Dear John Kerry: You Do Realize How Ridiculous You Sound, Don't You?

Obviously not, since the SOTUS with the leastest claims that the latest bloodshed in Egypt means that the "Arab Spring" is still playing itself out. Moreover, he says, the best thing Egypt could do is go back to the polls a.s.a.p.:
WASHINGTON - US Secretary of State John Kerry on Wednesday urged Egypt's military to allow elections and for all sides to avoid further violence.

Denouncing the crackdown on supporters of ousted president Mohamed Morsi, Kerry urged a "peaceful, democratic way forward."

"Today's events are deplorable and they run counter to Egyptian aspirations for peace, inclusion and genuine democracy," Kerry told reporters.

"The interim government and the military -- which together possess the preponderance of power in this confrontation -- have a unique responsibility to prevent further violence and to offer constructive options for an inclusive peaceful process across the political spectrum," Kerry said.

"This includes amending the constitution and holding parliamentary and presidential elections, which the interim government itself has called for," he said.

"All parties also share a responsibility to avoid violence and to participate in a productive path towards a political solution," he said, pointing to the opposition.

Kerry said that a political solution was the only option but acknowledged: "It has been made much, much harder and much, much more complicated by the events of today."...
No kidding. Do you know what else has made the situation harder and much, much more complicated? Looking at it through the lens of a fictitious Arab Spring, misaffixing that "diversity" crap to jihadis and their opponents,and asserting that elections (which would likely put the MuBros back in power) are the cure for what ails 'em.

Update: All he is sayin' is give megalomaniacal, Jew-hating Islamists who have an agenda to restore the caliphate a chance...Everybody sing!

Update: When the going gets tough, ElBaradei gets going.

Update: The feckless Obama White House calls for "restraint." Um, it's a tad late for that, no?

Update: The Arab Spring's not merely dead it's really most sincerely dead.
