What now? How do we help the NEW Egypt?
   
Edited on Fri Feb-11-11 02:11 PM by SoCalDem
First & foremost, tourism has to be revived ASAP.

If the rank & file people can get back to "normal" right away, they will keep their hopeful attitudes.

Whatever agencies are in charge of aid, need to get on the stick and help to address any shortages that are prevalent..especially food & infrastructure issues.

You make friends by helping..not by sitting back until the new government is in place fully.

We sat back and waited when the Soviet Union crumbled and they ended up with many problems they might not have had if we had been of more help in the beginning.

We need our help to be recognized as humanitarian aid..not military only.

If their economy blossoms and the people on the streets start to feel more prosperous, the dodgy zealots will not have much luck with them.

The people have told us all for weeks now, that they are looking West... We cannot look away now.

First off, you, your drop the soap son, and Bobo should move there. Sell the buick for scrap and that should pay for your third class ticket on a ship. When you get there buy a burka and STFU.

Um, SoCalDem, perhaps we should start working on rebuilding OUR economy before we get to Egypt, m'kay?

Actually that is some of the best advice anyone could give the dump dolls.  I mean, it sure would help CalMissPigg's look immensely covering that unsightly Adams apple. :rotf:

First thing I thought. Besides, if all these M.E. countries want us out of their business, then let's get all the way out except for whatever commercial trade they want to do with us.

Never been to Egypt but was in Jordan, so I speak without actual experience but some. If I were in charge I would be sending lots of food and medical supplies with clear US AID and our flags on the smallest packaging unit and make sure it was distributed to the Egyptian people and not to the Army of muslim brotherhood.

Could be good to give out information on what a democracy is and what it is not (ie mullah theocracy and sharia law).

I know that Obumbler will not do this but am torn in the reason why. Is it to make sure Egypt goes as far anti-west and toward islam or he is just the least experienced man in any room. 60/40 it is the latter.

You do know that any US aid will go through the corrupt officials at the UN, most likely and will have their emblems on them.

Oh I do. It is certain.  I did not stress enough that this must be seen by the Egyptians as USA aid. If that cannot happen then we send nothing. No use paying to promote the MB or any other hate America crowd.  It's one thing to not get credit and quite another to pay and then have credit go to our enemies.

Once the muslim takeover is complete, tourism may not be much of an option. Like the Taliban, they may work on tearing down the pyramids, blow up the Sphinx, and surely they will demolish the museums full of that blasphemous pharoah crap. The only hope for tourism may be if the Israelis carpet bomb the place and then take over. Then tourists from civilized countries would again be able to visit without risk of decapitation.

IIRC, there were some stories of aid to Haiti being relabeled from US to UN.

I remember to the giant statues of Buddha that are no longer there.  The Muslims really take the first 3 of Ten Commandments to heart.

SoCalDem, you and the rest of the posters to the DU should go to Egypt immediately. Get right in the thick of things, like. I'm sure they'll (the Egyptians) appreciate your efforts. And make sure you try as hard as you can to make immediate contact with members of the Muslim Brotherhood--they're all goodhearted gentlemen who will be truly grateful for your assistance, and will, I'm sure, show you around.

And, to show you that we have no hard feelings here at CC, we'll even take up a collection to help buy you all plane tickets--won't we, people?

Every single one of these asshats we can "export" is a win, win, for us and the American People!

I saw a reporter standing amid the joyful crowd today. Man next to her has his baby daughter with him, and nitwit reporter was extolling the girl's bright future now that 'the people' are in charge.   Um, like genital mutilation, forced marriage  and the ever popular honor killing?

And prohibitions against driving a car, owning property, education, freedom to travel, speaking to non-relative males, or normal clothing. Violation of any prohibition will justify honor killing. The Religion of Peace is a bloodthirsty cult, and the "joyful people of Egypt" are looking it straight in the face. And the gayboys on CNN and Fox, celebrating the rioters' success every evening this week, surely know that if they took their perversion into RoP territory, they would be stoned.

Just paint her UN blue and stick a UN flag in her ass . She'll be happy and the riots would stop since they all would run in sheer terror.

Oh yes, and let's nto forget smudging...after all, since the Arab world uses incense instead of bathing or deodorants, so it would show a cultural affinity.
