Egypt: The Nightmare Scenario

…In Middle East expert Barry Rubin’s blog today, he said there are far too many Middle East experts pitching the view that if and when the Brotherhood takes over in Egypt, it won’t be so bad.

In the Weekly Standard today, their terrorism expert Thomas Joscelyn took one of these experts to task, Bruce Reidel, former CIA operative and currently an advisor to the Muslim in the White House who no doubt is also unperturbed by the prospect of the Brotherhood coming to power in Cairo. Why would Barack Obama be when he has had nothing but good things to say about Islam, this totalitarian, antisemitic, anti-Western, anti-freedom culture fit for slaves and slaves of slaves? In his Friday statement on the situation in Egypt, Emir Barack Hussein, as he did in his Cairo speech in the spring of 2009, raped history when he glorified “the Egyptian people who want a future that befits the heirs to a great and ancient civilization.”

Was he referring to the Pharaonic civilization or the culture of Islam, which I intentionally call a culture and not a civilization because word derives from “civitas”/citizenship in a city-state, but in Araby there are no cities to compare to cities in the West or Japan, and now China’s burgeoning cities?

If Prince Barack Hussein had in mind the age of the Pharaohs, well, today’s Egyptians are not their heirs. They don’t speak their language; they don’t read and live by their texts like the Egyptian Book of the Dead. They don’t worship their gods, celebrate their festivals. In fact, the heirs of that civilization do exist, in a way, barely, among the persecuted 10% of Egypt that is Coptic Christian. The very word Coptic is related to the word Egypt. The name of the country comes from the language of the Pharaohs which the Copts have preserved in some form.

On the contrary, today’s Egyptians may be biologically descended from the ancient Egypt but otherwise they are Arabic-speaking Muslims because in the year 640 of the Common Era the Muslims overran the country and implanted not their civilization but their culture. Indeed, when tourists visit Egypt, what they are coming to see are the remnants of Pharaonic Egypt not anything the Muslims built there.

So Prince Barack Hussein was at it again, acting like Louis Farrakhan and his ilk of lunatics with their ridiculous distortions of history…
