Hi,

"The USA did not put President Mubarak in power, nor does the US fashion his foreign or domestic policies."

My Answer >>>>> Come on man. Do you want me to believe that the tyrant of Egypt , Mubarak could have reigned over Egypt for 30 years without a little help from US ? Actually you need to read the writings of some of the US commentators to understand that the US needs that brutal dictator Mubarak in power more as he is the best one to handle US interests in Egypt.

And yes the US despite being a so-called "democratic" country (read my words carefully) do not want real free and fair elections in Egypt since they fear that the Muslim Brotherhood might win in those elections.

"We say that because we are one."

My ANswer >>>>> Rhetoric wo'nt do for me , Jeff Israeli. Show me with proof that you are a so-called "democracy". I have plenty of proof like the Ethnic cleansing of native Americans,the slave trade , the colonization of the Philippines and Cuba ,Hiroshima, Mai Lai massacre in Vietnam,Abu Gharib,Haditha massacre in Iraq to prove that you are anything but a democracy.

"The economic sanctions against Iraq during the Clinton administration were due to Saddam's refusal to carry out provisions of the treaty he signed to end a that war he had started. Those sanctions specifically exempted food, medicine and medical treatment, all of which were of little concern to Saddam Hussein, who chose instead to spend oil money on a dozen or so new palaces for himself."

My Answer >>>>> Ohh come on do not bother me with those lies. Please read Robert Fisk's "Conquest of the Middle East" to understand what it meant for the children of Iraq to live under sanctions.

I urge you again to read proper books to know your world not those propaganda handouts handed out by the CIA or Mossad.

"The USA has given more than 50 billion dollars in aid to Egypt in the last 30 years or so, much of it for economic development"

My Answer >>>>>> Ohh really !!!!! And then give me the breakdown of sums year on year. I would also love to know how many bucks Israel got from US during the same period.

"but not from Egyptian Copts, who don't seem to share in the hatred, being on the receiving end themselves of the same Muslim inspired hate"

My Answer>>>>> Ohh do you want me to believe that the Copts enjoy and cheer when US or Israeli warplanes destroy homes , restaurants , schools and wedding parties in places such as Gaza , Iraq , Lebanon and Afghanistan ??? Is that what you are implying ?

SO what is actually anti-Americanism and pro-Americanism in your viewpoint ?
