A bedtime Story for little Draculas

What if you were hired by Count Dracula to babysit his children? Suppose the little ones gave you a hard time, refusing to go to sleep on the bed or in the coffin, till you tell them a story that will enchant them. What kind of story would you put together that will satisfy blood-sucking human vampires?

If you cannot come up with a story that will fulfill those criteria, you'll be glad to know there is one that's offered free of charge to those who want it. It came under the title: “The Flow of Islamist Fighters From Egypt to Syria, and the Sisi Government's Crackdown,” written by Eric Trager and published on September 17, 2016 in the “think tank” section of the Wall Street Journal.

Even though the story is full of subtleties, the Dracula kids will catch your drift and recognize that its subliminal message is to incite the mentally retarded in the American Congress of zombies; also incite those who labor in the associated institutions to do one thing. It will be to engineer a regime change in Egypt, thus turn the country into another Iraq, Darfur, Yemen, occupied Palestine, South Sudan, Libya or Syria. These are places where blood flows as abundantly as it does in the stories of the Jewish Old Testament – places where a Dracula can eat his soup and dive in it too.

It must be said that Eric Trager himself might be the innocent party in this saga, being the messenger that's only reporting on a situation which the editors of the Wall Street Journal saw fit to publish. He brought nothing of his own to the story except three caveats by which he distances himself from the storyline; also a final editorial by which he offers what sounds like wise words of caution.

Here are the three caveats:  (1) “The Brotherhood's relative quiet 'might' reflect some decision to turn their attention elsewhere.” (2) “The report relies heavily on anonymous sources.” (3) “The report cannot be independently verified.” And here is the writer's final editorial by which he ends the presentation: “It is why the Sisi government tends to regard Washington's call for political reform as undermining its domestic security.” Put together, these points mean that the reader must not take anything Trager says here at face value. But if you want to come out with something, it is that the locals should be left alone to govern themselves as they see fit.

As to the real culprit behind that undertaking, it is an Arab news site according to Trager. I do not visit this site, and I do not intend to because it sounds like a modern version of the pirate radio stations that sprung up in the 1950s to attack then President Gamal Abdel Nasser of Egypt, but made asses of themselves instead.

Another difference between then and now is that the perpetrators of the earlier era aimed to see the people of Egypt revolt against the Nasser regime and force it to change course. By contrast, the evildoers of today seek to spark a civil war that will break up the country of Egypt the way they managed to do it with some nations in the region, and the way they intend to do with the rest of the nations.

From what Eric Trager is saying, it looks like the modern evildoers are implementing a two-pronged strategy. One, there is this reminder: “Egyptian security forces captured Brotherhood-aligned youths responsible for attacks on infrastructure.” That is, the evildoers recruited youngsters in Egypt, and instructed them to commit serious acts of vandalism in the country.

Two, there is this observation: “The report cites three factors related to the crackdown on Islamists. First, the brutality of the post-Morsi period convinced many that violence was their only option. Second, the disruption of the chain of command undermined the old guard leaders. Third, many spent time in prison where jihadists indoctrinated them.” That is, the evildoers are asking the Washington retards to interfere with Cairo's policies.

This is how the evildoers create the local conditions that attract the attention of Washington. When this happens, they call on Washington to interfere. This aggravates the local situation further, which convinces Washington to escalate its interference. Things go from bad to worse, and the sea of blood gets deeper and deeper. This is the spiral that Eric Trager is wisely cautioning against.

We now get back to the Dracula kids that refuse to go to sleep. You can see that this story will enchant them and help them do just that. But if you choose not to tell them about the Trager cautionary note at the end of the story, don't forget to tell it to the Washington retards.
