AUGUST 8, 2014 Obama’s Treachery and Republican Silence When will they stop pretending this is a normal presidency? By David Horowitz
Barack Obama deliberately set out to lose the war in Iraq, and he did. He defied the advice of his joint chiefs of staff to secure America’s formidable military presence and keep 20,000 troops in country, and left Iraq to its own devices and the tender mercies of Iran. In doing so, he betrayed every American and Iraqi who gave his life to create a free Iraq and keep it out of the clutches of the terrorists.
Iraq is now a war zone dominated by the terrorist forces of the Islamic State, whose rise Obama’s policies fostered. Both his secretaries of state praised the animal Bashar Assad as a “reformer” and a man of “peace,” helping him to thwart his domestic opposition. The Islamic State was born out of the Syrian chaos that ensued.
Far worse was Obama’s open support for America’s mortal enemy, the Muslim Brotherhood, spawner of al-Qaeda and Hamas. During the “Arab Spring,” Obama essentially put America’s weight behind the legitimization of this murderous organization that had been outlawed for 40 years for its assassinations and conspiracies against the Egyptian regime. Secretary of State Clinton gave totally unfounded assurances to the world that the Brotherhood was ready to become part of the democratic process and give up its 90-year holy war against infidels, Jews in particular but also — and explicitly — America. During the Brotherhood’s brief tenure as the government in Egypt Obama gave these genocidal zealots more than a billion dollars in American aid and F-16 fighter-bombers that could easily reach Israel’s major population centers, which for 60 years the Brotherhood had sworn to destroy.

well said - as good an analysis as I’ve seen
we have an enemy in our midst
Just preparing the way for his master to arrive with a false peace.
And it is growing constantly.
Obama was and is America’s Trojan Horse for all of our enemies.
Enemies.
Obama is bad, but the cowardly Republican “leaders” who enable him are no better.
Where’s the Republican leadership?
What Obama & Hillary did by backing the Muslim Brotherhood is not talked enough about. Absolute evil.
Time for the RNC to keep running ads or Priebus must have his ass kicked.
We should have never have gone in in the first instance. The betrayal has been running for about 13 years now. ODimwit screwed it but Bush was equally bad. Had we never gone in, we would have never lost a single American and there would have been balance in the region. It would have been a balance of tyrants to be sure, but a balance nonetheless.
There is plenty of betrayal to go around.
When push comes to shove Obama said he’d side with the Muzzies. No surprises. And the Kongress supports it so they are ‘accessories after the fact’.
What about the thousands of former and present members of the military who are sworn to preserve and protect the Constitution from all enemies,both foreign and domestic?
Where’s the Republican leadership?
They must be under threat of death. They can make noises but they don’t dare cross the line.
And to think that so many GOPe congress critters were re-elected.
Sigh.
Even on ‘conservative leaning’ media outlets the people still talk about Obama cudda’,shudda’ done it this way or that and he would have solved the problem. They seem unwilling to admit even to themselves I guess that what he is doing is what he has planned to do all along.His goal has always been to take the USA down to a level so low that we have no influence anywhere in the world and domestically make us so subservient to big government that we are indistinguishable from Russia or France or Cuba or Venezuela. IOW we cannot solve a problem if we refuse to admit one exists. From freedom to tyranny in one generation is not only possible it appears to be very likely.
We have a child who is 'our leader' , playing checkers
..while the rest of the world is playing chess
Obviously , he is in a sandbox which is over his head
and next in line is the countries most comic clown shooting 12 gague shotguns off the back veranda !
The DUMBOCRATS should be proud !... TWICE !!
Sad and amazing that with all the issues Prince Obie advocates for most reporters still aren’t the least bit curious about just who this man really is...
True, yet stupid Pubbie voters keep re-electing them. Every time we point the finger of blame, we point three back at ourselves.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
The GOP prostration to the treachery of Obama is as much a treachery on its own; it is by default nothing less than complicity.
