The flotilla of boats intercepted by Israel this week flew the Turkish flag and was paid for by a charity deeply implicated in Islamic terrorism. But the captain of the fleet was none other than Barack Obama.

Over those months Obama has seldom showed anger toward rogue Muslim governmentsnot toward the appalling human rights abuses of the genocidal Bashir regime in Sudan. Not toward the government of Iran as it pursues its nuclear weapons program.
Obama refused to meddle in Irans affairs after the deadly crackdown against protestors following the Islamic Republics sham elections. But he was described as seething with anger only moments after hearing about a routine decision by Jerusalems municipal government to authorize housing units in a well established Jewish neighborhood.
