Obama’s Global Failure Makes U.S. Much Less Secure

When Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government announced a West Bank housing project during Vice President Joseph Biden’s recent visit -- perhaps accidentally, perhaps not -- the Obama Administration immediately condemned it, privately and publicly. Netanyahu tried to make amends, prompting Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to boast publicly that openly slamming a close American ally had produced positive results, helping to restart Middle East negotiations after 14 months of administration failure in Middle East.

Days later, on the very visit to Moscow where Secretary Clinton crowed about the beneficial effects of kicking friends in their public parts, Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin revealed his reaction. Putin himself (no accident there) announced, right in the middle of a faltering U.S.-led effort to sanction Iran for its nuclear-weapons program, that Moscow would assist Iran in fueling the Russian-built Bushehr nuclear reactor. Not only did Clinton not assault Putin publicly, she accepted firing up Bushehr as within Iran’s “rights,” notwithstanding that, in due course, reprocessed plutonium from Bushehr’s spent fuel will provide Iran with fissile material for nuclear weapons.

Just read the current Debkafile report.... this is sick

Bets on the war starting March 30/31?

US president Barack Obama kept on turning the screw on Israeli minister Binyamin Netanyahu Wednesday, March 24, after their harsh conversation Tuesday: Netanyahu was told bluntly to issue a White House-dictated public pledge to eschew further construction in East Jerusalem, or else face a US presidential notice condemning Israel and holding its government responsible for the failure to restart indirect Israel-Palestinian talks. This standoff was unsolved when Netanyahu flew home that night.

What a weird coincidence. Thanks ventanax5.
