So what do they want democracy for? This is scary. These are not "secular", democracy seeking good guys. This is not like the fall of the Berlin Wall. Anyone (including John McCain who) called for immediate step down of Mubarak is cheering for a "no government" chaos, in Islamofascist takeover, imminent war on Israel, loss of an American ally in the middle East, greater risk of war between Middle Easter states (jockeying for power in the Caliphate), and probably WWIII. Among highlights from the Pew Poll:
This reminds me. We need a law prohibiting any conceivable aspect of Sharia law from in any way, ever, influencing our legal and governmental systems (Dearborn MI).• 49% of Egyptians say Islam plays only a "small role" in public affairs under President Hosni Mubarak, while 95% prefer the religion play a "large role in politics."
• 84% favor the death penalty for people who leave the Muslim faith.
• 82% support stoning adulterers.
• 77% think thieves should have their hands cut off.
• 54% support a law segregating women from men in the workplace.
• 54% believe suicide bombings that kill civilians can be justified.
• Nearly half support the terrorist group Hamas.
• 30% have a favorable opinion of Hezbollah.
• 20% maintain positive views of al-Qaida and Osama bin Laden.
• 82% of Egyptians dislike the U.S. — the highest unfavorable rating among the 18 Muslim nations Pew surveyed.
