A Kuwaiti paper reveals another monstrous Obama betrayal.
We thought the Obama administration could stoop no lower when it was revealed that the administration transferred $1.7 billion in untraceable cash to the Islamic Republic as ransom for the release of four Americans hostages they were holding. We were wrong. In its twilight weeks, the administration gave its consent to allow the Iranians to receive 116 metric tons of natural uranium from Russia as compensation for its export of tons of reactor coolant. According to experts familiar with the transaction, the uranium could be enriched to weapons-grade sufficient for the production of at least 10 nuclear bombs.
If you thought that the administrations betrayal of Americas security could go no further, you were wrong. Last month Politico, not known as a bastion of conservatism, published a bombshell 50-page exposé detailing the Obama administrations efforts to delay, hinder and ultimately shut down a highly successful DEA operation codenamed Project Cassandra aimed at tracking and thwarting Hezbollah drug trafficking, arms trafficking and money laundering schemes. As a result, Hezbollah continued to import drugs into the United States, continued to provide anti-U.S. insurgents with deadly EFPs and continued to launder drug money to the tune of billions.
If you thought that was the end of the story, you were wrong. It seems that with each passing day, another layer of deceit and betrayal committed by the Obama administration is uncovered. The latest Obama scandal involves a reported effort by the administration to thwart an Israeli operation to liquidate Iranian general, Qassem Soleimani.
The Kuwaiti newspaper Al-Jarida reported that three years ago, Israel was on the verge of liquidating Soleimani near Damascus but the Obama administration tipped off Teheran of Israels plans. Soleimani is no ordinary general. He is arguably the worlds premier terrorist and is commander of Irans Quds Force, a branch of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, responsible for its overseas mischief-making. Where there is drugs, misery and conflict, its a sure bet that Soleimani and his Quds Force are involved.
The elimination of Soleimani would have been a tremendous coup for the West, on par with or perhaps surpassing the assassination of Imad Mughniyah, chief of Hezbollahs special operations. But the Obama administration, in its sycophantic zeal to curry favor with the mullahs, sabotaged the operation.
Of course, the facts alleged by Al-Jarida are just allegations and have not been confirmed but there is ample reason to believe the veracity of the claim. First, this would not the first time that the Obama administration betrayed an Israeli covert operation.
In 2012, the Obama administration leaked damaging information that inexplicably sought to sabotage a burgeoning strategic alliance between Israel and Azerbaijan. Such an alliance would have enabled Israel to seek alternate bases in close proximity to Iran from which it could conduct military operations including surveillance and rescue missions, refueling and maintenance and even direct military strikes. The embarrassing disclosure shed unwanted light on a covert military alliance that would have greatly enhanced Israels strategic capabilities vis-à-vis the Islamic Republic.
Then again in 2013, Israeli officials bitterly complained to the Obama administration over leaks sourced to administration officials that the Israeli Air Force had struck a military base near the Syrian port city of Latakia. The Israelis termed the leak scandalous and bitterly noted that it was not the first time that administration officials had publicly linked Israel to attacks aimed at preventing arms from falling into the hands of Hezbollah terrorists. At the time, the Israelis were attempting to keep a low profile but the administrations leaks blew everything and Israels involvement could no longer be concealed.
But perhaps the most intriguing validation of the Kuwaiti newspapers allegation emerged from an unlikely source, a remarkable twitter exchange between New York Times columnist Bret Stephens and Obamas former U.S. National Security spokesman, Tommy Vietor.
Stephens asked Obamas National Security Adviser (and former aspiring fiction scribe) Ben Rhodes if there was any validity to the story. Tellingly, the normally talkative Rhodes refused to answer but Vietor chimed in to offer some revealing insight, calling the story unsubstantiated and noting the Obama administration does not condone assassinations.
Stephens hit back noting that the administration utilized SEAL teams and drone strikes to liquidate Americas enemies. Now heres where it gets interesting. Vietor differentiated between Osama bin Laden and Qassem Soleimani referring to the latter as an Iranian political leader, and added that an assassination of QS by Israel would be destabilizing to put it mildly.
So there you have it. A top former Obama administration official, intimately involved with peddling Obamas deleterious Iran policy, believes that Qassam Soleimani is a politician whose elimination from the scene would be destabilizing. Try selling that arrant rubbish to 470,000 dead Syrians.
It was professional courtesy....
If a fair and just world, Obama and his minions would be already in jail.
Obama the first Moslem impostor to become pRes_ _ ent
at the same time was using the DO”J” and FB”I”
to attack the candidate —and then elected President—
of the USA.
Why is no one in jail? (because everyone in Congress
and the corrupt gov’t is let off hook. EVERYONE!!!!)
“transferred $1.7 billion in untraceable cash to the Islamic Republic as ransom for the release of four Americans hostages.”
Those Americans went to that unstable country knowing damn well that they could be held as hostages for ransom for any reason. Back in 1966-70 I would go TDY (military) to Libya and Turkey and we were warned officially if we got into trouble away from the base...WE WERE ON OUR OWN. Enough said...these “so-called” hostages made themselves hostages by violating that country’s convoluted laws...and they knew it!

and a few would have been giivem Texas Neckties, Judge Hean style.
Id guess there is about a 99.99% chance that he did.
And a 0.01% chance it was Valerie Jarrett...
And we executed the “Rosenbergs” as professional spies and traitors. Whoa! They were amateurs compared to Obama.
Of course Husein Obama did! Hy was just being a faithful Muslim,
“....If a fair and just world, Obama and his minions would be already in jail.....”
Disagree. In a fair and just world, Obama and his minions would all be dangling from the end of a rope at high noon on the mall in D.C. in front of the Capitol Building for the entire world to see.
....it doesn’t surprised me. The muzzie POS still works, with stolen billions
,to destroy the US from within, with the protection of the DNC and the
media.
Why is the US government investigating President Trump instead of ex-President Obama? Colluding with Iran is much more serious.
Aid and comfort to the enemy! Traitorobama needs to be tried, convicted, and sentenced to publicly hang.
Not to worry. AG Sessions will get right on it.
Assange should have hacked her computer.
Imagine the American people elected this fraud and traitor TWICE. Sheesh!!!
A clear enemy of the USA was elected president and re-elected president to the adoration from the media. I would bet those “hostages” were arr of a plan by Obama himself so he had an excuse to fund Iran! Truly hard to believe America allowed this to happen...post 9/11 no less.
Well, from Obama’s point of view, it merely is what allies do for one another against their enemies.
Pass it on.
