Losing patience, Obama challenges Egypt's leaders

Right now, the last thing any middle eastern country wants is advice from the United States. Further, the last thing on this planet that they care about is your lack of patience.

In his final statement, Obama challenged Egypt's leaders to plainly explain what the new changes mean and how they would help those who have led an uprising since late January.

Where do you derive standing to make such a demand of Egypt's leaders? What warrants your requirement of an explanation of internal affairs?

You have clearly demonstrated that you cannot fix everything. In fact, you have yet to prove that you can fix anything.

So, step back, take a breath and hit the pause button. If there is diplomatic work to be done, let the diplomats do their jobs.
