Egypt: US escalating matters under "controlled" circumstances failing...
I think people accept this is a Zionist conspiracy, especially those who are perfectly familiar with The Lavon Affair and how Israel accepted responsibility for it many years later... A friend was stationed both in Egypt and Palestine during the 1950s and knew from his own experience that Israel was more than capable of manipulating local and regional power struggles in areas like these. It hasn't changed...http://search.japantimes.co.jp/cgi-bin/eo20110218a1.html
Britain and the US used the Northern Alliance in Afghanistan in much the same way - but the very existence of these local resistance groups and the part they play shouldn't be underestimated - and I think some do precisely that: they underestimate those who collaborate with the West - and who do so for their own purpose...
To describe people like Habib El-Adly as 'recruits' misses the point entirely. Every government has opposition that builds from within. Egypt is no different than anywhere else in terms of power-struggles. The fact that the DOD and Paul Valleley were sourcing and quoting the oppositional rhetoric of Egyptian intellectuals like Ahmad Naji Kamh in 2005 suggests they were ready to seize an opportunity that was presenting itself; that resistance to the Mubarak regime was building from within and that stability in the region was slowly collapsing...
All these various Western interests had to do was stoke the fire...
When he was ruling the country with an iron fist Mubarak was a US/Israeli/EU ally - but in his eighties and fighting cancer it was only ever a matter of time - and wily old buzzards like Habib El-Adly were likewise circling overhead...
Habib El-Adly and others like him would be only too aware that the attack on the Church in Alexandria might tip the balance in his favor - and yes, I don't doubt he would have found plenty of operational support for such a catalyst event outside of Egypt. It's the sort of event that puts pressure on Western Governments to make loud ultimatums as these kind of human interest events have a big impact on the public consciousness...
What better proof did the West and Israel need that Mubarak was no longer able to contain extremism in his country?
Ahmad Naji Kamh used the attacks on Khan el-Khalili in 2005 to much the same effect, his concern that it was ordinary Egyptian citizens that were responsible - homegrown terrorists - rather than foreign agents. It was the same scaremongering tactic that Cameron and Sarkozy....used recently to reclaim some legitimacy for their collapsing 'big society' projects....
I would guess that US, Israel, the UK and other NATO countries feared the development of a power-vacuum in the aftermath of Mubarak's death and drafted a scheme that would at first escalate matters but under controlled circumstances... It would pose substantial risks but those risks would be considerably less than those of a slow and unpredictable power vacuum... On the face of it America's right and left still seem divided on a) how much we should interfere, b) how quickly Mubarak should go... c) how much influence Mubarak should exert during any such phased transition...
For Israel, I don't see this is going entirely as planned... Which might not be a good thing for the rest of the World....

Not anymore. Let them collect all the terabytes they want and soon, that 18 acre Utah facility will be so filled with useless bits of stolen info that they'll have to build another.
Let those bastards gather all they want and soon, they'll have so many hard drives clogged up with so much BS that finding that needle in a haystack would be easier....
The late Richard “Holbrooke” (hiding behind an olde Englishe name his father was not born to) turns out to have been a relative of the Rothschilds. And his replacement is one Mr Grossman, who will no doubt prove to link to the same networks. The Raymond Davis incident points to the unhinging of American, really Zionist, empire, in this zone as much as in the Arab world..."
