The article discusses the author's views on the radical change in the U.S. foreign policy which now supports the Islamist extremists group called the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt. He cites the ultraconservative Salafist politicians that have become regular visitors to the U.S. Embassy. The author thinks that the U.S. tried Middle Eastern repression to achieve stability, but it only got a terrorism-breeding society of frustrated Arabs under tyrants.
