Egypt!

Mubarak has fooled the Western world since he is in power. He is a crypto Islamist.

His actions against democarcy in his country have clearly favored the Islamic Brotherhood.

It is a better tool for extremists to have a multitude of poor and ignorant people that can be used at will than promote individual rights.

Congratulation to Mubarak and the great US State Dept pro Egyptian policies.

Like Palestinians, they have not missed the opportunities to be wrong and to remain wrong.

But the military-industrial complex must live long!
