the situation in egypt

lol when you try and wiki knowledge something at least omit key words like 'counterweight' so you don't look like a muppet

so when you wiki'd hamas and saw this line

"In fact, Israel for many years tolerated and at times encouraged Islamic activists and groups as a counterweight to the secular nationalists of the PLO and its dominant faction, Fatah"

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Hamas

You failed to interpret it correctly as you do not know the history of Israel and the PLO. Israel didn't help create Hamas. Israel tolerated Hamas, and other factions coming to power as it diluted the unchallenged power at the time of the PLO. Ultimately created more enemies but ultimately rid them of the PLO who are all but obsolete in the world today.

Had this not happened and the PLO grown as the undisputed voice of muslim extremists for the past number of decades you'd see 1 insanely powerful group instead of multiple moderately powerful groups.


Please don't try and drop wikipedia knowledge unless you know the context and revolving history around what you're quoting.

Thought that was for another arguement? You seem to have bought on an aguement all by yourself, son.

the thing wrong with new fps is there is no mind use in them. old fps had puzzles and mazes to navigate. new fps have straight line path and close to neon blinking signs for goals
that and the single player comes second to multiplayer maps which sucks
this vid sums up new fps up imo

yes maybe the muslim brotherhood will bring radicalisation and destabilize the region and bla bla but guess what this situation is the direct result of the US and their allies in Egypt keeping them from power at the expense of the population for 30 years and now it's reached the boiling point. Tough luck, USA. Tough luck, Israel. Tough luck, privileged egyptian elite. Not everything can go your way all the time, just ask the egyptian people, they've been fucked in the ass for decades.

have any of you guys been to Egypt / lived there ?

Lived and worked there for about 8 years, and before that Israel for about a year.

And pkay, I didnt go to wikipidea, I was going on what Israeli friends told me years ago in India, and what some Israeli official ladmitted on a BBC World interview I saw once.

I googled 'Israel created Hamas' and found http://globalresearch.ca/articles/ZER403A.html 'Counterweight' was my choice.

If I'm a muppet you're a big nose. Ya ibni

Did you actually read the article? he's not actually saying israel created hamas. They're saying tolerance and support for the reasons of hurting the PLO aided them in their rise to prominence.

demonstrations still going strong, Mubarak has gone to sharm al sheihk, apparantly he might be out tommorow?
otherwise, huge demonstrations are planned.

mubarak's speech live on tv now. bbc.co.uk/news

shit's gonna get hairy now!

I expect protests to get a little more violent and the military will have to remove Mubarak or face off with protesters.

Crazy times!
