What interested me most about this one was this...

"Since the military ouster of the Islamist president in Egypt one year ago, the new Egyptian government, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates have formed a block exerting influence in countries around the region to roll back what they see as a competing threat from Islamists. Arrayed against them are the Islamist movements, including the Muslim Brotherhood, backed by friendly governments in Turkey and Qatar, that sprang forward amid the Arab Spring revolts."

The battle lines are being drawn.

The UAE and Egypt act to stop the Islamist nutbars and the Obama Administration is 'enraged'.

Seriously, does anyone really care to argue that Obama isn't tacitly supporting the moslem crazy train? He armed ISIS and now he's protecting the Muslim Brotherhood and their friends.

It's a Cluster Fuck!

they neither should need nor seek 'permission' from the US. It's their part of the globe, they can manage it without the intervention of a western state half way around the planet.

It's a secret? How does that work?

On the radio just now they're saying that an ISIS-like islamist group called Al-Fajr ('the sunrise' or 'the dawn') has seized Libya's capital city of Tripoli today. Which explains why Egypt and the UAE were trying to stop them.
