I found the domestic policy section to be enlightening. But the rest was naive conventional wisdom. Democracy promotion in nearly every case has been subservient to perceived economic interests. Big oil more than anything else dominates our position in the middle east.

The issue with multilaterslism is that it's not as simple as people think. It often leads to a paralysis in decision making and action. And whole Rome burns... the U.S. have been forced to take unilateral policy stances that some may deem problematic.

Maybe he was trying to explain about the relation of Egypt on Middle East. I believe that he knows that Egypt is located geographically in Africa, but it's geopolitical area of influence and interaction emcompasses North Africa and Middle East for sure.
