I don't know whether I support what we are doing or am strongly opposed, because I cannot figure out what the hell is going on. Obama supported Mubarak and then he demanded he resign and let the rebels take over. But who is leading those rebels now? It appears the extremist Muslim Brotherhood and the military have joined forces and those who demonstrated on behalf of liberty in Egypt will have little if any voice.
We let Europe drag us into war in Libya on the side of those opposed to Gadaffi but the president says we don't want to hurt Gadaffi.. Governments all over the Mideast are being challenged. How do we decide whom we support and whom we oppose? Will we support the rebellion in Saudi Arabia and lose an important ally who supplies us with oil? This country needs a policy we can understand and a leader who can lead, but it does not appear we will get either one.
