The world apology tour rolled on this past week as Barack Hussein Obama
continued his mea culpa for everything the United States has stood for,
and reversing over 30 years of policy by indicating quite strongly that
Iran has the right to pursue its nuclear ambitions. To be precise, he
said Iran has the right to nuclear energy, but since there is no way to
verify that their uranium enrichment program will be used solely for
the peaceful purpose of nuclear power, by implication he has offered to
let them build a bomb capable of wiping Israel off the face of the
earth.
Obama also threw Israel under the bus, by pushing for a
Palestinian state and telling Benjamin Netanyahu to back out of their
settlements.
Did we not see this coming as far back as the
presidential campaign? We know Obama is no friend to Israel. The
Israeli people are also keenly aware of this fact, and although they
continue to use restraint in their rhetoric towards those who would
seek their annihilation, how much longer will it be before it is
incumbent upon them to launch a preemptive strike against their enemies?
This
whole idea of a Muslim outreach should make anyone who remembers that
fateful day in September of 2001 want to vomit. We lost almost 3000 of
our fellow citizens in the horrible attacks of 9/11. And although it is
a radical faction of Islam that was responsible for the vicious murder
of innocent lives, the more moderate Muslim community has failed to
speak out against the hatred and violence. Whether this is due to a
fear of reprisals, or because of a tacit approval of this jihad remains
to be seen.
A puzzling aspect to all of this outreach nonsense is the sudden emergence of Barack Hussein Obama's Muslim roots.
All
during the presidential campaign, Obama and his minions went out of
their way to downplay any connection he had to the Islamic world. Thou
dared not speak his middle name without being properly chastised. The
revelation that he spent time in a madrassa as a youth was dismissed as
irrelevant, immaterial and a distraction from his message.
Now,
however, Obama proudly proclaims his Muslim heritage, and it is just
fine and dandy to use his middle name. Now his past is a convenient
truth as he attempts to coddle those who would seek our destruction.
This cozying up to the Islamic world has dangerous implications to the United States and its citizens.
The
Islamic world does not view Obama's outstretched hand as a sign of
friendship. They view it as weakness, and a radical ideology that
advocates conversion by the sword will utilize this weakness to take
advantage of the opportunity to attack our nation again.
If
Obama believes that by placating these hate-filled idealogues he will
be better able to fulfill his constitutional obligation to protect our
country from enemies both foreign and domestic, he is sadly mistaken.
Frankly, however, it is unlikely that this is the reasoning behind this outreach.
More
likely is the fact that his Islamic past has shaped his world view to
the point that he is actually simpatico with their values and their
stated goals.
And that puts our nation at peril.
