US: No objection to Egyptian nuclear program
http://rawstory.com/news/afp/US_No_objection_to_Egyptian_nuclear_10292007.html


"We are working with some countries in order to help them get there. But in regards to the Egyptian program, that report just came across. I don't know any more specifics about it," Perino told reporters.

She was speaking shortly after Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak said that Egypt planned to build several nuclear power stations, relaunching a nuclear program frozen more than 20 years ago.

Egypt initiated a nuclear energy programme in the 1970s but abandoned it in 1986 after the Chernobyl nuclear catastrophe. Mubarak's regime recently outlined plans to revive it.

3. No objection when it's Royal Bushie Vassals, of course.
Royal Bushie Vassals such as Pinochet and Ferdinand Marcos were known for their wisdom, probity, and decency.

5. Pol Pot was no Bushie. Bush-like, yes, but a Bushie.
Pol Pot was a Stalinist, if I recall correctly, and while Stalinism and Bushevism share many aspects, as all totalitarian nations do.

But Pol was not a Bushie.

Just had to set the record straight on that one.
