Back in 2009, 11 days after becoming the first illegal alien to hold the office of President, Barack Hussein Obama, citizen of Indonesia, was nominated for, and shortly thereafter awarded, the Noble Peace Prize. It appears to have been awarded on the basis of his skin color and his uber-liberal, leftist outlook on life, the universe, and everything. It certainly was not based on anything he had done, or what he would do in the future.
When Obama took power, one of the big issues he ran on was that our actions had made the Islamic world hate us. This has been the position of the radical left, too, that 9/11 was brought upon us by our arrogance and militaristic interference in the affairs of Islamic countries in various parts of the world. Obama, The Messiah, The One, vowed to change that by, it turns out, arrogance and militaristic interference in the affairs of Islamic countries in various parts of the world. The instances are many, but let’s look at a few of the most egregious.
Iraq and Afghanistan have been turned from difficult situations into unmitigated disasters. The mind-bogglingly inept and incompetent handling of both wars by Obama, the State Department, and what Obama has turned into the Department of Surrender, has led to huge and continuing death and casualty counts of both soldiers and civilians. In addition, the governments of both countries have become increasingly hostile towards us, with the likely result that Islamist extremists will end up in control of of them, and all of the deaths of our brave, young heroes will have been in vain.
