An anti-Morsi demonstrator - in other words a supporter of the
recent
coup to topple the Egypt's
first democratically-elected leader - seems
to agree with pro-Morsi demonstrators about one thing at least: they
both say they want the
United States out, and they both assert that
Washington is helping the
other side.
In Egypt, America Has 'Blood on its Hands' (The Frontier Post, Pakistan)
"Yet another Muslim nation has been gored, and the spike
will repeatedly pierce its heart until its conscience is dead and it falls again
into complete submission to American interests. That how U.S. policy works in
the Muslim world: submit or be gored. ... Liberals were right to be outraged. But
no matter how outraged, democratic forces should never invite foreign or
military intervention to settle their differences. This is the crime committed by
liberals in Egypt, by which they have plunged the country into a civil war that
could last decades."
In
just one day, the Egyptian army killed about a 150 civilians, all of them supporters of democratically-elected
and now-deposed President Mohammad Morsi. Yet the
bloodshed failed to disperse the crowd.
On
the other hand, the anti-Morsi crowds are no less
numerous, and are supported by the armed forces. Hence detractors of the former
president feel emboldened and act blusterous.
This
is now a civil war, to the chagrin of all the of the world's peace-loving
people, but a source of glee for Israel, U.S. Jewish lobbies, Europe, and India,
which works clandestinely to obtain a portion of the Muslim world's resources. Yet
another Muslim nation has been gored, and the spike will repeatedly pierce its
heart until its conscience is dead and it falls again into complete submission
to American interests. That how U.S. policy works in the Muslim world: submit
or be gored.
If
millions came out to oust Hosni Moubarik, and as many
to vote Morsi into power; and then again to kick him
out because of his stringent religious policies; now as many millions protest across
Egypt to restore the elected president.

Admittedly,
Morsi was a stupid and stubborn man. He had no more
than a two and half percent lead over his rival. It was a very slim majority.
By introducing fundamental changes and tilting toward the right, Morsi exceeded his mandate. Liberals were right to be
outraged. But no matter how outraged, democratic forces should never invite
foreign or military intervention to settle their differences. This is the crime
committed by liberals in Egypt, by which they have plunged the country into a
civil war that could last decades. During that time, Egyptians will be ruled by
a military dictator who will be as much a U.S. puppet as Hosni Mubarak. After their
long struggle, both Egypt's liberals and religious elements have given back the
freedom they had won.
The
man behind the Egyptian coup and the bloodshed that followed is none other than
General Abdul
Fatah Khalil Al-Sisi,
and as the pattern has emerged, he has acted in cahoots with famed American
stooge Mohamed El Baradei. El Baradei was General
Al-Sisi's first choice for prime minister, but
because of strong Salafist opposition, a compromise prime minister was chosen.
Nevertheless, El Baradei hasn't left the scene. He
was given the post of vice president. General Al-Sisi
was also defense minister and military intelligence chief, and those who understand
the close bond between Egypt's military intelligence and the U.S. CIA will not
be surprised to find that El Baradei was as much a
choice of the United States as he was of General Al-Sisi.
For
those who scoff at the notion that much of the recent turmoil in the region
stems from U.S.-instigated conspiracies, El Baradei's
appearance on the lap of General Al-Sisiwill be hard to
explain. ElBaradei is one of America's staunchest
friends in the Muslim world, so much so that he remained director general of
the International Atomic Energy Agency for over a decade. The IAEA is the global agency that snoops for signs of atomic
activity in underdeveloped countries, especially Muslim ones. For example, the
sanctions imposed on Iran by the U.S. and Europe are mostly the result of an El
Baradei report while he was IAEA
director general. As soon as El Baradei's presence in
the new Egyptian government was announced, billions of dollars of aid was
announced by U.S.-influenced oil-rich Arab nations.
As
the overthrow of Morsi's government is recent, this
editorial has provided the background to provide readers of an understanding of
the extent of America's covert and overt involvement in shaping the domestic and
foreign policies of Muslim nations.
Pakistan
did the right thing by demanding that the Egyptian Army return to its barracks
and restore the democratic order. Nevertheless, Pakistan's lonely voice is too
faint to bring changes to the attitudes of either the conspiring superpower or
Egyptian military. Nevertheless, it was a pleasant change to see a democratic
government in Islamabad secure enough to condemn a military coup in any
country.
The
United States should be openly and strongly condemned for creating Egypt's
unrest, which may become source of constant bloodshed. However, unless Muslims
say "no" to American loans and excise the superpower's agents from within
their midst, tragedies like those in Egypt, Afghanistan, Libya and many others,
will continue to happen.
