Conflicts and Interests – “Mubarak should stay” ?

"President Mubarak's continued leadership is critical: it's his opportunity to write his own legacy" says Frank Wisner, Obama’s US envoy to Egypt during the crisis. As a result Obama and Clinton came out in support for Mubarak ...

DANGER – DISINFO

While there are a few things wrong with this statement, lets not waste ink stating the bleeding obvious.

So where is the disinfo and who is the victim?

Well it turns out Frank Wisner works for Mubarak ... [SockRatEz says: are you fucking kidding me?]

[Ferretous says: well he works for Patton Boggs in Egypt ... which works for ... ]

So was Obama a victim of Frank Wisner disinfo?

Unlikely he, or Hillary, did not know that Wisner’s employer, Patton Boggs "represent some of the leading Egyptian commercial families and their companies" and "have been involved in oil and gas and telecommunications infrastructure projects on their behalf" as espoused by the company itself. One of its partners served as chairman of the US-Egyptian Chamber of Commerce promoting foreign investment in the Egyptian economy.

The NY Times ran a glowing profile on Frank Wisner about two weeks ago. No mention of his ties to Egypt [more blatant disinfo]

[Ferretous says: although funnily enough, since it his cover was blown, the NYT has updated the profile (4th Feb) and now include the Egypt connection - I admit that I cannot prove the original did not include the reference, how much do you trust the Independent]
