U.S Involvement in Egypt

So there were several things I wanted to discuss this week and perhaps I will post again on other topics later this week. Tonight as I logged on to the Internet, this headline caught my attention and THIS headline was the deciding factor in tonight's post.

On Yahoo's homepage: "Egypt protest leader urges U.S to act".

For those of you who have not read the news this week, Egypt is falling apart. Riots, violence and theft of ancient relics. And the call for the overthrowing of a dictator. The people are tired of being oppressed and are standing up now to this dictator but in doing so, there has been a surge of violence. The situation in Egypt is dire and it was only a matter of time before the inevitable was requested. Now, as I imagine, once the U.S does get involved, because we most likely will, many will have missed this key request and will assume that the U.S is sticking it's nose where it does not belong once again.

Gray Matter

Wow! My first blog! This is pretty fun and exciting. So this will be the start of hopefully many posts that have been initiated via my Political Science class at Metropolitan State College of Denver. For my peers...you already know this as we are all in the same boat now.

I must say that when I first read the assignment, I was intimidated and excited all at the same time as I have been dying to try blogging. I never imagined my first blog would be created with politics in mind but rather something more along the lines of relationships, fashion, friend dilemmas...you know, everyday regular stuff that extends beyond a Facebook status update. But with my ability to talk about virtually any subject under the sun, this promises to be quite the adventure.
