The silence continues to be deafening with no Democrat in Congress, to my knowledge, crying out against President Obama for continuing to try to diminish the U.S. closeness to Israel.
The president is apparently attempting to placate the Sunni Muslim countries in order to establish a coalition opposed to the increasing power of the Shiite Muslim state of Iran that towers in the region like a colossus. The president fails to realize, however, that sacrificing the U.S.-Israel relationship is both unnecessary and dangerous.
The Sunni Arab countries are petrified of Irans growing power and are actually aligned with Israel in their opposition to Iran. Furthermore, I have stated before, treating Israel as the problem only emboldens the radical elements in the Middle East and makes the prospect of another Arab-Israeli war more likely.
Only through steadfast U.S. support of Israel will the Arab countries realize that the Jewish state is here to stay. That, in turn, will lead to peace.
While the president continues to hammer Israel, the Iranian nuclear threat increases by the day. The Times reported today that Mr. Gates had warned in a secret three-page memo that the United States did not have an effective long-range policy for dealing with Irans steady progress toward nuclear capability.
Our efforts to assemble the needed coalition of nations to impose meaningful sanctions against Iran at the Security Council have failed. Furthermore, todays New York Times reports on the efforts of the Obama administration to woo American Muslims with the headline White House Quietly Courts Muslims In the U.S.

Who can worry about Iran when we have armed tea partiers running loose in plain sight?
There is no threat from Iran! It’s those darn Tea Partiers I tell ya! ... and Rush Limbaugh too, he could ruin our Democracy!
This President will do nothing about Iran.....count on it.
I’m sure Obama can talk his way out of this one
Bill Clinton all over again.
Didn’t Louis Freeh among other people claim that Clinton was too busy chasing phantom domestic terrorists to worry about islamic terrorism?
So get the Bush two-state solution started already. Or make it a one-state democracy with both living together then Iran can’t wipe out Israel without wiping out the Palestinians.
Eddie, baby, the guy’s a Muzzie and a commie. These two groups have not exactly rolled out the red carpet for Jews in the past. And it was all quite predictable really unless, of course, you were blinded by the pernicious ideology of the liberal Democrat.
this self proclaimed ‘Liberal with Common Sense’....who voted for Bush in 2004 but voted and backed zer0bama in 2008 and later ‘recinded his support’ for Obama, obviously had NO common sense and wants us to listen to him in backing Israel now....do me a favor Ed get Obama to back Israel...and dont come crawling to the right.
Too late for you Ed, you have your liberal anti-semite Pres__ent....enjoy Israel while it lasts....
The Palestinians will be considered martyrs for the cause ...
“This President will do nothing about Iran.....count on it.”
Fair is fair..I wouldn’t attack my people, either...
The The oath of office has been violated many times. November seems a long way off.
At least there seems to be an awakening to the propaganda spin.
and the 82% Jewish vote for Obama speaks volumes!
Good point but we don’t think the way they do. They have no problem attacking their own people......including relatives.....if ordered to do so. Life has a different meaning to them than it does to us.
“Good point but we dont think the way they do. They have no problem attacking their own people......including relatives.....if ordered to do so. Life has a different meaning to them than it does to us.”
Good point...except for the children...they “love” the children...
As long as they are boys.

Iran is almost as big a “threat” as global warming.
Both are bunk.
