Obama's Arab Spring

Today, Obama gave a speech presenting the administration's shifting Mideast policy.  Preceding the speech, Glenn Beck nails the president's 'Arab Spring' concept and pegs what this speech is really about...

Here's Parts 2 and 3 if interested in seeing the rest of the program, but I think you can see where this is going in the first clip.

Ben Stein also weighed in earlier this weekend to comment on the fraud of Obama's Arab Spring:

"There is a gigantic regional coup by Iran taking place. We are doing very little, if anything, to stop it...You can call it “Arab Spring” if you want. But with Iran now the regional superpower, it is a lot more like an extremely bleak Mideast winter."



Folks, the 'Arab Spring' is an uprising of Arab nations against Israel that's being aided and abetted by one Barack Hussein Obama.  The point is once again made in his latest speech that our current president sides with the Palestinians over the sovereign nation of Israel.  What's next?  The American Southwest to Mexico?  Oh, wait...

Following Obama's speech, the Jerusalem Post exploded with comments and rebuttals:

Knesset members on the Right expressed outrage on Thursday night at US President Barack Obama's call for the creation of a Palestinian state based on the 1967 lines with mutually agreed swaps in an exchange of territory for security.  They called upon Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu to reject Obama's plan when he meets with him on Friday in Washington.

As he should!  I seem to recall some relevant advice from some pretty important men throughout history...

"Property must be secured, or liberty cannot exist." ~ John Adams

"They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." ~ Benjamin Franklin

And Prime Minister Netanyahu has appropriately responded to Obama's radical new policy:

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu said on Thursday Israel would object to any withdrawal to "indefensible" borders, adding he expected Washington to allow it to keep major settlement blocs in any peace deal.  In a statement after President Barack Obama's speech outlining Middle East strategy, Netanyahu said before heading to Washington that "the viability of a Palestinian state cannot come at the expense of Israel's existence".

Right on!  This is the toughness and consistency that I'd expect from a REAL leader, whose previous statements reflect the same vigilance...

"First of all, Arafat is wrong. Jerusalem is Israel's capital, will never be divided, and will remain the capital of the State of Israel, the capital of the Jewish people, for ever and ever."

"So I think we should stay focused on the real problem in the Middle East. It's not Israel. It's these dictatorships that are developing nuclear weapons with the specific goal of wiping Israel away."

"We don't point a pistol at our own forehead. That is not the way to conduct negotiations."

"I think that a strong Israel is the only Israel that will bring the Arabs to the peace table."
