Oh yes, I think we would all have done what they did in Iraq if it was our country. Well, I would no qualms about it. I am just glad if everything turns
to crap in this country I have some training to fall back on that would allow
me to be effective.

Re Egypt and "At least the Egyptian Military are fighting the Muslim Brotherhood and its excesses....."

Imagine if the US did NOT have so much tied up in Egypt in terms of
military sales etc etc etc. Their was an interesting article about this in
one of the papers when Obama said the US would stop supply of XYZ
military equipment etc. Well it kind of pointed out that it wasn't as easy
as all that because the pipeline and lead time was so long.

I wonder if the US was not so involved they (Obama) might have tried
harder to get the MB back in !!!
