Note
Secretary of State John Kerry launched the latest edition of the State Department's Human Rights Reports. Euphemism was the order of the day. He talks about the "Arab awakening" - though more sleep, and less killing might be a good place to start. He also refers to "serious hurdles to sustainable democracy in Egypt." One vote didn't render Egypt a democracy - as Morsi's constitutional rewrite attests. And he says MidEast political structures are "outmoded." Dictatorships aren't out of fashion. They're wrong.
