When Hezbollah fighters joined the Lebanese army in battling the Sunni Islamist followers of Sheikh Ahmed al-Assir in the Lebanese town of Sidon in June this year, the U.S. backed the army and made no reference to the key role played by Hezbollah fighters in the action. Similarly, the U.S. condemnation of the recent al-Qaeda linked bombing at the Iranian embassy in Beirut did not contain any reference to the presence of Iranian and Hezbollah fighters in Syria.
All this, it must be said, is deeply bizarre.
Taking either side of an Islamist on Islamist war ensures that you are supporting your enemies. On that account, the Half Black Prince can’t lose.
muggles don’t get it………
This is obama, why should we be surprised at any level of insanity that he chooses to follow.
The ill-informed and unintelligent often are surprised. It isn’t hard to grasp the outer
lineaments of Obama’s “character”, though the inner workings remain mercifully obscure.
I have seen much criticism of Vladimir Putin in this blog. However, like it or not, he is the only
powerful figure standing between us and the IslamoFascist hordes.
Apropos of nothing in particular, the classical Greeks and Romans regarded the pathic as the
lowest form of humanity. There were no lies, treachery, or betrayal which he might not
undertake.
Obama really has no foreign policy. He doesn’t know Shiite from Shinola.
Hizb’allah is considered more powerful, militarily, than the Lebanese Army and holds seats as a political party under the same name in the Lebanese Parliament. It exists because of collusion between the Assad Syrian government(supposedly Obama’s enemy) and the Khomeini Iranian regime.
Four-plus years after he was first elected and I still haven’t figured out if Obama is really that stupid or he’s the 21st century version of the Manchurian candidate. Either alternative (and I believe there are no more than those two) is chilling. He makes Jimmy Carter look brilliant.
Calamity followed Jimmy Carter around mist-like with a rank smell of maleficence.
His own misery cloud.
In Obama’s case he perpetuates it, doubles down on mistakes. Than creates even bigger ones he nurtures as a pet. A man full of malice that holds grudges that become almost ritualistic in a frenzy to attack those who he thinks are against him. Worse have shown him for what he truly is . A shadow man of little substance.
He is a sort of Manchurian candidate. My reading is that because he was abandoned by his
father, and his mother had little time for him (too busy chasing interesting men, and her career),
and his probable usage in his teens at the hands of predominantly white well-to-do men,
he is not only a narcissist to a pathological extent but is also a seething cauldron of hatred
for typical middle-class Americans. He will do anything to lay them low.
Also, too, characteristically, he remains respectful of the truly rich. Sometimes
he probably hates so intensely that he can’t think rationally. And he enjoys killing.
Such is the cumulative evidence. Whether he is survivable remains to be seen.
“Whether he is survivable remains to be seen”
Please elaborate. Do you mean to question whether we will survive him or whether he will survive having the power to make his enigmatic incompetence transform him to the most hated man on earth because, considering that he steps on all toes and gores all sacred cows, by the time Obama is out of power he will be the new Osama bin Laden x10 when the truths about him are outed and Barack will not have al-Qaeda behind him, although he may still have the Weather Underground. 8^D
Even the CIA and the Navy Seals hate him and while he is still POTUS, image that.
If he has any sanctuary, I imagine he will live in the dacha in inner Siberia next to Edward Snowden’s.
Where will he hide? Maybe his puppet masters will fake his death and turn him into a martyr.
Question: Was Obama’s father, and family, Sunni or Shia?
What are the administration’s goals? Normalization of relations with Iran requires acceptance of Assad (tick) and Hezbollah (tick) and atomic program (tick). What is the administration hoping for – change? It will also have to sacrifice Iraq (tick) and Afghanistan (about to be tick).
This appears to me to be the result of people who think themselves very clever, deluding themselves. What is the return? A promise to not nuke Israel? Ha! promises are worthless in international affairs.
Malice is not necessary, the Zero may be exactly what he says.
A well indoctrinated progressive, with no productive experience, no ability and absolute confidence in his vision and ability.
Surrounded by other graduates of the University of Self Esteem.
possibly neither, as we don’t actually know who his father is, and that maybe why he keeps his birth certificate secret
Survivable? In the first instance, he may foment such civil discord that secession
and civil war will ensue.
In the second instance, he has weakened the military; and he will continue to weaken
the military until he is no longer president. World leaders “have his number” now.
If he were to continue in power indefinitely (something which is already being
mooted) some party would sooner or later decide to take a chunk from the US.
In the third instance, he seems to be encouraging Muslim immigration, terrorists
preferred. If he succeeds in importing enough the danger is obvious.
Barack Obama Sr. was a member of the Luo tribe, and so far as I have been able to
determine the Luo are Sunni.
Barack Obama Jr.’s other suggested father, Frank Marshall Davis, was an American
black; hence detribalised; and grew up before any significant number of American
blacks had become Muslim. Davis’s belief system was strongly Communist.
And apparently is Shia … Like his pals in Iran.
USA cutting off non-military aid to Syrian rebels after the faction controlled by el’Quida seized a rebel control center. It is dawning on the USA that the rebellion against Assad is nothing more than a Saudi inspired effort to deter growing Iranian influence in the area. If the Saudi’s cannot deflect internal attention by funding radical world Sunni jihad then the old reliable rallying call of confronting Shiites.
IMHO this is why American interests are better served by a more neutral position in the ME. In actual fact a position that even favors Iran makes more sense. Iran has superior geography and in actual fact a more stable government.
Sunni’s are, are in many cases, barbarians. Their activities are replete with atrocities carried out in Allah’s name. 9/11 was the obvious but cutting body parts out and eating them is enough to cast them into the trash can of history.
