The Islamic Winter

Little did I suspect how prophetic my comments were following the attack on the US Embassy in Cairo

An Egyptian mob stormed the US Embassy in Cairo, tore down the American flag and destroyed it on the anniversary of 9/11 and replaced it with an Islamic flag associated with Muslim terrorists.

I asked then “How is democracy working out for you, America, with the new ‘Arab Spring’?” Today came the tragic news of the murder of the American Ambassador at the US Consulate in Libya, and my question now demands a clear answer from the Obama-Clinton Administration whose foreign policy lies in tatters in the Middle East. For two years I, and other Israeli experts have insisted that the Arab Spring is, in reality, the Islamic Winter. When will the American president stop making abject statements like the one that followed the attack in Cairo, blaming non-Muslims (meaning Christians and Jews) for the widespread Islamic chaos, murder, and mayhem that is the Middle East? We need an America to be the leader of the free world with backbone and with the clear-eyed vision of what is at the heart of the violence that is wracking our region. Instead, we have a wishy-washy, Obama-Clinton Hollywood 'happy end' version of a 'global village' where, in reality, we have a dangerous and deadly neighborhood. America! Get real before you have more deaths. Instead of appeasing your enemies learn to firmly support your allies, like Israel. On 9/11, Obama insulted non-Muslims in answer to the Egyptian Muslim targeting of America. By the way, the response from the US Embassy in Cairo was typical of the thick-headed, appeasing, foreign policy nonsense of the Obama-Clinton Administration. It condemned "the continuing efforts of misguided individuals to hurt the religious feelings of Muslims." Give me a break! Wake up, America, and smell the coffee! Your President and his advisers are leading you down the path of defeat and submission to an unrelenting enemy. On the same day he also refused to meet the head of America's strongest ally in the Middle East, namely Israel's Prime Minister, on the issue of a nuclear Iran. For the sake of Western values, security, and the safety of the free world, the American president must change his dangerous foreign policy flip-flop, or America must change its president.

My opinion was formed from living in Israel, witnessing the horror of terror, reading the misinformation and downright lies perpetrated by the Western media, seen the incompetence of Israeli leaders to project the facts. My website comes from a particularly personal perspective. The articles may be controversial and provocative. For whatever strikes Israel today will surely visit you tomorrow.
