Great Article on NevilleBama and the Frenchman Kerry

[windriverrange]

9th paragraph pretty much sums up the dumb ass occupant of the WH and his enablers.

From article:

"The deal with Iran follows in the wake of these foreign policy disasters. Among our traditional Sunni allies in the region, it is seen as a betrayal not simply because it advances Iran's nuclear ambitions but also because it encourages Iran's support for the Houthi Shiite militia in Yemen and Iran's adventurism in Iraq."

Ummm, who exactly are these Sunni allies? And why should more American blood and treasure be spent on them?

Traditionally the Sunni allies have been Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Egypt. Looks like President Obama is willing to burn those bridges in order to get a worthless deal with Iran.

Well, this is tricky. Because after taking out Saddam, our strategic middle eastern goal became spreading democracy. And only one of those four countries (Turkey) even semi-resembles a democracy.

And as we've learned the hard way in one of our most stable 'allies' (which happened to be a brutal dictatorship), 'Democracy' to most middle easterners means the opportunity to vote the most Islamic group into power.

We would have looked pretty awful preventing the Egyptian people from casting aside their brutal dictator, right? (even if it's 'burning bridges')

Being knee-deep in that horrible region's internal struggles (while our own middle class is hollowing out) is pretty much the worst thing for our country (unless you're a defense contractor - or hoping to bring on the rapture).

Wonder what our founding fathers would say about our middle eastern situation?

Don't stop your wondering with what they would think about our foreign relations. Also consider what they would think about our trends toward a strong federal government which is overpowering state and local governments and our general slide towards socialism.
