One almost loses faith
in the American system of checks and balances. How is it possible that these
dangerous policies of the US president of supporting
the Muslim Brotherhood, enforcing
Newspeak in inventing terms like violent extremism to describe Islamic
jihadi terror and most dangerous of all, the appeasement of Iran,
has had such apathetic response among the American public?
US House Minority Leader
Pelosi
was unsure if Democrats will attend Netanyahu’s speech to Congress! Here
was the last chance that the American Congress and people hear about the
magnitude of the Iranian nuclear threat from an Israeli PM who knows about it
not only empirically, since Israel is under constant attack from Hezbollah and
Hamas, but also theoretically since Netanyahu was briefed
by Bernard Lewis on Iran a few years ago. But Pelosi does not seem to care.
.
Americans do not seem
to realize that Netanyahu will not permit a nuclear Iran regardless of what
President Obama says. Netanyahu knows that the very existence of Israel is at
stake and by this point Obama’s serial blunders in foreign policy, especially
in the Middle East, have rendered his opinion totally worthless. Even
previously staunch supporters like Alan
Dershowitz and Dennis Ross have finally realized that something is very
wrong. But what is really tragic is that the Democrats in Congress are still
unclear whether they understand the gravity of the moment. In the most
dangerous time since the Cuban Missile Crisis they are playing party politics.
If anybody thinks that
this is an exaggeration – I urge you to take the Kerry
Quiz and find out how much you really understand about the Middle East.
