Many people are surprised to see Hillary Clinton doubling down on supporting what has become a Radical Islamist uprising. We’re not. This is to be expected from the woman who joined forces with Samantha Power to push “rebel” support in Libya.
Quite simply, if you cut to the chase it is the Liberal anti-Israel mindset. We outlined it here. And gave the reason for it HERE
The ideology, which by the way is the same as Jimmy Carter, has no conception of unintended consequences. If the Muslim Brotherhood rise, meh, no biggie, their choice.

Liberals do not stand for Freedom, they stand for Democracy. They support mob rule; they always have.
(Reuters) – The United States must look past the violence and extremism that has erupted after the “Arab Spring” revolutions and boost support for the region’s young democracies to forge long-term security, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said on Friday.

“But we have to stand with those who are working every day to strengthen democratic institutions, defend universal rights, and drive inclusive economic growth. That will produce more capable partners and more durable security over the long term.”
