa, Australia, a good part of Asia, and the Middle East (including Egypt) are on the alert, and have been since the rise to power and to prominence of the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS).

And so now, you have this guy who goes by the name, David Hearst, writing an article for a rag that is called Huffington Post, saying that the Islamic State was stoked in all of those places by their leaders, and not just in Iraq or Syria. Or does Hearst really say that?

Well, read the article that came under the title: “Sisi is Pushing Egypt to the Brink” and judge for yourself. Published on June 30, 2015 in the Huffington Post, the article starts like this: “Railing against the inability of the state to deal with the militant insurgency he himself stoked, Sisi pledged...” Since Egypt finds itself in the company of nations making up more than half the Globe, what applies to Egypt's goose must also apply to the Globe's gander. And what Sisi has stoked, the leaders around the world must have also stoked. But our esteemed author disagrees as you will soon see.

Apparently, Hearst who lives in Britain, is not happy that the Egyptians are “going to amend the law to allow [them] to implement justice as soon as possible.” If this is true, and he is unhappy about prompt justice, he better not come live in North America because we have a saying around here that goes like this: “Justice delayed is justice denied.” This is why we always talk about prompt justice, even when we fail to deliver it on time … something that happens most of the time in our so-called liberal democracy.

David Hearst's problem could be that he is mixing two events which, in reality have nothing to do with each other. The first event is the Egyptian Revolution which started four years ago and lasted about two years. The second event is an ongoing and still escalating Muslim response to the Jewish American launch of a Judeo-Christian war against Islam.

As to the Egyptian Revolution, this was a social experiment that's no different from what happened in many places around the globe at other times. When we say experiment, we mean that the people of Egypt gave themselves the right to choose a government. They gave that government enough time to show its colors, and when the colors turned out to be the wrong ones, the people told it to step aside. When it refused, the people called on their army to remove it from office, and that was done. Now, who on Earth has the right to tell the people of Egypt they should have done things differently? Believe it or not, there are some wackos who believe they have that right.

As to the Muslim response to the Judeo-Christian war that America's Jews have launched against Islam, it all began with the realization that Sharia financing was becoming popular around the world, including America. To plant fear in the hearts of people and to further exploit the situation, the forever opportunistic Jews pointed to that trend and argued that if today is the day that Sharia financing is tolerated; tomorrow will be the day when the full panoply of Sharia Law will be imposed on Western societies, and the veil imposed on Western women.

That was the layer of demagoguery upon which other layers were piled. Before long, the unsavory acts committed by a handful of Muslim kids were described as being the things that Sharia Law will impose on the West – and they include the deep-seated hatred for freedom which lurks in the heart of every Muslim. From there, things escalated to the point that a religious war was triggered and is now being fought. All this is happening while a growing number of souls in America are advocating the start of a full-blown war between the Islamic State and Judeo-Christian America.

And so, when in the mind of David Hearst the story of the Egyptian Revolution got mixed with the story of the Muslim response to the war that was brought to them, David Hearst began to argue that aside from what happens everywhere else in the world, the ISIS activities in Egypt were the direct result of Sisi's style of governance.

With this kind of screwy logic, our author denies the existence of a link between the terrorists’ activities of ISIS around the world and its terrorist activities in Egypt. Why does he do that? Because he wants to blame it all on Sisi, and go from there to end his presentation with this: “If Sisi is left in charge, a surprise awaits the West in Egypt. It will be of a magnitude far greater than the fall of Mosul to the Islamic State.”

This means he wants to undo what the people of Egypt have done for themselves, which is that they put Sisi in charge of their government. This being contrary to the tenets of “liberal democracy” as he understands the concept, his fervent desire is to see the regime in Egypt changed, and replaced with something that looks like Libya or Iraq, maybe even South Sudan – those shiny examples of Western liberal democracy.

Where can you find a delusion more severe and potentially more destructive than this?
