Iran reaches out to Egypt in bid for increased regional power

Thirteen hundred years ago Islam was the latest thing in religion and social organisation. These days we have orbiting space stations, supercomputers in our pocket phones, and particle accelerators probing the instant of Creation. None of this in mentioned in the Koran. Islam was invented to regiment the tribes on the Arabian Peninsular for wars of conquest, and very successful it was. However, it has no utility in this Great Age of Science in which we live, except perhaps to enrich a parasitic Clerical Establishment, like in Iran.

iran's khamenei wants to ruin popular revolutions (arab spring). from this aspect he is like western powers who have this desire too.

they are so worried their money has not bought them any influence in the ME affairs. Contrary to what it looks, S. Arabia is at the end of Islamic fundamentalist terrorist rope and it has nowhere to go. Therefore, the Saudi gang(sters) are doing their best to muddy the water between the real powers in the ME. They will fail.

Your headline lies. It proclaims the truth and no doubt the text seems to subtantiate it. I like Jewish people. Why does Israel have to be so duplicitous and so like the anti-Jew stereotype. Why do we have these imaginary "power" contraptions? Iran wants to be friends with Egypt and thereby lessen the Sunni vs Shia violence. What is wrong with that?

... share in our future Caliphate fame with Egypt let us build our (Trojan Horse of Terror) Embassy in downtown Cairo and we promise it will be an architectural marvel from which (the most insidious terrorists partnering with the MB militants will disembark) on a daily basis we will break bread and have chai and baklava together.

Israel is constantly reaching out for increased regional power. Why shouldn't Iran do the same?

Saudiarabia is ruled by diktators sponsored by USA ana some EURO countries. Saudis must shut up and do their own business.
