The Associated Press reports that Egyptian judges appointed by Hosni Mubarak dissolved the nation’s parliament Thursday and ruled his former prime minister eligible for the presidential runoff election this weekend – setting the stage for the military and remnants of the old regime to stay in power. With this action, the fundamentalist Islamic Brotherhood took a major blow after having democratically secured a strong majority of seats in the previous election. The move has significantly stunted the nation’s democratic transition, leaving observers across the world on the edge of their seat to see what repercussions take place in the unstable region. Eric Trager of the Washington Institute joined “Real News” Thursday to explain exactly what happened in Cairo, and if there is any way we can expect the Islamic Brotherhood and Egyptian Military to mend fences for any possible acceptance of the results in the presidential runoff election still slated for this weekend.

Posted on June 15, 2012 at 9:43amClinton ,Obama incorporated have just realized what Arab Spring really means and now want to change horses in the middle of the fight. They realize that once this Caliphate gets in power that the Arab world domination will unhinge all of this western world. They played with fire and got burned. Whats next? The Caliphate will take the Middle East and we may be decimated. The next big one will be pretty ugly.

Report Post »A military backed dictatorship, that is what’s next. And considering the alternatives it may not be that bad a thing. You have to keep in mind ‘democracy’ in the eyes of the average Egyptian means they can murder those in the minority.

Posted on June 15, 2012 at 5:15amThe Military is staging a pseudoCoupe… using the Court as a Front… as the Islamists were threatening to go after the Generals next… and, now, the Islamists are threatening to Revolt and support a Civil War.
Thank you HILLARY CLINTON & FaceBook!

Posted on June 15, 2012 at 5:26amREMEMBER What started the Egyptian problem.
The US… Liberals/Government/Gore-ites… pressured Egypt into joining the Koyoto Accords. Where in Egypt… the Non Upper Class people… use Butane Fuel (Tanks) for Heating and Cooking… and where the increase in Price/Tax broke their PiggyBanks!
ManBearPig caused the problem!
