McCain: Nix aid to Egyptian military coup's overthrow of


Posted: Jul 7, 2013

Using GOP logic as applied to Obama's similar statements last week defending Egyptian democratic process, not specific party "sides," this must mean McCain "supports" the Muslim Brotherhood.

Syrian rebels that included al Qaeda members.

I think McCain should just retire. He either seems to be getting a bit senile, or he is simply against the citizens of the United States. (We can easily see that most republicans ARE against the middle class and poor and only care about the rich, as evidenced by their words and their policies.)

Agreed. In the same breath he talked about - learning from past mistakes

he started nattering on about the failure of American leadership and how the Egyptian military should have backed off and kept their distance from the people's revolt simply because the US "told them not to do that." LOL. As if.

Most historians now view the Arab Spring as the seminal event that ushered in the "post-American" era in the Middle East, since those populations have made their intent to take control of their own national destinations abundantly clear. Much has been written in the interim about the ramifications of that tectonic shift in terms of reshaping US foreign policies by revisiting old alliances and building coalitions that "lead from behind" in innovative 21st century fashion.

Guess McCain didn't get the memo.

I guess he'd still like to "Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb Iran." - nm

Ultimately, the ideas they advance, unlike the causes of war, become noncontroversial. The next such revolution, likely to occur in the 21st century, will challe ...
