Tag Archives: Islamist Egypt. Banana Republic Without The Bananas

How radical is Obamalot?

We’re about to find out just how far the vacationer-in-chief will take his Leftist, pro-Muslim politics, now that urban, supposedly-sophisticated Egyptians have voted in the radical Islamists.

As Spengler puts it, Egypt is becoming a banana republic without the bananas. One that, indeed, cannot even feed itself.

And it would be, as he adds here, “an obscenity” for us to continue to supply arms to these religious fanatics. We’ll see whether Obamalot—which stupidly pulled the rug out from under our old ally Mubarak—has the decency to sever our military aid to this budding Somalia on the Nile.

Unlike Spengler, I wouldn’t be opposed to some food aid for the hungry—even knowing that the new Muslim Brotherhood kleptocracy would take most of it—but, please, no more M-1 tanks, M- and F-16s, spare parts, and other arms, shells and ammunition.

For our own, as well as for Israel’s sake, stop it all now.
