Mark Steyn, columnist and author of “The Undocumented Mark Steyn,” argued that “everybody” in the Middle East “despises” President Obama on Thursday’s “Hugh Hewitt Show.”
“Everybody in that region despises this president. And I don’t use that word lightly, I mean it. Rubio touched on some of the phone calls that Obama placed to that Muslim Brotherhood guy and all the rest of it. General Sisi, whose taken over in Egypt, despises this president. The House of Saud despised this president. King Abdullah in Jordan despises this president. What remains of the Libyan government despises — that had to flee, that had to flee the capital, despises this president. And now, the very last remaining little sliver of turf in the region, Obama is doing his best to ensure total regional contempt from Morocco, all the way over to Pakistan, absolute contempt for this president” he said.

turnabout ...is fair play..and only natural
Despise...? That’s a bit mild!
Well I guess other than the 47% of Americans, this makes it unanimous.
Delete “in the middle east”.
Everybody in Middle America despises him too.
Oh hell yeah, LOL!
I notice that Tehran is not mentioned.
Despise? Yeah, after they stop laughing at him.
He may be a useful tool, but no one respects a traitor.
Has anyone posted the timeline of Obama’s Anti-Israel Hatred, from Breitbart? I am wondering because it is an excellent factual history of the intentional degradation the relationship. I don’t want to post it because someone always takes offense when I post anything.
Who is "Rubio"? And why was his name brought in?
"General Sisi, whose taken over in Egypt, despises this president. "
This wasn't written very well - was that supposed to be "who has taken over in Egypt"?
I didn’t mean to post this to you - it was meant to go to “All”. Sorry.
Rubio is mentioned because few people are actually talking about the details of Obama’s actions, working toward a caliphate.
The Ben Steyn outline details the facts surrounding why the Obama administration referred to Netanyahu as chicken shit. They were laughing and taunting him for not having the guts to go up against Obama and take out Iran. They laughed saying he was chickenshit and it is now too late.
Did you ever hear that before?
Join the Club, we've got jackets.
It works perfectly for them to claim to want the United States to do whatever it is they have helped rabble rouse their own low-info crowd into demanding we do. Disarm, stay uninvolved, be poor, stop consuming...BUT, none of them have ever wanted us to actually do any of it. They know they need a strong and prosperous America and they need to blame the prosperity and strength for all their ails.
Well, now we have a sufficiently stupid enough population too. And they all are clamoring for the same misguided and suicidal policies. We are actually doing it ALL.
And unfortunately not enough in America. Sad, and dangerous.
I read an article in, I think it was Foreign Policy Magazine (some professional journal) on Putin’s intentions. What the article said is that Putin is moving toward creating a geo-political economic zone, similar to the European Union, as part of the Third Way New World Order.
The article explained that Putin is following Saulxinsky’s advice on picking a target, and the US and western capitalism is the natural choice, as it is for the rest of world. No one likes a winner who stays around too long.
Putin is using the same organizing techniques that Obama and the Democrats have used, separating the country in various factions and championing their major concerns as if he is their savior. In Russia, Putin used a religious revival, much the same as the Muslim Brotherhood did in the thirties. For other regions of Eastern Europe it will have to be something else, perhaps hatred of the Jews and the US capitalism.
