US warships go to Egypt

http://www.presstv.ir/detail/164038.html
The United States has sent warships and troops to Egypt.
The US military on board have been told they cannot contact anyone.
It looks therefore like they are ready to move soon.
What is this show of force there for?
Are they there as a threat to those hoping to change and create democratic govt in Egypt?
Are they there to warn those wanting to keep the dictator, Mubarak, and his entourage in power?
It is clear that the general opinion in the streets of Cairo is that people want rid of the US just as much as they want Mubarak and his cronies to go. They know perfectly well that the US have supported a corrupt government in Egypt financially. The US has reportedly given 1.3 billion dollars per annum in military aid. ie the US has supplied this dictator with the tanks and teargas now threatening protesters in the streets of the city.
Even greater sums in aid were given supposedly for education and to alleviate poverty. Sums that have most likely gone directly to line the dicators pockets.
It is obvious that the cash is a reward, paid to Mubarak, as long as he is willing to look after US and the West's interests in the Middle East regardless of poverty and suppression in the country.

It seems to me that the US arriving with a show of force in this situation could be construed as readiness to protect Western interests rather than support for a grass roots heartfelt revolution.
The only place I can find coverage of the arrival of warships is on Press TV. No other channel seems to find it news worthy that the greatest force in the world is showing up on the doorstep of a Middle East country in the throws of revolution.
Perhaps it is not surprising, then, that when Press TV went offline, I got very worried. There have already been leaks showing that certain members of our Government are looking for excuses to get Press TV off the air.
It is back on now thank goodness.
Egypt is in a very important place for the West and its corporate interest in the Middle East. It is obvious that whoever the Egyptian people choose to govern will not be supporters of the Israelis. That is very threatening to our corporate dictators in the west.
For many years now their puppet has ensured that the balance of power is firmly in Israeli hands.
The explosions of a pipeline to Jordan seems quite significant to me. Surely a threat to gas supply like this will be a cause for concern. The media is very quiet about it. Is that because it was a false flag operation in the hope that the cry of 'terrorism' would allow MUBARAK to put down the revolution with force?
I do not believe I will be able to sit back and watch our Govt destroy Egypt as it has destroyed Iraq. If 2 million did not stop Blair marching into Iraq in our name, How many of us will need to get out there demonstrating on behalf of Egypt?
I think the boil of corruption in the Middle is at a head and beginning to burst. Hope our students will be ready to mass for something a bit more important than there own self interest. If the arab nations can do something in the face of their suppression. Surely we can too.
