Do try reading what you pointed to before ending up with egg on your face. The question stands, please show where we did either, if there are none it makes the entire piece questionable at best. I know the right likes to over react to what is happening in other countries but let us stick with Facts while discussing those events.
The US is sending warships, including one with 800 troops, and other military assets to Egypt as the revolution in the North African country gains momentum.
... The move comes after reports last month that a US Army aviation regiment had been mobilized for deployment to Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula to back the Multinational Force and Observers overseeing the Egypt-Israel peace treaty.
The U.S. government approved $40billion in private arms sales to countries including Libya and Egypt in 2009 - before they both dissolved into unrest this year - the State Department reported.
... The figures show $458,000 in tear gas sales licensed to Egypt, where there were numerous reports that U.S.-supplied crowd-control gas suppressed democracy protesters in Cairo.
Tear gas sold in 2009?? Yep - this was the plan from the beginning.
