that Jimmy Carter turned out to be in the 1979 revolt in Iran. There never could have been two more clueless presidents elected in our lifetimes. With friends like Obama ...who needs enemies???
2. Moderate Mubarak Was America's Ally
Linda Rivera ,   New York, USA   (01.28.12)
It is very, very sad that Mubarak will NOT receive any help from the Obama/Clinton Administration. Obama made a special point of inviting his big favorites, the Muslim Brotherhood, to his speech in Cairo. Behind the scenes, America worked to oust U.S. ally, moderate Mubarak, in order to bring to power the Muslim Brotherhood, whose stated goal is the DESTRUCTION of civilization and global Islamic conquest.
3. Since Mubarak's Ouster, Egypt has become aFar more Dangerous

place. Egypt is no longer a safe place for tourists to visit. Most especially, if you are a Jew, Christian, or any other non-Muslim. Since moderate Mubarak's ouster, Muslim attacks on Egyptian Christians, their homes, churches and businesses has increased enormously. Muslim male kidnappings of female Christian children has also increased enormously. Not only does Mubarak and his family need rescuing, so does the entire Christian population who live in daily fear.

zivron   (01.28.12)
Obama is a two faced nasty piece of work .

11. #6 Steve Benassi - Stop being naive
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (01.29.12)
Name a single Arab country that is Democratic?? They're all corrupt Now Egypt is having a new form of Government, no matter you may call it, it will be as corrupt or corrupter than the previous Why don't you condemn Assad, who is killing his own people, or the regime in Libya who are jousting to see will the next set of rulers You talk like a child!!
12. Egyptian solders were following orders
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (01.29.12)
So said the Nazi's at the Nuremberg trials
13. I have the answer...
Abdel Karim Salim ,   Jerusalem   (01.29.12)
Former Egyptian president Husni Mubarak will not be sentenced to death and will not be executed.Why don't you just think of how America, the Europen Union,and the Free World would react if the current Egyptian regime executed an old and ailing former president who served his country militarily for decades and who acquired an honorable military record in his life ? His trial in court now is only and basically and largely a show game to quiet the Egyptian people who seem to be running amuck... !
14. a sickening show trial for the crowds
zionist forever   (01.29.12)
There was plenty of corruption that went on and I am sure in other areas of life Mubarak was no angel but fact is he was no Saddam Hussain and he is being put on trial for the masses not for serious crimes. They are wheeling this man in his 80s into court on a hospital trolley barely able to speak, they put him in a specially constructed cage in the court and he faces the death sentence. Better Mubarak dies with some dignity from natural causes before this show trial ends and he gets lunched.
15. Mubarak's trial is an Egyptian Circus
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (01.29.12)
to divert the Egyptian people from the fact that they are no better off now than they were before the Revolution Half the population still barely exists on less than $2 a day, per capita; multitudes are living in Cemeteries among the dead because they can't afford housing among the living The Military is still in control, as it has been ever since Farouk was kicked out In general the trial reminds me of the Roman area, where they threw victims to Lions or had Gladiators kill each other, in order to divert the public’s attention
