The scandal engulfing two of our top military and intelligence officers could not be coming at a worse time: the Middle East has never been more unstable and closer to multiple, interconnected explosions. Virtually every American president since Dwight Eisenhower has had a Middle Eastern country that brought him grief. For Ike, it was Lebanons civil war and Israels Sinai invasion. For Lyndon Johnson, it was the 1967 Six-Day War. For Nixon, it was the 1973 war. For Carter, it was the Iranian Revolution. For Ronald Reagan, it was Lebanon. For George H.W. Bush, it was Iraq. For Bill Clinton, it was Al Qaeda and Afghanistan. For George W. Bush, it was Iraq and Afghanistan. For Barack Obamas first term, it was Iran and Afghanistan, again. And for Obamas second term, I fear that it could be the full nightmare all of them at once. The whole Middle East erupts in one giant sound and light show of civil wars, states collapsing and refugee dislocations, as the keystone of the entire region Syria gets pulled asunder and the disorder spills across the neighborhood.

I'd suggest that Egypt is more likely the keystone.
Obama isn’t having a nightmare, he’s busy with his jihad against unbelievers
The big difference is the guy in the WH hasn’t a clue what to do. His main intent was to get re elected. He left four people to die. By the grace of God, and in fact the bravery of two of these men, 30 more Americans were not killed or made hostage.
I hold my breath, because it’s clear any day it will erupt. Does anyone NOT believe that the current assault on Israel is happening because of Obama’s reelection? This is just the beginning. They’re pushing Israel into war to test what Obama will do...
Upon a moments reflection, it’s clear that Israel is the keystone of the ME.
And, we have the most inexperienced, corrupt bunch of children running this country.
This is Obama’s dream come true—to destroy the US economy and to weaken us globally. Obama and the LEFT have worked very hard to get these results.
US foreign policy: Foment chaos, overthrow secular dictatorships, advance the Muslim mob, advantage the Muslim Brotherhood, prepare the way for the Creation of the Greater Caliphate, weaken Israel and encourage those who would attack her, run interference to give Iran time to perfect their nuclear weapons, ... That's a start on the Obama foreign policy.

i disagree a little with your wording. they’re not testing obama, they know he hates israel. if anything, they’re testing how far the american people will allow them to go.
Most of the problems cited stem from the naive and sophmoric foreign policies of the 0bama - klinton State Dept.
For A REAL NIGHTMARE, they should ask the families of the four men 0bama watched die at Benghazi while he didn't raise a finger to help because he was more concerned with his fund raising trip to Vegas.
The forces of 7th Century darkness know they have a friend in Osama Obama.He,too,has been carrying out his own little “jihad” over the last 20+ years.
Hussein’s foreign policy is to be flexible with the Russians and to give aid and comfort to Jihadists.
Our foreign policy is obvious...Appeasement to our enemies, alienation of our allies, and deception for those in the US.
“Obama’s Wet Dream” is more like it.
What will he suffer? Nothing.
What will he gain? Everything he and his ilk have always wanted.
It might be a nightmare if he was truly an American. He’s not.
Obama and his buddies are making money off of war in the Middle East.
Read the three part story on The Chicago Connection at chicagopaytoplay.com. Read Aaron Klein’s stories at WND. Look up RESPOSIBILITY TO PROTECT. Look up THE INTERNATIONAL CRISIS GROUP and see who is on their board.....George Soros.
Benghazi is inconvenient to Obama because it’s part of his bigger scheme to make money off the suffering and death in the Middle East.
The difference is that none of those other presidents caused war. They just had to respond. Obama directly fueled instability in eqypt and libya and it is now spilling over to other areas.
