hi pic, will check him out. thanks.

of course this thing in the middle east is all about the usa. propping up mubarak's government for almost 30 years with us taxpayers money.

but in dispite of all that money mubarak didn't want to participate in a mutual sunni front, a nuclear front to be precise, with israel and saudi amongst others, so that was bye bye mubarak. he refused since 2008 on a couple of occasions to this nuclear threat to the region. this was a militairy coup, backed up by the usa. so unfortunately war in iran came much closer since the changes of government in egypt.

listen to this guy, he is geopolitically very well informed, for a long time.
