One can conceive of an arc that starts in the Ukraine, descends through the Black Sea to Turkey and Iran then follows the coast of the Mediterranean around through Syria, Lebanon, Israel and Egypt. That whole arc is now trembling on its foundations, while president Obama celebrates the supposed best week of his two terms.
Russia preparing to take over all of eastern Ukraine if not the whole country, and ISIS is slowly but surely taking over the Middle east. Meanwhile Obama is busy turning the US into a Marxist state under one huge rainbow.
Sad.
As I have stated before, anything that happens will come to pass before Nov.2016. Obama still believes he’s made the world a better, safer place and the world respects both the USA and his leadership. That won’t change unless he gets bitch slapped by one of the many world leaders that see him as a joke. Even more concerning is his ability to surround himself with like minded thinkers and lap dogs who will be in disbelief when it all unravels, and that will happen quickly. The military’s biggest concern at this time is how to welcome gays and avoid anything that might be deemed as Christian, as well as never using the word Islamic terrorist. I would venture that Obama has never heard of Neville Chamberlain and wouldn’t understand the correlation even if he has. We do know of his disdain for Churchill. When the shite hits the fan it will be too late to undo the damage created by community organizers pretending to be leaders. Our enemies understand that. They don’t see a Churchill anywhere in the Obama inner circle either. It’s a pity that history lessons were dumped in favor of s*x education, no ?
Russia has already replaced America in the ME ..Iran & Syria & Russia will defeat ISIS….The results of Kerry’s talks were decided by Putin…We will re-deploy in Cuba & Mexico.
Greece will pick a winner, or loser.
Putin and buddies must laugh when they sit around the Kremlin and consider politicos in the West. Not just the Ukraine but also the Baltic countries as the Russian “parliament” declared the independence of the Baltics was void due to incorrect independence procedure.
As a Canadian I am evolving into a more isolationist but realizing that is not realistic. The Russians threaten Canadian claims in the north. My question is how many Euros will come to help fight that battle? Yup, none! After two world wars in
Euroland where Canadians fought for very suspect reasons I would not send my sons to fight in Poland to save the EU now.
While Putin and Russia flex their muscles , America and Obama celebrate a week where you can now legally stick your pud anywhere and can deny your x or Y chromosome just by saying so.
I wonder if the Romans ever feared the militarized Goths while they drowned in flower orgies and had allowed their government to be run by a few families. And distributed free bread and entertainment to millions of immigrants from the colonies in the Middle East , Egypt and Syria at the time
Sad thing is, unlike Nero, Obambam can’t even golf that well let along fiddle. Overlay today’s map of the middle east highlighting areas of war, strife, etc and it oddly resembles old maps of the Ottoman Empire.

Peterj,
what makes you think that a law rejecting, anti-constitutional dictator will actually step down in 2016? He has refused to follow the laws so far so why would he then and loose his perks and power?

Meanwhile barrack Elagabalus has a similar background of bathhouses to the roman emperor
But the press won’t say

It’s not just the mum jeans
He would be declaring himself to be a dictator if he does not step down. He would be forced out. The USA may be heading down hill rapidly but are nowhere near the point where they could tolerate that. Obama is missing the most crucial element for dictatorship, the military. He does not have their support.
Takes me back to the Carter administration. “When the cat’s away, the mice will play.” Tito (just kidding)
Charles Krauthhammer weigns in v.v the Iran capitulation:
“The devil is not in the details. It’s in the entire conception of the Iran deal, animated by President Obama’s fantastical belief that he, uniquely, could achieve detente with a fanatical Islamist regime whose foundational purpose is to cleanse the Middle East of the poisonous corruption of American power and influence.”
In pursuit of his desire to make the Islamic Republic into an accepted, normalized “successful regional power,” Obama decided to take over the nuclear negotiations. At the time, Tehran was reeling — the rial plunging, inflation skyrocketing, the economy contracting — under a regime of international sanctions painstakingly constructed over a decade. Then, instead of welcoming Congress’s attempt to tighten sanctions to increase the pressure on the mullahs, Obama began the negotiations by loosening sanctions, injecting billions into the Iranian economy (which began growing again in 2014), and conceding in advance an Iranian right to enrich uranium. It’s been downhill ever since. Desperate for a legacy deal, Obama has played the supplicant, abandoning every red line his administration had declared essential to any acceptable deal.”
What’s left? A surrender document of the kind offered by defeated nations suing for peace. Consider: The strongest military and economic power on earth, backed by the five other major powers, armed with what had been a crushing sanctions regime, is about to sign the worst international agreement in American diplomatic history. How did it come to this? With every concession, Obama and Kerry made clear they were desperate for a deal. And they will get it. Obama will get his “legacy.” Kerry will get his Nobel. And Iran will get the bomb.”

Cause for celebration is based on your individual point of view, if you don’t think Obama wants to solve “the Jewish Problem” you haven’t been paying attention.

Naw, they were mostly LIVs just most North Americans and concerned only with the coming weekend, what freebies the government will hand out, what the latest survivor show is about, and seeing who they can do next.
