Dr. Pipes

I'm sure you are aware of this horrible article in our so called newspaper of record the New York Times and it is an article by Ben Hubbard and David Kirkpatrick where they suggest their little ridiculous claim and may I add conspiracy theory that there was a massive conspiracy by the enemies of Morsi to undemine him and his government through inducing shortages in fuel and electricity! And here is this bizarre article

http://mobile.nytimes.com/2013/07/11/world/middleeast/improvements-in-egypt-suggest-a-campaign-that-undermined-morsi.html?pagewanted=1&utm_medium=twitter&_r=0&partner=rss&emc=rss&utm_source=twitterfeed&

How stupid can they get as how can they explain that Morsi who was in power had no clue that there were enemies from within that were trying to undermine him and his government? This is even more evidence that he is incompetent because if this is true then he did not know what was going on and more evidence for him to leave office

But more damaging to the NYT is that in the dark days of Nasser with shortages all over Nasser was in the habit of storing el-mekassarat or nuts and best lahma dani (veil and lamb) which are regarded as a treat during Ramadan and then et voila they are available in stores during Ramadan and this is most likely what happened except that they are now fuel and electricity

The New York Times is our newspaper of record? I will leave it to the readers to judge it
