Every since the end of World War 2, the United States has been hamstrung in its wars. There is a good reason. World War 2 was a “good war” because the American Left wanted the Soviet Union to survive the fight against Nazi Germany. The American Left was just peachy with the Nazi-Soviet Nonaggression Pact after the carve-up of Poland that lasted little over a year. While things were lovey-dovey with the Nazis, the American Left did everything it could to sabotage the shipment of war materials to England, the only country that continued to fight alone against Germany.

After Germany invaded the Soviet Union, the American Left did a complete 180 degree turn and thumped the tub for MORE aid to Russia and the opening of a Second Front to take the pressure off the Russians.

After the end of WW2, the American Left did everything in its power to blunt American interests around the world and to advance those of the Soviet Union. The American Left sabotaged America's Wars and covertly and actively gave aid and comfort to America's enemies.

The rise of militant Islam in Iran was facilitated by Leftist POTUS Jimmy Carter. Carter, who never met a Leftie dictator he didn't like, actively presided over the fall of Iran to militant Islam, of Rhodesia to the Marxist Robert Mugabe, and Nicaragua to the Marxist Daniel Ortega. Carter has continued his support for Leftist dictators and Islamists ever since and remains a useful idiot for Leftist causes to this day.

Bill Clinton/Hillary Clinton were other Leftist enablers, although Clinton (Bill) was a much less dedicated troublemaker. Bill was corrupt and more about personal sexual gratification than revolution. For Hillary, Leftist revolutionary zeal has mellowed somewhat, but still burns within her. As Secretary of State under the current Marxist POTUS, Obama, Hillary continues to do her Leftist damage to America's interests under the radar and without public scrutiny.

The major problem with American foreign policy has been that America still has not awoken to the threat of Islam as a POLITICAL-JUDICIAL-RELIGIOUS system of tyranny over men's minds. Instead, our political leadership, aided and abetted by Leftis sycophants within our halls of power, talk about Islam as some kind of benign religious experience. It is not and it never has been; Islam has been a malignant cancer upon the world for 1,400 years.

The major job for the next POTUS will be to reshape how we deal with Islam, both internally and externally. Internally, America has to halt and expunge the cancer of Sharia Law. Muslim immigration to the United States must stop and those who will not support America first, must be sent back to the Third World Muslim dumps from which they came. We must start taking a very hard line against Muslim nations and the fastest way to destroy militant Islam is to cut off its one cash cow — ENERGY. The United States has more energy resources than Saudi Arabia, Iraq, and China combined. Yet, we continue to grant Saudi Arabia enormous power over the United States because Americans are dominated by the Leftist kook environmentalists. These loonies will not allow America to become energy self-sufficient (and probably an EXPORTER of energy for the world). That's because Leftists loathe the United States and that's why they have made common cause with the Islamist murderers who want to destroy this country.

Excellent post. While I don't believe that the ‘left’ is monolithic in its loathing of traditional American principles, as a whole the left has been co-opted by those who fit the description you delineate. The biggest threat to this nation, and the west, is not Islam. The biggest threat is the left, without question.

...good words, sir....

....when the US adopts "drill baby drill" will be the day when the fall of islam begins.

When the support of the terrorists by oil money ends....these people will either have to go back to living in the dirt like they have for a thousand years..

..or start legitimate businesses and live like civilized humans.

I wish you could be secretary of state if not president as your commentary was on the mark regarding the communists, socialists, ecoleftists and their fellow travelers and useful idiots. Never underestimate how bad a “deal” we had from Postsdam. Socialist Truman guided by a State Department chock full of lefties, yes McCarthy was right on that one, Altee who followed Churchill after the Lefties took over England, and Stalin, one of the worse butchers on the planet ever, set the tone for what much of what has happened in the post WW2 era.

I’ll never forget a story from my uncle, a navy flier stationed in Korea as the war in the pacific ended. He related unarmed planes from his unit were fired upon by our Russian allies over Manchuria. There was no outcry or even any attempt at retribution. No, the tone was already set by Postsdam, that is, the Russians were our allies (allies who never committed to an Eastern War till the war with Japan was not in doubt so they raided and took over some of Japan’s northern Islands as a war spoils.)
