Check your facts dude.



From what I have read he made most of his money from kickbacks while in the Airforce. He had the task of rebuilding the Egyptian airforce in the 70s. Kickbacks in the arms trade are all too familiar, just ask BAE.

Every foreign company that operates in Egypt has to have an Egyptian partner and give them a 40% stake in the business.


Not to be picky hlen but I read it was 51%, This is important as it would give the Egyptian partner the overall control.

Panda just had to bring up Halliburton..That's kind of a stretch, don't you think ?


Only for you.

The theft of public funds is still theft, just on a lesser scale.

Actually, this isn't unusual.  Grand Cayman has the same law.

I received this, and thought I would share it for comments. As I dont know much about what is going on in Egypt and Murbarak, Im reading what is posted and trying to catch up on it all.

I read your Mubarak post and can not participate in the message boards but what you did not mention is that your government kept Mubarak in the saddle and his wealth is paid by your taxes. The Dutch media named this several times. This means Obama and those before him are worse than Mubarak.


I mentioned what the article mentioned. I offered the article up for thoughts and opinions. They are not my opinions.
