So much for Obama's support, help and backing for Arab Spring. The aftermath of such help is beginning to show. Burning the American flag, storming the American embassy and killing its Ambassador are merely the beginning of a saga that was bound to happen sooner or later and all this over a badly made film with terrible actors. Many were quick to condemn the film and inciting the Islamic world. My question 'what does NOT incite them'. As events continue to unfold, there is news that the attack was well planned to coincide with America's 9/11 eleventh anniversary. What did Obama do? The usual apologies to appease the Muslim world. Churchill had correctly identified appeasement as feeding the crocodile and hoping it will eat him last.
The incidents and current turmoil in Libya and Egypt also speak volumes about America's continuing monetary support to both these countries. We, as Americans should be asking a very legitimate question about why our tax dollars are going toward funding killers and haters of America. Did Obama know what he was getting into when he gave his support to the so called democratic movement? Is this what Arab Spring represented? Was Democracy ever the intended result or did radical groups like the Muslim Brotherhood hoodwink the western world and especially America into doing their dirty work of getting rid of dictators and others standing in their way to legitimate power? The world is unfortunately witnessing a rise of radical Islamic ascendency.

Zawahiri was a radical man, in fact a terrorist; Muslim Brotherhood has a radical agenda (charter), the Egyptian dictator was able to keep them in check for decades. Most informed people around the world rightly believe Muslim Brotherhood to be radical. As this is an opinion piece, I consider MB to be an extremely radical group as well. Thank you for your comment.
