When did the Middle East ever support the US - they sell us oil - but that’s just renting a Moslem’s service - they aren’t loyal to us...partners my a$$
There is one thing that will cause Obama to bomb Iran’s Nuclear Facilities. That “thing” is his poll numbers. If they keep dropping like they have been and Obamacare continues to cause that drop and negatively dominate the news, he will need a major diversion. Don’t forget “Wag the DOG”.
Nah. The new rainbow transgender military is only interested in supporting the first gay President politically at home.
says Kerry.
We will stand by you, unless you are Tunisia, Libya, Egypt or Syria, in which case we will work to overthrow your government.
Cheney is wrong. Obama has been very involved in the region: on the wrong side.
The title of this article should read:
U.S. won’t allow attacks on Mideast partners (Iran, Turkey, Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, HAMAS, Hizbollah, Islamic Jihad, Al-Qaeida, Salafists, etc.)
by any other country like Egypt, Israel, Saudi Arabia, etc. (former allies)...
Bizarrely enough, even lightweight Kerry seems to take these things more seriously than the idiot in the WH. Well, make that ideological, evil idiot.
I think Obama is genuinely working against our interests, but very surprisingly, Kerry is at least trying to preserve some kind of policy. Hillary was obviously too weak and too afraid of Obama to offer even a murmur of dissent - and usually managed to be “indisposed” or “traveling” whenever something happened that might require comment.
We’ll see how long this lasts. Obama doesn’t tolerate any divergence of opinion nor does he like being shown up by underlings.
I feel fortunate that I finished my coffee before I read the headline on this story. My keyboard dodged a bullet, that’s for sure.
We send a traitor to tell other countries we will back them up.
Laughable——and they all know it.
“Trust us. We will back you just as strongly as we did South Viet Nam in ‘75”.
And if you believe him on that then he's got a bridge he'd like to sell you.
So does that mean that if Israel strikes Iran, the US will strike Israel?
Israel needs to operate as if this is not true.
The middle east has been a stalwart ally for America to lean on in all it’s misadventures. This must be true as we continue to allow our feckless government to shovel billions of dollars into each country.
We have lost this world strategy game and need to pull ALL troops, close all posts and bring our dwindling assets home. Further we need to impeach this moronic ,socialist, Muslim, cupcake (yes, Barry does have an identity problem) and fully realize that he is the biggest mistake ever made in American history.
We are in a terrible pickle.
I’m sure this has the Iranians shaking in their boots.

He specifically mentioned Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Jordan and Egypt as nations, alongside unspecified “others,” that the U.S. will defend. Those others likely would include Israel, the strongest U.S. ally in the region.
Ah, he didn’t mention them on purpose. Bammy will feed them to the wolves I have no doubt.
Yeah, and you can keep your health insurance too... the guy in prison who caused Benghazi - the film maker - we nipped that in the bud... and you can keep your doctor - our word is good - that's what I told the Cambodians...after we shot unarmed children in Vietnam.
I'm conflicted. On the one hand, I wouldn't shed a tear for those countries. On the other hand, I know it will end up wasting the lives of our brave military men and women.
Obama’s mismanagement of Syria ought to prove how dependable he is.
