Just as the planes and tanks with Israeli operators were provided by America, so too were the tanks and planes with Egyptians and Syrians behind the controls provided by the Soviet Union.

Yup. I agree, Dave. Egypt always tends to depend on it's military to settle their democratic upheavals. Sometimes the military lets civilians establish a new government after things cool down, and sometimes decide to run things themselves for a while.

I wonder what Mona Mee, the OP of this thread over 4 years ago, would say now.

I am afraid she believes the op official line just like most in the Arab world. believe what they are told by authority controlled media. As they say; when you con yourself your in trouble.Now the live with the same military leaders in control they wanted to put on trial for crimes committed during the last governments control.
