“He will take credit for this if it turns out good. If not it will be Bush’s fault.”

It worked for us a couple centuries ago. Usually, though, it is a step down. I think of Iran, South Africa, etc.

...when Ezekiel 39 unfolds.
Interestingly, for many, many centuries people had a hard time with Ezekiel 39 because there was no “Israel”. It was as relevant as Canaan.
Then came 1948, and everything changed.
What is the makeup of the population there. Are there enough, er, “committed Muslims” to pull the whole thing down into a jihadic misery?

If the Muslim Brotherhood ends up in charge of Egypt it’s on your head, Zero.
He should be saying this in his native Arabic. It would have more impact, and the American press wouldn't have to cover it to have people like us rip to shreds as the Alinsky/Mahdi cipher that it is.
Barry’s speech started on the car radio and about halfway through I broke into a spontaneous chorus of “Kumbaya.”
America’s greatest sin. The greatest crime against humanity and the beginning of many genocides.
He has already created 2 years of MB plans which are in the works today..the mid east and Islam have been seeded for consolidation .... and there are another two years in front of us...I doubt we can make it unscathed.

very small pond, thinking he understands the whole ocean”
More like a turd in the punchbowl.
