Not Stepping Down .....Mubarak: I Am an Arab Warrior, Not a Community Organizer

Mubarak: I Am an Arab Warrior, Not a Community Organizer
This is a huge lesson in political culture. It also shows just how bad the media coverage has been. Mubarak is not resigning. He’s managing the “reform” process. He is appointing a committee to study constitutional changes. He will decide when there are elections. He is going to “consider” changing the emergency law. He basically said: I am an Arab warrior, not a community organizer. That speech should be required reading for anyone who wants to understand the Middle East.
This is not over yet. There has been no revolution so far, but the protesters are going to freak out. If Obama has been interpreted as applauding real and major change, either he didn’t know what Mubarak was going to say or he is going to look like a total fool.
When Mubarak said he won’t accept outside advice, that was a direct slap at Obama. Can you imagine the expression on Obama’s face as he watched the speech after being told by his intelligence that Mubarak resigned? After he made a speech about how the youth had forced change? If I had to summarize it, tabloid-style, I’d say: “Mubarak to Obama: Drop Dead!“
The regime is not giving in — Mubarak will leave office, perhaps in September, but the regime will fight on. The speech was the equivalent of Charles Bronson or Clint Eastwood saying: Come and get me!
Of course, we should not forget that this is a dictator refusing to step down. Mubarak and the army knew that this would inflame the crowd. The army would not have agreed to this unless it was willing to deal with the consequences.
Wild Thing's comment.......
GREAT writei up from the ever-insightful Barry Rubin at The Corner.
I heard from a man on Fox saying the speech was more of an act of war speech. Mubarak definitely told Obama what he thinks of him and I can’t say I blame him. Obama is constantly getting his skinny ass handed over to him on a platter by other countries.
I am not a fan of Mubarak and I sure as heck am not a fan of dictator obama. But it sure feels good to have someone telling obama to shove it. I think most people including myself are not sure what the heck is going on with Mubarak and Egypt and the protestors. It is very confusing. All the more reason for obama to stop favoring his Muslim Brotherhood to take over.
All I do know 100% is the effect of what they do in Egypt will have on Israel and the rest of the world and THAT is what concerns me more then anything.
How many countries are there now in which has Obama strained our relations? Let's see: England, France, Spain, Israel, I think Germany,(except for some German people, but I think the powers in office have had their fill of Obama), Russia is not enamored, nor frightened, of him, nor is China. And now Egypt has told Obama to drop dead and basically told him to go away and play back on the school playground while the grownups of the world make their own decisions.
