Video: Mitchell Bard On Unrest in Egypt: What Does It Mean for the US and Israel?

The Egyptian regime of Hosni Mubarak has oppressed the people for more than 30 years, but the current turmoil raises questions about what sort of government will replace his. While supporting the protesters' demands for freedom and democracy, it is important to consider the possibility that the outcome of any change in regime may not be democratic or free, and what the consequences would be if a non-democratic and, especially, radical Islamic government takes Mubarak's place.

Cool!

Now, besides the Israel-Palestine conflict upsetting Middle East stability and destroying any chance for Peace In Our Time--we also find that upsetting Middle East stability will destroy any peace between Israel and the Palestinians.

And that of course will upset Middle East stability.

And that will destroy any chance for peace between Israel and the Palestinians...

An endless cycle of violence!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!
