Israel Will Hold The Line...


While Obama "fiddles".
Ben Shapiro (TH Daily)...There are reports out of Washington, D.C., this week that the Obama administration is in a regular tizzy about the possibility that Israel will strike Iran's nuclear facilities without U.S. help or permission. According to a senior State Department official, the Obama administration is so worried that Israel will go it alone that they are finally placing pressure on China and Russia to sanction Iran more strictly...

 The Arab Spring, it turns out, wasn't a nice, happy democratic socialist revolution. It was an Islamist revolution of the worst sort, toppling brutal dictators with whom we could deal with in favor of populist Islamist movements that we cannot.

And Obama stands behind all of it. It started with his invitation to members of the Muslim Brotherhood -- the supposedly moderate group that stands behind Hamas, Hezbollah, al-Qaida and virtually every other terrorist entity in the region -- to attend his speech in Cairo in 2009. 

His words in Cairo emboldened Islamists; his appeasement rhetoric suggested that the conflict between Western civilization and radical Islam is a mere misunderstanding, and just a few days before that, his statements calling America "one of the largest Muslim countries in the world," told Islamists that they had nothing to fear from the United States....

Perhaps if Obama had shown half as much worry about the turn of the Middle East towards Islamism that he now shows towards an attack on Islamist nuclear facilities, we wouldn't be in this situation. Israel wouldn't stand alone. But it does, and it will, against all odds. May the Hitlerian Arab Spring end the same way as Hitler's empire did: in utter failure, buried beneath its own ashes...Read...From Arab spring to Springtime for Hitler
