I don’t pretend to understand the reckless actions of our president; but I am sure of the consequences. Israel returning to its 1967 boundaries would leave the nation totally indefensible and the likelihood of war breaking out with its neighbors is pretty well assured. Anyone who thinks that Hamas is going to renounce its pledge to the destruction of Israel is living in LA LA land.
Last night I listened to an elderly Palestinian woman describe with glee how her father and her brothers massacred Jews in what is now Hebron during the first Arab/Israeli War. I also listened to a Muslim cleric calmly explain why it was necessary to totally exterminate the Jews; who he described as vermin. These people are as rabidly anti-Semitic as the worst of the Nazi’s and if they had the power the result would be same. Take them at their own words; these are visceral haters.
Israel relinquished Gaza and what did it get for its troubles? On an almost daily basis now Hamas fires rockets into Israel and now with the assent ion of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt we can expect a free flow of more advanced rockets into Gaza through the Egyptian border. So much for the so called democratic Arab Spring.
Iran’s efforts to build nuclear weapons continue unabated, despite the rhetoric from Washington. Every six months we are treated to a new round of meaningless sanctions which Iran continues to ignore. Fortunately Israel took unilateral action two years ago and quietly bombed the Syrian attempt to construct a nuclear reactor while the State Department cringed in horror. With Pakistan’s fourth nuclear reactor (Plutonium generator) we can be sure that nuclear weapons technology will readily be available in the Middle East and it surely will not lead to peace.
We can stand up for the only democratic country and ally in the Middle East or we can acquess to their destruction. It is quite obvious with the planned “New Peace Flotilla”; the planned UN vote in the fall and Hama’s jumping into bed with Abbas that time is fast approaching. With the appointment of Samantha Powers (http://www.newsrealblog.com/) I expected a shift in Washington’s relations with Israel but it was virtually impossible to forecast so many other negative events would also occur in such a short time. If you care at all for Israel you have to do whatever it takes to get this menace voted out of the White House. A vote for Obama is a vote for the destruction of Israel.
I am not Jewish; but as an American and Veteran I am proud to stand with Israel both as a friend and ally.
I am a fiscally conservative Republican who believes that the United States can only prosper if it brings its own fiscal house in order. I would like to see my grandchildren live in a better world, where individual freedom exists and government does not dictate our every decision.
