Obama vs. Israel: Priority No. 1? Stop Israel. - The Washington Post


Our President certainly makes it hard to figure out whose side the US is on. Is the US with our democratic ally who is threatened by an adversary who is acquiring nuclear weapons, who denies the Holocaust, and who threatens to wipe Israel off the map? Or is the US assisting Israel’s adversary who has been waging an undeclared war against us for the last 30 years that we fail to recognize and call it for what it is?

Our President's policies make it hard to figure out what his priorities are and whose side we are on. Charles Krauthammer helps figure it out.

"So what is Obama’s real objective? ‘We’re trying to make the decision to attack as hard as possible for Israel,’ an administration official told The Post in the most revealing White House admission since ‘leading from behind.’

Revealing and shocking. The world’s greatest exporter of terror (according to the State Department), the systematic killer of Americans in Iraq and Afghanistan, the self-declared enemy that invented ‘Death to America Day’ is approaching nuclear capability — and the focus of U.S. policy is to prevent a democratic ally threatened with annihilation from preempting the threat?" 

I cannot imagine the pressure on the leaders of Israel. But I know that I tend to take people at their word and the words of the Iranian regime leave no doubt to their intent. Should they carry out those threats, I also have no doubt who is next on their list to be wiped off the face of the earth.
