Netanyahu & Co. Must Be Proud Of Mubarak And His Thugs
By Alan Hart

http://www.countercurrents.org/hart030211.htm

For many years I believed that Israel's leaders have no equals in the business of saying one thing and doing another. But Mubarak has proved me wrong.

Hours later his thugs were leading a violent attack on the peaceful, pro-democracy protesters in Cairo's Tahir square

Why Washington Clings To A Failed  Middle East Strategy
By Gareth Porter

http://www.countercurrents.org/porter030211.htm

The death throes of the Mubarak regime in Egypt signal a new level of crisis for a U.S. Middle East strategy that has shown itself over and over again in recent years to be based on nothing more than the illusion of power. The incipient loss of the U.S. client regime in Egypt is an obvious moment for a fundamental adjustment in that strategy


Egyptians Ready, Americans Unready
By Joel S. Hirschhorn

http://www.countercurrents.org/joel030211.htm

Welcome to our planet, circa 2011--a planet that, like some unruly adolescent, has decided to test the boundaries.
