    Default Obama got warning about Egypt in 2010 says CIA

    U.S. intelligence agencies warned President Obama and the White House last year that instability in Egypt could threaten the rule of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, a CIA official said.

    Testifying before the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, Stephanie O'Sullivan, the CIA's associate deputy director, was asked about briefings and warnings provided to the White House about Egypt.

    "We have warned of instability," O'Sullivan told the committee. "We didn't know what the triggering mechanism would be for that. And that happened at the end of the last year."
    A U.S. official familiar with the intelligence said, "Analysts anticipated and highlighted the concern that unrest in Tunisia might spread well before demonstrations erupted in Cairo. They later warned that unrest in Egypt would likely gain momentum and could threaten the regime."

    At the beginning of O 'Sullivan's confirmation hearing, intelligence committee Chairman Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., expressed her concern over the quality of information that was provided to top U.S. policy makers.

    "The president, the secretary of state and the Congress are making policy decisions on Egypt, and those policymakers deserve timely intelligence analysis," Feinstein said. "I have doubts whether the intelligence community lived up to its obligations in this area."

    He's just helping his muzzie brethren out. What did America expect?

    What would you have had him do if so forewarned? Even if Obongo wins the next election (and if the best that the opposition can muster is braindead barbie Sarah Palin then it will be a slam dunk for him) that is it. Two terms max, right? Mubarak is a dictator who has been in power for 30 years with no way of getting him out. Funded to the tune of $1Bn per year by the US. The 2nd largest recipient of US oversea aid largesse, next to Israel. Best thing is to let events take their course. Imagine if Obongo changed the constitution to allow him to stay on as Dear Leader forever with no more elections? Well that's exactly what Mubarak did. Good riddance to bad rubbish...

    Obama also got warnings about having to actually be a citizen to be president too, but he din't heed those.

    It may not be too long before the National Mall looks like Cairo's Tahrir Square.
