Why is Obama arming the enemies of freedom? This cat is dangerous and scary. Why the support of Islamic revolutions whose stated goal is sharia and a universal caliphate? What's he doing to protect the oppressed religious minorities in peril? America, time to remove your morphine drip. Wake up!

More tanks for Egypt this year than the entire Marine Corps has...

For the new Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood dominated government, the Obama Administration is ensuring another $1.3 billion annual shipment of state-of-the-art weaponry.

More Perspective...

This year alone, Obama will be sending the Egyptians 200 M1A1 Main Battle Tanks. Egypt already maintains the world's 7th largest tank force, numbering in at 4,000. The active-duty Marine Corps has less than 150 M1A1 Abrams tanks in its inventory at any given time.

Under the new Obama budget, the tank force for The Corps, along with the rest of the U.S. Armed forces are facing a $1,000,000,000,000 cut over the next decade.

Obama has been arming Egypt to the teeth. And last year Obama tried to slip through a questionable arms deal that got little attention -- 125 M1A1 tanks to Egypt, as well as other weapons, equipment, parts, training and logistical support.

Instability in Egypt, where a newly-elected Islamic government teeters over an angry population, isn't enough to stop the U.S. from sending more than 20 F-16 fighter jets, as part of a $1 billion foreign aid package.

The first four jets are to be delivered to Egypt beginning Jan. 22, a source at the naval air base in Fort Worth, where the planes have been undergoing testing, told FoxNews.com. The North African nation

Insane actions, indeed. Nothing happens ... the press and medias do not talk about these actions, but just move on to the next mundane happening of the day. CRAZY! How is this continuing to happen? We are being gutted of money, armed forces, enforcement of our laws and our Constitution,

There have been no questions regarding the Hawaiian prime property costing $38,000,000, or $44 million dollars the President and family are buying. How is it possible for him to have a 4 million home in Chicago? We know he went to college on an grant, he has not been in politics except 2 partial terms as Senator before being elected to his current office. His so called’ book income’ can not be enough for such expenses. To provide a Cover? YES!

God help America, expose the evil occurring behind the scenes. Remove those seeking to destroy America. Turn our attention back to Thee LORD. We ask for forgiveness of our sins, we thank Thee for the blessings and provision of favor bestowed upon America, We praise, honor, and worship Thee LORD in Jesus name, amen.

Arabs are notoriously bad at maintaining high-tech weapons systems.
They'll look impresive in their inventories but won't be very funtional.
