ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates -- Saudi Arabia slammed protesters in Egypt as "infiltrators" who seek to destabilize their country, and a top Palestinian official affirmed "solidarity" with Egypt on Saturday, while an Iranian official called on Egypt to "abide by the rightful demands of the nation" and avoid violent reactions.

I laughed my behind off when I heard his response, especially since he's been in the US the past two months then went to Morocco. What does he know about the current climate?
I still don't think the offing of the Saudi's is gonna happen, the people are too well taken care of to want to risk their lifetime paychecks for sitting on their behinds.

The TV news is reporting that 'The Muslim Brotherhood' is big behind the protests.

They ain't a pretty bunch. So there is some infiltration and manipulation.
The freedom marches are great ... but the Muslim Brotherhood is waiting in the wings to step up.
I just hope the people of Egypt aren't going from the frying pan into the fire with the Brotherhood.

"Yeah there is some "infiltration and manipulation" but they don't say *who* is manipulating *who* ...."
This has Irans finger prints all over it as they have already taken Lebanon, Tunisa and about to have Egypt and Jordan. This will all be part of the Mahdis army.

However, they do have a bit of it right.

The Muslim world is sick of the American fascist puppet regimes being forcefully shoved down their throats.

One question: Do you think it is time for US troops to withdrawal from Saudi Arabia and let the people of Saudi Arabia deal with their fascist oppressive king, I mean "to deal with the US puppet".

I see someone is not up to date on history. How about you explain to us how President Mubarik came to power in the first place? I will help you out. President Anwar Sadat was assasinated by Islamic extremists. Why you may ask? Because he recognized Israel and the fact that constant warfare between nations accomplishes nothing.
I will refer you to the Camp David Accords. Aside from being assasinated, what else did his actions cause? The Arab League suspended Egypt because they wanted peace.
Iran is a joke and the pressure is building, again, against the current regime. For Iran to make a statement to Egypt declaring the rights of the people should be heard is a laugh riot. The term practice what you preach comes to mind.
Thats not fear. It would be the smell of dead bodies from centuries of blatant muder in the name of a religion thats been hijacked and its followers brainwashed.
Are you really that afraid of a Democratic form of Government in the Middle East? Are you truely that afraid of accepting more than one idea? more than one religion? To me, a government / religion that goes out of its way to limit the manner in which people worship, who and how, in addition to accepting women as an important part of society outside of baby makers. Fear is when not growing a long beard becomes a crime against the State punishable by death.
True fear is when a Government / religion will take action, at any cost, to silence opposing viewpoints.
The only fear present are by the islamic extremists who are losing their "jihad" because moderate muslims recognize that a death sentence 1400 years ago might not make much sense in the 21st century. I can refer you back to the leaked diplomatic cables about how other countries in the Middle east feel towards Iran.
Lebanon - Prime Minister harrari assasinated by Hezbullah/Syria/Iran
Egypt - President Anwar Sadat - Assasinated by Islamic Extremists because he made peace with Israel
I can list a few pages more that detail striclty ISLAMIC extremists who have assasinated leaders in the Middle East for their own goals, who had nothing to do with the United States. While we all appreciate the fact the Arab world wants to constantly blame the US for its problems, it needs to be recognized that our country has only been around for 300 years. This mess was not created by the United States alone, and any attempt to argue that point is naieve at best.
Please learn history before attempting to lay blame on others. That tactic smells like the Propoganda drivel that is put out so extremists leaders in the Middle East can blame the US for the shortcomings in their own countries.
Take Iran for an example - Maybe if they took the time to build a damn medical center and less time blaming the great satan for all of their internal problems, things would be different.
You say you smell fear from us, I say that smell is envy of what we have and what arab extremists are trying to prevent from taking hold in arab lands.
Being the US was invited into the country by the ruling monarch, that would be a question for the Saudis to make.
Another history lesson for you.. Why does OPEC manipulate the price of oil through production? Its done to control the price of oil, because they know industrialized nations depend on oil for their economies to move. With the abundance of oil, and the price low (even at 100-150 dollars a barrel) its an incentive for industrialized nations to NOT pursue alternative fuel sources.
Why? Because the Governments in the Middle East would have nothing if alternative energy sources were perfected. It would result in oil being less in demand, the rpices would drop, the western presence would leave the middle east, and they would have no one else to blame for their regligious or economic problems but themselves.
Learning history is imperative.. Didnt your leaders teach you that or are you just repeating the party line because independent thought is forbidden in that neck of the woods?

I simply stated Egypt is a US puppet, how Mubarak came to power doesn't disprove him not being a fascist puppet of the US. I compared Iran to Egypt because the West fears another Iran. They can't contain one Iran, if they have a similar revolution in Egypt then the Western puppets will fall one by one.

From these uprising it is evident that they are sick of US fascist regimes. Iran was the first successful revolution, now the rest of the Muslim world are following. Maybe you should send a letter to your president to keep your fellow Americans within your own borders, and also to stop giving intel to fascist puppet dictators to crack down on protesters. Also please help the Egyptian protesters communicate, just like you did for the Iranian protesters.
Thanks in advance.

Yeah, the Monarch does as the US tells it to do. Ofcourse the troops were invited, the US troops in Iraq are also invited, and in Afghanistan, not to mention countless other countries who invited the US to invade them.

It is easy to make that statement when you consider the leaders of those sovereign nations as anything but puppets.

Some of us have evolved and have caught up to US colonialism trickery. They colonize nations through puppet regimes these days, we still have empires, but deception is the reason behind their invisible boundaries.
