This is what bothers me about the Muslim world---it's violence towards and oppression of women!!!!

Would that be the entire population of Muslims around the world?

Good to know that there is no such thing as women being sexually assaulted, there is no violence against women, and there isn't a war on women to suppress and oppress in the morally correct USofA.

Hello? Nobody wants him. The petition that called for him to step aside is signed by over HALF of the Egyptian population.

You are an American, with little to no clue about Arabic politics, who are you to judge a people who are fighting to try and get a democratic government? For your information the Egyptian army is the most respectable army in the middle-east (Aside from Jordan) Abd Al Nasser built a national army for the people.

You claim that we are just living to be oppressed and killed is that right? Well you're right, we are dogs who don't deserve life. *sarcasm*

Please, you are ignorant, you have no clue what's happening here in the Arab world, don't try to push your nose into something that your government caused when they funded the Muslim Brotherhood. We have the right for safety and the pursuit of happiness regardless of what the failure of the constitution claimed.

You're telling us that we should just go along with what we elect and have no right to change it and lecture us that we are not being democratic when we vote for change.

The right for change is the very pillar of life. Not governments or democracy, but life as we know it. You are not abiding by any law whatsoever when you take that right form us, but rather you are going against nature.
Here we go. It's America's fault. I do agree we have no business in your business. I get it. Muslims have to be cutting someone's head off to be happy. Just keep your medieval culture over there and let your streets fill with blood. We are much safer when you are busy killing yourselves rather than coming to our country to kill us.

First off, I'm Christian. The pre-emptive assumption that I'm a Muslim simply because I'm an Arab is idiotic to say the least.

Second of all, the U.S supported Morsi's regime and thus is involved in it.

Also, aren't you the people who invaded our nations and gave Israel billions and billions of dollars in military aid to kill innocent Palestinians?

The U.S has killed more Arabs than Arabs have killed Americans.

You bombed Iraq, displaced hundreds of thousands of innocent people, supplied arms to the Syrian Free Army which have underwent so much corruption that it's barely recognisable, supplies 3 billion of foreign aid to a nation that wishes to ethnically cleanse a people and you call US the people who only killed a couple thousand Americans evil?

You are brainwashed. Stop interfering in our business, get out of our countries. Gamal Abd Al Nasser was right, democracy is something that we have to achieve on our own, as a united people.

Are you seriously telling me that after everything the U.S has done to the Arab world, that after all that bloodshed, we're the ones who should stop interfering?

P.S: Radical extremists represent Arabs the same way the KKK represents Americans.

But we've made it our business for a very long time now.
We have caused havoc in almost every ME country because of sticking our nose into where it doesn't belong.

That military and the Brotherhood wouldn't be as powerful as they are today if the US wasn't involved.

Because US propaganda has people thinking we've done nothing but try to help the people in the ME and they turned on us via terrorism.

When, in fact, terrorism is the result of the US meddling in affairs it shouldn't and setting up governments for its own benefit until that leader becomes a liability and then it's time for a "new government".

Obama supported democracy in the form of fair elections and a Morsi victory over the Mubarak dictatorship. So did Egypt. So did you, probably. Now that you prefer mob rule over democracy, Obama is bad because he gave grudging support to your elected leadership. But you are right. We should stay out of the middle east. I have never been in favor of US meddling around the world, though I do understand why it is done.

Exactly. So much for keeping our nose out of it.
