“Egypt’s ruling military council, in
turn, has been suggesting for months that the United States may have been
financing nonprofit human-rights groups and democracy-building groups with an

that has emanated from the military-led government. The generals have often
sought to blame outbursts of violence in the streets on such foreign
interference.” New York Times, January 26, 2012, page 1.
Gee, I wonder where the Egyptians ever
got the impression that the United States would meddle in their domestic
affairs, even to the point of fomenting public unrest? Let me see: Iran, Iraq,
Vietnam, Cuba, Guatemala, El Salvador, Chile, Venezuela, Afghanistan, Pakistan…..did
I miss any?
