AS EGYPT GOES...

...so goes the region. I'm not convinced that the uprising will end in a democracy. It's opportunity time for all the bad guys, too. Keep an eye on the Muslim Brotherhood (More background: Read A Mosque in Munich) and what they try to stir up among the masses. Some of this process reminds me of Carter mishandling the Shah of Iran, leading to the hostage incident and losing the country to the Islamic "republic". What President Obama does.. most importantly what and how he says things related to this.. could make all the difference. Our allies around the world are keenly interested to see how America reacts. If Egypt falls into more radical hands, who's next? Saudi Arabia... Pakistan... et al.
