The Obama Middle East Failures Continue To Grow

floppingaces.net


I’m sure we all remember this:

The White House congratulated Islamist candidate Mohammed Morsi on his election as Egypt’s first freely elected president, calling it a milestone in the country’s transition to democracy.

…Mr. Obama “underscored that the United States will continue to support Egypt’s transition to democracy and stand by the Egyptian people as they fulfill the promise of their revolution,”

And why shouldn’t he? The President of the free world was a major contributor to the “Arab Spring” which helped to install those freedom loving governments like Libya and Egypt.

He helped install a leader who is trying to give himself more power then Hosni Mubarak ever had as a dictator. A leader who aligns himself with the blind sheikh, Omar Abdel-Rahman, the leader of a group responsible for the assassination of Sadat and 9/11.

And even now, as tens of thousands protest against Morsi he still refuses to condemn the power grab:

When asked at a White House briefing if President Obama supports Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi, press secretary Jay Carney said, “The president has an important relationship, well, the United States has a very important relationship with Egypt. The president has worked effectively with President Morsi on key issues, including recently the negotiated ceasefire in Gaza. We are monitoring the situation.”

Carney did not say whether Obama has spoken with Morsi or taken any other action. A White House official later confirmed to POLITICO that the president did stop by a meeting between national security adviser Tom Donilon and Morsi adviser Issam Al-Haddad. The official did not say what they spoke about.

‘We’re gonna stay out of it.’

Like he did in Libya. Like he did in Egypt before his Mursi came into power. Like he is doing in Syria.

And now we have the Muslim Brotherhood in power all over the Middle East. Coming soon is Syria, Tunisia, Bahrain, Jordan and even Kuwait.

Andrew McCarthy, the author of a recently published book that predicted these events, said it best:

The country is aflame again because there is no “Arab Spring.” We are witnessing the rise of Islamic supremacists who regard democracy not as a way of life but as a route to power. Rather than opposing them, Obama is the wind at their backs.

Like Carter before him Obama is the proud owner of a middle east in complete and utter turmoil and can claim credit for doing what no other leader has ever helped accomplish. Hand the keys to the kingdom over to the Muslim Brotherhood.

He must be so proud.
