I think the violence that broke out this weekend on the Syria–Israel border is a clear indication that the revolutions in the Arab world are engendering more rather than less radicalism and instability in the region. I think they show that another Arab war against Israel is more likely now than at any time in the last 25 years, as Egypt, Syria and other countries reassess their options and come to the conclusion that war and other aggression against Israel serve their interests today in a way they didn’t in the past.
I think Israel’s response was weak and that Defense Minister Ehud Barak, who consistently fails to understand the nature of the gathering threats, should be fired.
And I think the Obama administration, which has thrown Israel under the bus in its efforts to appease the likes of the Muslim Brotherhood, Syria’s Assad, the Palestinians, and the nuclear-bomb-building Iranian ayatollahs, has contributed massively to the precarious destabilization of the region.
I’ve been rather absent recently. Did the Lollipop (Obambi and Company) Guild have anything at all negative to say about the attacks on Israel? Were they specific about what they would do if it continued?
I doubt very seriously that both these questions receive an affirmative response.
Obama leaves chaos in his wake.
O simply regretted the violence.
Well he should be pleased then, because from what I’ve heard, not many of these perps are going to cause more of it. ;^)
If you’d like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

.....And watch Israel hand their butts once again! The Arabs still not learned anything after all these years.
Yes, but we had a friend in Washington (Nixon) who re-supplied us.
We always have G-d. On Him we depend. But I don’t pretend to understand Him and what He will permit to occur.
