The scorer do not like dictatorships, of whatever kind is still a matter of course, that's standard in our culture and world region, one would think. But is not it:
30 years was Hosni Mubarak "our" friend. Whenever it came to peace in the Middle East, he was there because the U.S. and Europe, called him to help. Mubarak has given him the peace treaty with Israel, had for his predecessor Anwar Sadat in 1981 to die by Arab extremists, who would be called in Newspeak "Islamists".
Mubarak has not received for this peace as Sadat and his Israeli counterpart Begin in Nobel Prize. Got the momentum in the second Rabin, Arafat and Perez, though, even after decades of bitter enmity, but wanted peace, but it never arrived. Stable alone was Israel's peace with Egypt, the Mubarak was the guarantor.
course not in vain. More than a billion dollars "military aid" there was every year because of the United States. Officially, of course, to protect the peace partner Israel from enemies in the Arab camp. Indeed, but also to upgrade Mubarak against their own people.
No, there were civil liberty not in the historic land of the Nile - any more than in any other country in the region. Reza Pahlavi, Shahinshah (King of Kings) of Iran was a terrible tyrant, his people hunted the beginning of 1979 to the devil - after he had been supported for decades by the U.S. and Europe heavily. Benno Ohnesorg died in Berlin at a student demonstration against a state visit of the Shah by a police bullet.
What followed in Iran after the Islamic revolution "was a new tyranny of the Ayatollah Khomeini of Klerikalfaschismus, who survived his death until today, and tens of thousands fleeing the Iranians in the whole world - as once the king of kings.
Khomeini was not a friend of the United States. Against him, they sent another friend in a bloody war: Saddam Hussein, President of Iraq, just as much a potentate like all others, but who introduced at least in the Arab world up to that unusual schooling for girls, had his people for what U.S. governments for the universal values of the West, seek to bleed on the battlefield of a war against the Islamic Republic of Iran.
the lackey of the U.S. and international oil industry used it, how they had used Mubarak and left him hanging when he was to them independently. Although Egypt is in contrast to Iran and Iraq an oil producer, but saw Mubarak on behalf of the United States and to protect the corporate interests of stability in the region.
Today they cheer everyone up by Obama Merkel. Because the man has fallen, who had three weeks to their category of "best friend". They expect to be rich again their billions. That the Egyptian people forget that violence and oppression of capitalism are completely indifferent as long as the cash register ringing loud enough.
We Remember: Even the dictator Ferdinand Marcos in the Philippines, Duvalier (Papa Doc and Baby Doc) in Haiti or the military dictator Manuel Noriega in Panama were "best friends" as long as the U.S. capital were useful. The whole thing over with Islam or Christianity, with religion, nothing to do with profits and everything.
This time they may have miscalculated. King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia, clearly, a potentate, has already warned Obama. Mubarak was for him not only a partner but a friend. The nations of Iraq and Afghanistan are waiting anxiously for the day, disappear when their new Western colonialists back.
And maybe then starts a whole new form of "Holy War" - to the oil taps in the Arab world. Perhaps together with the multinational of their freedom to Groups struggling countries in South America and supported by China and Russia.
And then the U.S. has no friends at once. Not even in Europe ...
