Since day one of the democratic uprising of the Egyptian people against Hosni Mubarak, elite Washington debated how to react to the fast-changing events in Egypt.
One idea we never heard: AN APOLOGY.
Join us in calling for President Obama to issue an apology to the people of Egypt. Add your name to this message:
***
We call on you, Mr. President, to apologize to the people of Egypt on behalf of the U.S. public for our government’s crime of having propped up a vicious dictator all these years. Make it simple, make it clear, without equivocation. And do it quickly.
A forthright apology can help us reset our relationship with the people of Egypt, who suffered deeply and long under the U.S.-supported Mubarak dictatorship, which used the $1.3 billion in annual U.S. military aid to repress and intimidate Egyptians.
We need a new direction, Mr. President. And we will take it upon ourselves to engage in people-to-people diplomacy.
The undersigned urge you to apologize on our behalf – and pledge to extend our own loud and clear apology to the people of Egypt.
Plot Outline: The American artist couple Port and Kit Moresby travel aimlessly through Africa, searching for new experiences that could give sense to their relationship. But the flight to distant regions only leads both deeper into despair.
Runtime: 138 min
Awards: Won Golden Globe. Another 4 wins & 2 nominations
Cast: Debra Winger, John Malkovich, Campbell Scott, Jill Bennett, Timothy Spall, Eric Vu-An, Amina Annabi, Philippe Morier-Genoud, Sotigui Kouyaté, Tom Novembre...
