University of Tartu guest history lecturer Joseph Enge thinks that the UK's vote to leave the European Union is both reasonable and rational, and that it should not come as a surprise. Even more, the current criticism of the voters shows that they are right to leave.
Yesterday’s vote for the UK to leave the European Union should not come as a surprise. Their decision is reasonable and rational given the unilateral decisions made by President Obama and Chancellor Merkel without consulting or taking account British concerns or interests. Yet, the hue and cry have been falsely and insultingly directed at the intelligence and motivations of the British electorate. In fact, such insults confirm they made the right decision.

I’m still trying to decide who scrood their country more, obama or merkel.
As far as I am concerned, BOTH of them are acolytes of Islam; Obama borders on being an exalted prophet of the disease.
Exactly right.
If Parliament chooses to override the plebiscite and stay in the globalist slavehold, all I can say is that this is how revolutions start. The rulers might want to hearken back to 1776 and recall how that one turned out for them.

No matter how quickly threats arose and situations changed, President Obama has shown a single-minded commitment to create a personal hands-off legacy of his presidency to curtail U.S. application of power overseas no matter how detrimental to American and European security.
Non-action is an action.
That President Obama put his personal concerns for his legacy over the security concerns of his own country and allies is no longer a surprise as his second term comes to an end. What made a bad situation worse in Europe was Chancellor Merkel’s decision to provide safe haven for the millions of refugees from the Middle East without consulting European partners last year.
Yes. And the fate of other English unilateralists, such as Charles I and James II.
I agree that obama and merkel are responsible for the people being fed up... and then here in the United States, obama’s approval rating is too high and clinton’s poll numbers should be in the tank. It’s disgusting that the worst case for a human being is in the White House and has any approval ratings at all.
The people that are on the left side are so corrupt they think corruption is fine to run this country into the ground. But I can’t stand it.. can’t stand to see that many duped individuals.. the media and the elite have theirs and they don’t care.. but the people are ignorant ... it’s pitiful! and it can’t go on like this!!
Donald Trump has to tell his agenda loud and often... the judges, the borders, the terrorists, the economy, jobs, our reputation as a great nation... get that message out! we have to win this election in November... it’s the death of our country if we don’t! Republicans who won’t support Trump has to be taken out of office... they have to know they do not run this country.. just like England, we also are fed up with the elite making decisions for themselves. We have a man who is willing to do all we have been asking for... Go Donald Trump!!
The English came to regret their decision to depose Charles I, so I don’t know that I would invoke that particular comparison.
