So the Muslim Brotherhood won Egypt’s democratic election. What a surprise? No! As I stated a while back you would have had to have just arrived on earth from a far away galaxy even beyond the imagination of James Cameron not to see what Jimmy Carter and Barack Obama also fail to see. Egypt’s election was monumental blunder on our part. Even the Russians are not about to allow a loss of control in Syria despite a regime far worse and more dangerous than Egypt ever was. Only America, under this liberal President, would have permitted such an outcome. I once stated that a race to replace Mubarak will be far better utilized by the Brotherhood, that has over eighty years of experience invested in gaining power, than the incoherent mob of disorganized dissidents that Egypt was left with.

You may ask why I use the word ‘permitted’. It is simple. The idea that somehow we should abandon American interests and submit our future security and safety, and that of allies, to the vicarious and capricious whims of democracy, as a substitute for, at worse a despot (ours) and at best an ineffectual ruler, indicates just how little many politicians and media pundits understand regarding the fundamental concept of American self-preservation. This should be our number one priority.

No one suppressed Egypt and the Brotherhood more than Nasser yet the populace cried for weeks after his death. Sadat, who was much more tolerant of extreme groups gave the Brotherhood the very freedom that eventually supported his assassination. Mubarak understood this. So did the Shah of Iran whose democratic removal has given us the factory made IED that has become so devastating to our military.

On which side was Obama when Zelaya attempted to declare himself as Honduras’ President for life in defiance of the Constitution and the Honduran Supreme Court ruling? Where was he during the Iranian demonstrations? Where is he in regards to human rights in China, Venezuela, Cuba, North Korea and a host of Muslim countries under the hard rule of Sharia Law?

Almost 70% of Americans do not want Obamacare. Where is Obama on this? That plurality is on the right side of freedom. Too many Muslims decry for Sharia law. Democracy that does not support unalienable rights is as tyrannous as any despot. It is on the wrong side of freedom. Egypt is too large and too strong a country, and Israel is too small a neighbor with too small a populace, to simply have allowed Egypt to fall into the hands of what could very well provide safe harbor for our enemies. Even where people seem to get it you can never count upon the good intentions of those who vote without taking your eye off of the bad intentions of those they vote for. Look how many manage to bypass the clear Constitutional constraints affording citizens protection from our own government. How do those, who live within the epicenter of despots and Sharia law, suddenly bootstrap themselves into economic prosperity and remain friends of America and Israel without American involvement? Un fortunately, this Administration has about the same interest in mid-east prosperity and freedom as it does for the prosperity and freedom for the American people that mistakenly and foolishly democratically voted for them.

Democracy and free choice may represent freedom to some but can just as easily represent tyranny to others and that is why individual liberty can never exist save for the laws of Nature and of Nature’s God and natural God given unalienable rights bestowed upon all of us at birth. The issue is whether Egypt’s populace and the Brotherhood understand this concept or find it so unpalatable that they find America, Israel and the West equally unpalatable. It will be the latter which ultimately means that we have acquired additional enemies that never existed before the presidency of Barack Obama.
