We witnessed leadership from the FRONT rather than from behind.
Today, at the United Nations, we saw Netanyahu.
The man I have referred to as the world’s last great statesman took the podium and gave the world a stern talking to, a lesson in history and, the man with whom Obama has refused to meet with face to face did what Obama has steadfastly refused to do.
HE drew a clear red line against the development of Iran’s nuclear weapons.
Over the last several days, Iranian leaders have threatened a preemptive strike against Israel if they feel threatened BY Israel and Obama, not wanting an armed conflict before the November election has strongly told Israel to wait regarding any attack.
Obama believes the absurd, that there is “Time and space for diplomacy” to work against Iran.
Netanyahu has asked the intelligent questions.
“Wait? Wait for what? Wait until when?”
Questions Obama refuses to answer.
In a letter to the People of Israel yesterday, Prime Minister Netanyahu said:
Ladies and gentlemen, friends, allies, despots and dictators,
I am not politically correct. I am, instead, politically DI-rect. What I have come here to tell you today, will not sit well with some of you.
I don’t care.
There are, no doubt, some who would LIKE to say what I’m GOING to say but, decorum halts them.
Too bad.
I am here to tell you the truth and if the truth offends you, you need offending.
The world is on fire and do you want to know why? It’s because there are far, FAR too few in this assembly who purport to promote freedom who do quite the opposite.
Freedom is gained through and upheld by strength and not attained as the result of terrorist actions or appeasement TO terrorists.. Terrorism is the tool of cowards and curs and those who employ it mistake fear for respect.
In Syria, Assad, a murderous scourge against humanity, is killing his own people by the tens of thousands. Too much a coward to allow his own people to live in freedom and too damned stupid to recognize the recent lessons of history.
Mubarak is ill and imprisoned.
Saddam was pulled from a hole in the ground, tried and met his end dangling from a rope.
He was lucky when compared to Gaddafi whose sodomized remains were displayed in a grocery store meat cooler for the world to see.
The time of year when the world’s despots gather at the den of thieves and have their say while the world watches.
Wednesday, on Yom Kippur, Ahmadinejad will address the Assembly.
At a time when, supposedly, a movie that nobody has seen has inflamed those who ascribe to an ideology, an organization dedicated to the protection of political correctness over the protection of freedom is allowing a worm who has called for Israel to be wiped from the map will allow that worm to verbally assault Israel on Israel’s most holy day.
Absurdity breeds absurdity and within the United Nations, it’s a matter of inbreeding.
When the cur of the Middle East rises to the pulpit, the delegation from Israel will stand and leave. So too will the U.S. delegation.
There are two different reasons for letting their feet speak volumes.
For Israel…It’s a statement of objection not only to the cur but to the organization which owns the pulpit.
For our delegation, under the Obama administration, it’s to save face on the stage.
Among the world’s other wincing excuses for leadership, Obama was there.
It’s time to connect the dots and look at the bigger picture.
This is stunningly despicable.
Last week, in The National Patriot, I took on Obama’s comments in his appearance with Letterman in an article titled, “A Potato Will NOT Get Us All Killed.”
I focused on a single comment which I found both appalling and a complete failure of foreign policy.
“The message we have to send to the Muslim world is we expect you to work with us to keep our people safe.”
We had just discovered, in a Fox New exclusive, that a former GITMO detainee, Abu Sufian Ibrahim Ahmed Hamuda bin Qumu, may well have been the mastermind of the Benghazi terrorist attack which took the lives of 4 Americans at our Consulate.
NOW…we learn that the Obama administration is planning on releasing 55 GITMO detainees.
Why?
Because it worked so well when we released Abu Sufian Ibrahim Ahmed Hamuda bin Qumu back in 2007???
So far, 51 NATO troops, including Americans, have been killed by those we’ve been “training” to take over “security” in Afghanistan so…why NOT release MORE captured terrorists, like Abu Sufian Ibrahim Ahmed Hamuda bin Qumu, and hope for the best??
Maybe we’ve become SO good at KILLING terrorists in the field that they’re running low and it’s now up to US to restock their supply???
As insane as the idea of releasing 55 GITMO terrorists, ONE OF WHICH IS BIN LADEN’S BODY GUARD, just 2 weeks AFTER one released in 2007 masterminded the attack in Benghazi, this is NOT the truly despicable part of our connect the dots moment.
It’s a false statement and I suspect even those who employ it, know it.
It’s not about policing, it’s about leading and the two are far different things. Now, perhaps more than ever before, the world needs a leader.
Obama doesn’t think so and neither do his followers.
Ron Paul doesn’t think so either and, of course, neither do HIS followers.
They are wrong. Dead wrong. And if we’re not careful, we’ll all be dead because they’re wrong.
Since the beginning of this nation, we have been that leader. In the war of independence, we defeated the world’s most powerful military force. Was it a fluke? Clearly, they thought so across the pond and so, they tested us again in the war of 1812.
We defeated them again.
Some thought that the war between the states would be our end. It wasn’t. In fact, it made us stronger.
Yes, there have been times when we stumbled…Korea…we stumbled. Vietnam? Yes, we stumbled.
Those were wars, on the world stage, battles.
While stumbling in the battles, on the world stage, we were still the leaders. The cold war loomed through both those conflicts and those who thought maybe we had lost our resolve found that, under Kennedy, we had certainly not.
While Nixon stumbled at home, on the world stage, he opened doors. Because we were the world’s strength, China and the Soviet Union, the world’s other two powers, began at least, to talk to us.
Reagan, through firm and unwavering resolve, won the cold war without firing a shot.
Undermining government policies, inhibiting successful acts designed to improve quality of life for its citizens is what the political opposition does in a democracy. But when these destructive actions are reinforced and amplified by the media, when they work against the national agenda, when the majority of the citizens swear by the false concepts the media is shoving down our throats, the outcomes may turn calamitous.
This is the situation we are in at the moment. Someone needs to set off the alarm bells and call the bluff, switch direction, and bring about a turnaround.
The Palestinian Authority’s recent announcement that it would seek UN recognition as an independent state dominated the news and the political debate in the United States last week, though in truth it should mean very little to us. Only a political class harboring the illusion it can run the world obsesses over the aspirations of a tiny population on a tiny piece of land thousands of miles away. Remember, the UN initiated this persistent conflict with its 1947 Partition Plan.
Unfortunately the debate is dominated by those who either support the Israeli side in the conflict, or those who support the Palestinian desire for statehood. We rarely seem to hear the view of those who support the US side and US interests. I am on that side. I believe that we can no longer police the world. We can no longer bribe the Israelis and Palestinians to continue an endless “peace process” that goes nowhere. It is not in our interest to hector the Palestinians or the Israelis, or to “export” democracy to the region but reject it when people vote the “wrong” way.
September 20, 2011….This week, world leaders will gather in New York for the United Nations General Assembly. As usual, the spotlight will be on some of the world’s biggest tyrants who will be given the key speaking positions.
Iranian dictator Mahmoud Ahmadinejad will bring a contingent of 140 Islamic radicals to the Big Apple. Once again, Ahmadinejad will speak to the U.N. General Assembly and receive a warm reception from the vast majority of 193 delegates. In contrast, the Prime Minister of Israel, the only democracy in the Middle East, will receive another rude reception. Certainly, anti-Semitism is a key factor in this rough treatment, but it is also worthwhile to note that two-thirds of the U.N. delegates represent developing counties where democracy is a foreign concept. Sadly, tyrants, despots, radical clerics, and dictators are well represented among the U.N. General Assembly.
Israel’s Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Danny Ayalon explains the historical facts relating to the Israeli Palestinian conflict. The video explains where the terms “West Bank”, “occupied territories” and “67 Borders” originated and how they are incorrectly used and applied. The Truth about Israel
In his latest speech to the American Congress, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu claimed that the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians has never been about the establishment of a Palestinian state. It has always been about the existence of the Jewish state.
Netanyahu added that as long as the Palestinian Arabs continue to perpetuate their fantasy that the Jewish state will cease to exist, there could be no peace between them and Israel.
He was right.
The conflict is not about the pre-1967 borders with mutually agreed territorial swaps. It has always been about the pre-1947 border – when there was none.
Today, we saw leadership.
Ladies and gentlemen, friends, allies, despots and dictators,
It’s that time of year again.
It’s time to connect the dots and look at the bigger picture.
We can’t be policing the whole world.
