Iran goes nuclear, US says Israel is perfectly “safe”

August 21, 2010 Government, World 4 comments

I knew neither Israel nor the United States would have the prescience and intestinal fortitude to take out Iran’s nuclear facility.

The Hitler of our time, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad–a Holocaust denier and a man who has repeatedly stated he wants to wipe Israel off of the map (tyrants are to be taken at their word)–now possesses nuclear energy. And what is the Obama administration’s message to Israel?

You are perfectly “safe”. You have absolutely nothing to worry about.

And the United Kingdom says that they have “always respected” Iran’s nuclear “right”.

Let there be no doubt: The rest of the World, and now the United States government, under the imam-in-chief Barack Hussein Obama, hates Israel.

As promised, Obama siding with Muslims

June 11, 2010 Government, World No comments

On today’s edition of the Conservative Beacon Podcast with Josh Price:

I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.

–Barack Obama, from his second biography– “Audacity of Hope” (2007)

President Obama is delivering on his promise in his autobiography “Audacity of Hope” “Pomposity of a Dope” to “stand with the Muslims.” He announced earlier in the week that he is sending $400 million in aid (that we can’t afford) to the Palestinians, and today The Weekly Standard is reporting that the Obama administration:

…intends to support an effort next week at the United Nations to set up an independent commission, under UN auspices, to investigate Israel’s behavior in the Gaza flotilla incident.

He is siding with the Palestinians; he is standing with the Muslims.

I’ll refer you to the Bible on guidance on standing with Israel: I will bless those who bless you and I will curse those who curse you.

U.S. to support U.N. resolution to investigate Israel’s behavior in Gaza flotilla incident

June 11, 2010 Government, World No comments

Thanks to one of my great readers, Dave, for tipping me off to this:

THE WEEKLY STANDARD has learned that senior Obama administration officials have been telling foreign governments that the administration intends to support an effort next week at the United Nations to set up an independent commission, under UN auspices, to investigate Israel’s behavior in the Gaza flotilla incident.

While UN Ambassador Susan Rice is reported to have played an important role in pushing for U.S. support of a UN investigation, the decision is, one official stressed, of course the president’s.

Is there any doubt as to which side the Obama administration is on?

Israel was too easy on flotilla

June 5, 2010 Government, World No comments

Ellis Washington


Weakness invites aggression. Any sign of weakness emboldens an aggressor.

–Jeff Kuhner, radio host

I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.

–Barack Obama, from his second biography– “Audacity of Hope” (2007)

That tiny red dot in the center of the map is Israel, which the Bible says God loves with an everlasting love. The green areas are the Muslim states sworn by the Quran to Israel's complete annihilation.

While the Muslim world wants a nuclear-free Middle East, Muslim nations have pledged their lives for a Jewish-free Middle East.

The international catastrophe of a Gaza-bound flotilla of six boats from Turkey was co-sponsored by the Humanitarian Relief Foundation (IHH), a Turkish Hamas front group that wants to overthrow the government of Turkey and establish Shariah law, andthe Muslim Brotherhood, the Egyptian-based grandfather of all modern Muslim terrorist groups.

The Israel Defense Forces boarded the largest vessel after repeatedly warning the ships that they would not be allowed to breach Israel’s naval blockade because Israel suspected that the ships were carrying weapons to terrorist groups like Hamas, the PLO and Hezbollah – weapons used to kill Jewish civilians.

Obviously, self-defense was justified when IDF soldiers first boarded the largest Turkish boat and were savagely beaten by “peace activists” with poles, kicked, shot and even thrown to a lower deck – a 30 foot fall!

In unison came the parade of Horribles: the United Nations, the Muslim states, liberal Democrats and virtually every nation in the world to condemn Israel for its “massacre,” according to Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan, and “inhumane Zionist regime action,” according to Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

After several days of failing to act decisively to defend our hapless ally Israel against the savage aggression of Muslim terrorists disguised as “humanitarians,” President Obama stayed true to his international policy found in his second biography: “I willstand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction,” calling Israel’s attack on the Turkish flotilla “tragic.”

Why is it “tragic” for any nation to zealously defend its borders? I can clearly see the deadly serpent of liberalism slithering throughout this international crisis. Historically speaking, since the 1930s the political left has essentially transformed the Western world into singular socialist states. Now, with the rebirth of militant Islamic terrorism concurrent with the rebirth of Israel in May 1948, this Liberal-Fascist Axis and Liberal-Muslim Axis I wrote about in previous articles is now self-evident and approaching its full supremacy.

The Muslim states and the Arab League of Nations are very shrewd and have been very successful in the propaganda war against Israel and in cultivating positive press for their anti-Semitic madness, turning the entire world against the Jewish state.

In an earlier article, I posited that liberalism is political madness because, despite its laudable beginnings during the Age of Enlightenment, liberalism has since devolved into a totalitarian political cult masquerading as a political philosophy. The corollary of liberalism is Islam, which in my opinion is a totalitarian religious cult masquerading as a hegemonic political philosophy. Because of their fascist tendencies, liberalism and Islam are two sides of the same coin.

Israel’s response to world’s condemnation of flotilla incident: ‘Next time we’ll use more force’

June 1, 2010 Interviews, Podcast, World No comments

Today on The Conservative Beacon Podcast with Josh Price:

  • The world condemns Israel over flotilla incident. Israel’s response? “Next time we’ll use more force.” I absolutely love that attitude. If only we in America had that kind of attitude.

Benjamin Netanyahu: Clarity Unmatched

September 29, 2009 World No comments

“Yesterday, the man who calls the Holocaust a lie spoke from this podium. To those who refused to come here and to those who left this room in protest, I commend you. You stood up for moral clarity and you brought honor to your countries.

But to those who gave this Holocaust-denier a hearing, I say on behalf of my people, the Jewish people, and decent people everywhere: Have you no shame?  Have you no decency?

A mere six decades after the Holocaust, you give legitimacy to a man who denies that the murder of six million Jews took place and pledges to wipe out the Jewish state.

What a disgrace!  What a mockery of the charter of the United Nations!  Perhaps some of you think that this man and his odious regime threaten only the Jews. You’re wrong.

History has shown us time and again that what starts with attacks on the Jews eventually ends up engulfing many others.”

–Benjamin Netanyahu

This above quote is an excerpt from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech before the United Nations on September 24, 2009. The first of four video clips of his speech can be watched here.

Mr. Netanyahu, I applaud your adamant condemnation of the Iranian dictator, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, and your harsh words against those who refuse to denounce him. While our domestic leaders have halfheartedly spoken out against this disgusting man for the atrocities and oppression his government is guilty of, you took an aggressive stance to try and curb his power.

This disgusting man, a fervent Holocaust denier, continuously spews his anti-semetic rhetoric for the world to hear. It seems that most of us have heard it; therefore, what will our leaders do about it? Will they denounce this man who continues to pursue a nuclear program while simutaneously blustering that the state of Israel should be “wiped off the map?”

The Obama Administration, including Robert Gates, doesn’t believe that we should take out Iran’s nuclear facilites ourselves. Due to their cowardice, we are not left with many options. The United States would be able to take care of this problem with minimal time and bloodshed, but somehow our government feels the need to act diplomatically with terrorists. Isn’t that sweet of them?

There have been discussions regarding the likely possibility of an Israeli attack on Iran, which is bound to cause mass chaos. An oil embargo against Iran, designed to economically force the country to comply with sanctions, is also a possibility. The latter should be tried first, but as soon as possible, in order to try avoiding a larger war outside the realm of those two nations (specifically one targeted against Israel by nations other than Iran). This means that the international community must unite together against Iran, otherwise an embargo will be a completely useless and pacifist choice.

SecDef Gates: Diplomacy Best Option for Iran, No Military Option

September 27, 2009 Government, World No comments

That stooge known as our Secretary of Defense, Robert Gates (aka the new John McCain), is out there spewing liberal filth and policy again. This time it’s on Iran:

Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates says that economic sanctions and diplomacy — not military action — for now appears the best way to force Iran to halt its nuclear program.

“The reality is, there is no military option that does anything more than buy time,” Mr. Gates said on CNN’s “State of the Union.” “The only way you end up not having a nuclear-capable Iran is for the Iranian government to decide that their security is diminished by having those weapons, as opposed to strengthened.

“While you don’t take options off the table, I think there’s still room left for diplomacy. ”

Mr. Gates said estimates show that Iran, if left unchecked, could produce nuclear weapons in one to three years.

He says that we don’t want to take any options “off the table,” yet he did just that by openly stating that, in his and Chairman Obama’s opinion, there are no military options. This guy is really something. He’s the definition of a politically expedient, spineless coward.

Really? There are no military targets in Iran? Um, what about the nuclear sites themselves, genius!? Destroying those would do more than simply “buy time.” Oh, and what about the Revolutionary Guard, which just so happens to be conducting war games right now. That’s not a target?

Come on. It’s time for Israel to stop talking about ending the Iranian nuclear threat. Do it already! We here in America obviously aren’t going to do anything about it. Netanyahu clearly and articulately laid out the case against Iran in a speech to the U.N. last week. He needs to start acting like the hawk he ran as.

Either do something, or shut-up about it!

Obama’s ‘Final Solution’ for Israel

September 26, 2009 World No comments

Ellis Washington

Ellis Washington


President Obama gave the worst anti-Israel speech of any American president I can remember.

– John Bolton, Former U.S. ambassador to the U.N.

The speech was good and positive for Israel and for moving the peace process forward.

–Benjamin Netanyahu, prime minister of Israel

How can Bolton and Netanyahu, two seemingly rational, educated and intellectual men hear President Obama’s U.N. speech Wednesday and come to such diametrical opposite conclusions? Both men proudly claim that they are conservatives; both men claim that they believe in a strong, independent, defensible Israel with an indivisible capital at Jerusalem. Answer: One man is a statesman like Sir Winston Churchill; the other is a politician, an appeaser like Neville Chamberlain.

Obama’s speech was delivered with the dispassionate indifference of a man who was handed a speech others wrote for him and loaded into his teleprompter for him to read like a robot, yet the devil is always in the details. Here are some of the highlights of Obama’s U.N. speech:

The time has come to relaunch negotiations – without preconditions – that address the permanent-status issues: security for Israelis and Palestinians; borders, refugees and Jerusalem. …

This paragraph could just as easily been written by Col. Moammar Gadhafi who ranted and raved for 100 minutes before the U.N. assembly and affectionately called President Obama “my brother.” Obama’s U.N. speech could have been written by a whole host of enemies of Israel – Mahmoud Abbas, the president of the Palestinians; Khaled Mashal, the Gaza leader of the terrorist organization Hamas; Nasrallah, the leader of Hezbollah terrorist group occupying Lebanon.

What does Obama mean by “the time has come to relaunch negotiations”? This guy is such a narcissist that he thinks whenever he does something, like trying to broker a peace deal between the Israelis and the Palestinians, that he is the first leader to attempt it. Every U.S. president since Harry Truman in the late 1940s have in one way or another tried and failed to “relaunch” peace in the Middle East.

Obama wants there to be “negotiations without preconditions.” That statement is oxymoronic. All legitimate negotiations between parties done in good faith must set reasonable preconditions. For example, the Palestinians (and all Arab and Muslim nations) must accept the irrevocable fact that Israel is a legitimate nation-state with the right to exist in peace. The Palestinians and the 44 Muslim nations have been fighting against that simple precondition for 65 years.

President Obama further stated:

The goal is clear: two states living side by side in peace and security – a Jewish state of Israel, with true security for all Israelis. …

Can anyone name any place on the planet where a nation has a divided capital and is living in peace and security? Washington, D.C., London, Paris, Moscow, Beijing, Berlin, Riyadh, Tehran, Baghdad? To demand that any of these countries divide their capital in half and give one half to their largest ethnic minority group would be tantamount to that country committing genocide against itself, yet for over 40 years this is the untenable position the world has placed on the backs of the Israelis. Obama further emphasized his anti-sovereignty point when he arrogantly declared in his U.N. speech that “America does not accept the legitimacy of continued Israeli settlements.”

When Obama says, “… and a viable, independent Palestinian state with contiguous territory that ends the occupation that began in 1967 and realizes the potential of the Palestinian people,” he is using perhaps the most evil, anti-Semitic language I’ve ever heard from any American president against Israel. (“Contiguous” = unbroken “territory”; “occupation” = unlawful seizure of land). Obama seems to be demanding that Israel give back the land the Jews won in the 1967 war, a war fought and paid for by the blood of thousands of courageous Israeli soldiers and Jewish civilians. Following Obama’s perverse view of history, what nation on earth could lay legitimate claim to the land they presently have? There is not a place on earth where lands were not taken from another people but by force or war.
