If you have not been paying attention, here is the skinny on the Middle East:
They are not trying to kill Gadafi. If he survives this invasion, the humanitarian war effort will have been a waste of time.
Al Qaeda has joined with the rebels in Libya, at least on some fronts.
The Muslim Brotherhood, responsible for killing Anwar Sadat many years ago (the President of Egypt) , is reportedly "energized" as they participate in the political reorganization that is going on in Egypt.
Gaza has increased its terrorist attacks on Israel and Israel, is threatening a heavy retaliation.
Oil has increased to $106 per 42 gallon barrel of sweet crude, threatening the weak recovery that is going on in our country.
35% of homes are "up-side down" as relates to their equity status with 11% of all homes in this country sitting vacant.
Unemployment remains at 8.9% according to the Department of Labor; 10.2% according to Gallup.
Other than that, things are going pretty darn good.
