Clearing Up the Middle East Situation
Canada Free Press ^ | 03/28/15 | Jim O'Neill

Obama -- who, for reasons unknown, much prefers dealing with the "Death to America" Muslim theocracy in Iraq than with the pro-USA government in Israel. Go figure

Recently my mom complained to me that she is confused by what is happening in the Middle East. I doubt she is alone in this, and for her benefit and those of you who share her confusion I have decided to clear things up. With that in mind, what follows is a brief summation of the situation in the Middle East—hopefully it will answer a number of questions you might have.

To begin with, Iranian (Shi’ite Muslim) military forces are in Iraq because they are fighting the ISIS Sunnis, who Saudi Arabia (Sunni Muslim) is not battling because the Saudi’s can’t very well side with Shi’ites against Sunnis—plus the official state brand of Islam practiced in Saudi Arabia, Wahhabism, is pretty radical in its own right. So instead of fighting ISIS the Saudis are fighting the Iranian-backed Houthis in Yemen (Pronounced “hooties.” Warning: any play on the words “Hooter Hotties” or variations thereof is unequivocally in bad taste).

We may be better off to help them all get the bomb and then step back

We will let you be our on-scene reporter to describe the results, reporting from Tel Aviv. If Tel Aviv is nuked first, please shift your base of reporting to NYC or DC so that we have first hand reporting of the second wave of bombings.

Fascists in the U.S. gov’t and elsewhere have aligned themselves with ISIS and all other Islamic groups determined to obliterate Christianity, Capitalism, and Israel. GLOBAL ISLAMO-FASCISM EXPLAINS EVERYTHING THAT IS HAPPENING IN THE MIDDLE EAST. How ELSE can one explain Team Barry’s alliance with Morsi and the Muslim Brotherhood while calling for the OUSTER of Christian-friendly and Israel-friendly Mubarak of Egypt?

I’m sure I heard Obama chanting that “ “ when he was running for office.

Probably unnecessary. The Sunnis already have the bomb (Pakistan and thence the Saudis) and the Iranians are pretty close to a Shi’ite bomb. All you need to do is sit back with your popcorn (tho gas prices will go back up).
