President Obama Must Not Complete a Disastrous Deal With Iran (Blistering Piece)
The Observer ^ | 31 March 15 | The Editors

Posted on 04/01/2015 2:48:08 AM PDT by SkyPilot

With the US on the brink of signing an agreement that will lift the crippling economic sanctions on Iran in exchange for alleged guarantees that Iran will limit its nuclear ambitions to peaceful means, the Observer urges President Obama not to place his personal hunger for a legacy issue ahead of his most solemn duty – protecting America’s national security.

Barack Obama has been compared to British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain , who concluded the ill-fated Munich Pact with Hitler in 1938. But Chamberlain acted out of a sincere belief that he was avoiding a greater evil. Chamberlain was not thinking of his place in history. He was thinking only of the Britain that he loved, a Britain that was all but disarmed, exhausted, and vulnerable. He was dealing with a nation that had been decimated by the Great War, a nation whose “best and brightest” five years earlier had declared in the infamous Oxford Oath that they would not fight for king or country, and a nation that was as materially unprepared for war as Germany was prepared to fight. Chamberlain dealt from a position of weakness, one that Hitler continually exploited in the negotiations, even by changing the time and place to make it more inconvenient for the British leader to attend them.

In sharp contrast, Mr. Obama is acting out of personal aggrandizement. He believes he is replicating President Richard Nixon’s historic opening of China. For Mr. Obama, the Iranian nuclear arms deal is about his place in history. Mr. Obama is dealing from a position of strength that he refuses to use. The sanctions have hurt Iran.

The rest of this editorial is absolutely on target:

- Even Churchill, who filleted Chamberlain with his famous “choice between war and dishonor and now will get both” zinger, understood that Chamberlain was acting in good faith and kept his vanquished predecessor in his War cabinet.

- It is unrealistic to hope that Mr. Obama could emerge as a modern Churchill in this chaotic and dangerous chapter in human history. But even Chamberlain would not have made the disastrous agreement that Mr. Obama seems so eager to conclude.

- Mr. Obama is an amateur who is enthralled with the sound of his own voice and is incapable of coming to grips with the consequences of his actions. He is surrounded by sycophants, second-rate intellectuals, and a media that remains compliant and uncritical in the face of repeated foreign policy disasters.

- But Mr. Obama’s latest petulant act shows that this is not a president motivated by policy but by personal feelings. He sacrificed the security of our close ally and its seven million citizens because he felt slighted.

As devastating and truthful as this editorial piece is, it leaves out two fundamental, and horrifying truths:

1. Barry Hussein Barack Soetoro Obama is a madman, in the same category as Pol Pot, Stalin, and Hitler.

2. Barry Hussein Barack Soetoro Obama is a Muslim, who is taking orders from principalities, powers, and the dark forces of evil; he hates the Jewish people, and he wishes to utterly destroy the nation of Israel.

Obama’s over inflated ego is all that matters in Obama’s pitiful, puny life.

Obama is a narcissistic prick who is going to hand America and Israel on a leash to and envious world. He needs to be no more.

In the end, it doesn’t matter. Congress will never approve of any deal the zero makes.

I never thought in my lifetime I’d see an American president in league with the Nazi goal of eliminating the Jews.

Its time to eliminate odumbo from the controls of this floundering ship called America. He is not only a danger to Israel and the United States, he is a danger to the world. Sooner or later the lid will blow off this boiling pot then all bets are off.
