What recently caught my ear and made me think was Obama's generosity with Egypt and the other Arab countries "going through transition", i.e. change in government. Evidently not only do we give Egypt 1 Billion Dollars annually but they also owe us 1 Billion Dollars. Our magnanimous and generous President has the "courage" to tell Egypt, never mind, you don't need to pay your debt to us and ah yes, we will continue to send you our dollars. Now he also wants to purchase friendship on the Arab streets in Egypt, and other Arab countries. I think he'd welcome the change no chance to join the Arab Brotherhood. But my question is if the Arab nations need support, where are the Oil Rich Arab Countries? Doesn't Saudi Arabia have substantial surplus? Don't they have an obligation to support brother Arabs. Or are we the patsy? WE should go broke sending more money to the Arabs so we can rack up our public debt so as not to burden our "friends" in Arabia.
It's time to realize they are not friends or allies. They may not hate us but they certainly do not willingly support us. Stop bankrupting our future generations by sending any money to Arabia. Maybe we should expect to be paid by the Oil Producing Arab Countries for being their mercenaries and protecting these rich dictatorships.
I am not a foreign policy expert but something just does not balance.
Government as usual must stop.
Our Politicians have been given a free ride by the press and the electorate.
What is troubling is that there isn't much more that rumbling in the street.
