Egypt Is Kind Of Insane, Dangerous

Remember that time last year when we said that "Egypt is one disgruntled general away from being the most dangerous country on Earth"? Or that other time last year when we said that Egypt is "the world's most dangerous country, minus one disgruntled general". Here is Allahpundit's breakdown of the latest polls taken in the Muslim world:

The bad news: everything else, including/especially the results from Egypt, where 60% thought suicide bombings were often or sometimes justified in attacking an enemy... Very quietly, Egypt has become one of the most radical Muslim countries in the world. As you scroll, compare its results to the results from, say, Pakistan.

(1) See? Never question us in front of the children again
(2) You know what would be really sweet? If Egypt developed a robust nuclear program and started making noises about pursuing nukes. That would be awesome!
