I think that this is a diversion to direct attention from somewhere else. Why would Obama throw one, well, in this case two, allies under the bus. He has done it before but.... One should never forget that when dealing with the Obama regime things are never as they seem to appear. They are never at face value. Every action he takes has an ulterior motive. When analyzing or accessing the acts of the Obama regime, one always needs to ask the question, why. Failure to do so leaves one in the dark.
