These are turbulent times. American embassies in Pakistan, Libya, Egypt and Tunisia are under siege. Ambassador Christopher Stevens and other brave Americans were murdered. Yet, in a 60-Minutes interview, Obama describes these crises as “bumps in the road.”
Worse, Obama says Israel’s unease about Iran getting a nuclear weapon is merely “noise.” Noise? And while Obama has time to meet with Whoopi Goldberg, he snubs Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, refusing to meet Israel’s elected leader while he is in the United States.
It all follows a pattern. Visiting Egypt, but not setting foot in Israel.
Calling on Israel to withdraw to the 1967 borders with land swaps.
Reneging on his campaign promise to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.
Obama’s Jimmy Carter-style foreign policy is naïve and dangerous in these perilous times.
WE CAN DO BETTER THAN BARACK OBAMA. WE MUST DO BETTER THAN BARACK OBAMA
