NYT calls out the hypocrisy of the Egyptian Government on Gaza
David Kirkpatrick takes a swing at Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood president today. Apparently it’s not kosher to play peacemaker while openly favoring one side over the other, and Morsi has made it plain who he holds responsible for the current crisis.
There is no hint in David’s article that he is aware that this is exactly how America and “the quartet” have been seen by most of the world, and especially the Muslim world, for the past fifty years. It does indeed undermine the credibility of the peacemakers when they clearly hold one side blameless.
In America’s case and in the Nations of Virtue generally we finance and arm one side and continuously blame the other, yet we hold ourselves out to be credible “honest brokers”.
The main difference between our hypocrisy and that of Morsi is that he’s only been at it for five days.
We’ve been at it for fifty years.
