The day Israel stood still
On March 17th a
country two thirds the size of Maryland chose to stay with its current leader
Benjamin Netanyahu. With the votes finally tallied Netanyahu and his Likud party
overwhelming beat back Isaac Herzog and the Zionist Union. Ironically America’s
left of the left press had Herzog winning by a considerable margin. American
media misrepresented the will of Israel’s majority with stories fabricated to
negate Netanyahu’s popularity at home. Some media outlets chose to distort exit
polls perhaps in an attempt to discourage late voters as it does in this
country. In the aftermath the Jewish State solidified behind a leader whose
message is consistent: Israel must and will survive regardless of external
forces attempting to undermine the nation.
Reports have circulated
that American tax dollars were spent by the Obama Administration to subvert the
Israeli election. These news reports indicated
people close to Obama established themselves in some manner or form in
Israel with a singular purpose to bring Netanyahu down. Their failure brought a
certain level of consternation to a White House already in disarray over
Netanyahu’s recent presentation before Congress. Not to be out maneuvered by
the Prime Minister our narcissus-in-chief waited 24 hours then revealed his
newest plan to bring Israel to its knees. Obama’s hate for the Jewish State has
no bounds. Under consideration are potential plans to weaken America’s close relationship
with Israel which has lasted seven decades. In the end nothing will change
except the man in the White House.
America’s foreign policy
has been chaotic since Obama took office.
Present negotiations with
Iran, to slow their nuclear weapons development, will only forestall for a
brief period an outcome inevitable under current treaty discussions. Netanyahu
brought this message to Congress. Yet President Obama chided the Prime Minister’s
speech deriding its contents as unhelpful to current exchanges with Iranian
leadership. In reality Obama stopped listening to the very people who have
insight into the Iranian terrorist regime.
President Obama’s
difficulty grasping who the aggressors are and who are America’s friends is
obvious. Worse he believes loosening sanctions against Iran to placate them
will expedite an arms treaty. The road President Obama and Secretary Kerry are
pursuing is disastrous for this country and Israel. Further it may set the
seeds for war because Iran cannot be trusted to follow the tenets of any
negotiated treaty. Instead any solution generated by politicians will guarantee
a nuclear Iran.
President Obama is
considering a beach front property in Hawaii for his post White House days. In
this compound he will be safe from any attack by Iran on mainland USA. He will be
able to sit back and watch the mushroom clouds form. As Barack looks to the
left at Michelle he will note that Netanyahu was right. Iran cannot be trusted.
