Middle East Riots and the Choke Point
Why are these orchestrated riots, instigated by the Muslim Brotherhood, breaking out simultaneously in both Egypt and Yemen? A quick look at the map reinforces Napoleon's maxim, "Geography is destiny." The Suez Canal begins in Egypt and ends where the Red Sea meets the Gulf of Aden, in a narrow passage between Africa and Yemen. With radical Islamic forces controlling both ends of this vital waterway, the flow of Saudi oil and of Chinese and Japanese manufactured goods to Europe becomes problematic and expensive. The EU would be quickly blackmailed to sever all political and financial ties to the State of Israel. This would be followed by their silent acquiescence to the total genocide of Israel and it's 5.7 million Jewish citizens; first through a series of brutal proxy wars with Hamas and Hezb'allah, followed by a two pronged attack by conventional forces from Egypt and Syria, led by airborne divisions of fanatical Iranian Revolutionary Guards. These IRG shock troops have been specifically trained to parachute into Israeli cities and sow chaos and death in thousands of mini battlefields inside the urban population centers.
Where does Obama stand in all this? He will just stare at his toes, and say, "Aw shucks, golly gee, American shouldn't do anything to stop these democratically inspired riots." Wink, wink nod, nod. In fact these "faux democracy" riots are just a convenient cover story ginned up by the useful idiots of the MSM to allow the Islamic radicals time to seize power.
Is there any doubt that Iran, the Black Scorpion, has finally concluded that Obama is a one-term president? The Mullahs and Ahmadinejad must believe that their unique historical opportunity to extend the New Islamic Caliphate from Morocco to Turkey including Saudi Arabia, without the intervention of the US Sixth Fleet, ends in less than 650 days.
