In his latest interview with Judge Napolitano, Colonel MacGregor continues to get Egypt wrong. It's unbelievable to me the degree to which he is uninformed about Egypt. For instance, he stated, again, what he has maintained all along, namely, that the US did not want the Muslim Brotherhood in power, when it patently foisted the MBs on Egypt and forced the Egyptian Judicial Council to declare Morsi the winner of the presidential election of 2012 ahead of schedule: Despite H. Clinton's machinations meant to ensure that the MB candidate would have no viable opposition in that election, thus paving for him a clear path to victory, Morsi won with only a razor-thin margin, that's if he actually won, which is debatable. Indeed, many Egyptians believe that Morsi lost. However, due to the US intimidation of the army generals and support for the Muslim Brotherhood, the transitional Military Council (put in place post-Mubarak) had no choice but to do the US's bidding, declaring Morsi president. The ousting of Morsi in 2013 angered the Americans and the EU, a period I remember very distinctly: daily emissaries from the CW would arrive in Cairo to threaten the Egyptian government and state, demanding the release from jail of prominent Muslim Brotherhood leaders, etc.

During the rest of Obama's time in power, the White House and the State Department were at war with Egypt, and American think tanks like the Brookings Institute and its hack Shadi Hamed, along with every Western NGO under the sun, spent $$$, time and effort to demonize and destabilize the Egyptian state and Sisi. Western politicians, even ones no longer in office, homesteaded on Twitter campaigning against Egypt, prominent among whom were Carl Bildt and BHL.

Weeks before Biden assumed power, he made an outrageous public statement saying that one of his first actions once in office would be to oust Sisi. Remember that the Obama administration and the H. Clinton staff were swarming with self-avowed Muslim Brothers and/or their affiliates, like Huma Abdin and Co. The same happened in Canada once Trudeau became PM. [In passing, I'll just add that the Minister of Transportation in Canada during Covid, who slammed on millions of us, unvaxxed, a travel ban, was a Syrian-born, Saudi-bred weasel from the Brotherhood.]

Trump was less favourable towards the Muslim Brotherhood. However, the antipathy towards the Egyptian army remained. And what did Biden in the dying days of his administration do in terms of actions against Egypt? As of yesterday, the US has levied sanctions on the Egyptian army, claiming that Egypt has revoked the Camp David Accord, a claim being repeated ad nauseam in the Israeli press, probably paving the way for a war aimed to take over Sinai and the Suez Canal, a dream the colonial powers never relinquished.

Here is a CNN article from 2012 that takes us back to the real US schemes in the aftermath of the "Arab Spring/Nightmare" of that period. The CW wanted Egypt to end up in the tight grip of the Islamists whom they have aided and abetted everywhere else in the region, as the latters have always been traitors to their respective nations and willing accomplices to the Neocolonial powers. A few months prior to his ousting, Morsi drove around the Cairo Stadium in Nasser's historic car and made a speech in which he declared that he would send Egyptian youth to fight alongside ISIS in Syria to topple Assad. That was what the US had asked him to do. In the opinion of many, that speech and that intention ultimately proved his undoing.

Russia & NATO on Brink of WW3: Putin Attacks POLAND? | Alexander Mercouris & Alex Christoforou

Max Blumenthal was on Alex Jones and said that Trump was afraid of Satanyahu. (I have been saying this for months)

But I also think now that this is Trump trying to get from underneath the thumb of the great Satan. Charlie Kirk’s death has shined the light on how dangerous 🇮🇱 is the way that the deaths of thousands of innocent people never could.

Now if anything happens to Trump or his family people will be looking at 🇮🇱

110 000 demonstrators...

I´ve been to concerts, visited large concerts to the likes of Rock Am Ring where easily 80.000 people have turned up for groups like KISS, 30 Seconds to Mars, Coldplay and so many more.
I´ve followed over 40000 people during the CoVid19 demos in Switzerland and actually think I can estimate what more than 100000+ people look like and THIS photo tells a story of at least 1/2 mio. people moving through the streets of London, if not even more.
It´s bizarre and actually even insulting to have MSM try and convince anyone that their estimate would be correct!
The civil disobedience and rise against the powers that be has started.
Congratulations to Tommy Robinson !!

You can't change the world,
But you can change the facts,
And when you change the facts,
You change points of view.
If you change points of view,
You may change a vote,
And when you change a vote,
You may change the world.

A quick commentary on the "Piss Summit"
I might not be able to upload much more or do lives for a while

My Fellow Duranianss.

Yes, it's happened again. I have been assaulted by a vicious Malware Bot Virus or whatever 911 Socks is and this thing is bad ! 

However I wanted to give you a "peace" of my mind concerning the "Piece" or piss, as Elensky calls it, as this thing fell to pieces before it even happened.

Coincidentally on the very SAME DAY  this crap happened Saudi Arabia DROPPED the US Petrodollar as a buying currency and NO ONE absolutely NO ONE is talking about this fact anywhere !!!

 

Hope to see you all asap.
