Obama Spin is Absurdity

This week, John Kerry questioned the judgment of Benjamin Netanyahu over his stance on Iran’s nuclear program.  And why? Because of Netanyahu’s 2003 authorization for Israel to be part of the Iraq coalition.  Kerry went on to clarify, “and we all know what happened with that.” Of course Kerry left out the fact that he voted for the Iraq war along with President Obama. So, following John Kerry’s skewed line of reasoning now, does this mean that we should not trust his judgment either?

Injecting more absurdity to the same situation, Obama puppet-mouthpiece, Susan Rice, characterized Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s upcoming address to Congress of as a “destructive” force in long-standing U.S. – Israel relations. Susan Rice is the one who appeared on all the Sunday talk shows in 2012, informing us that the Benghazi terrorist attack was a spontaneous reaction to an amateur video defaming the Prophet Mohammed. And we are supposed to believe her again?

The Kerry-Rice deleterious duo speaks as though Israel’s Prime Minister is coming to the U.S. on a trivial matter. What they are failing to state is that Iran’s goal is the complete destruction of Israel. Somebody in our government had to do something to address the spin being force-fed to us by our President and his sycophants. Thank God that Speaker Boehner stepped up and invited Netanyahu to give Congress a desperately needed dose of reality.

Another news story this week in The Washington Times reported that prominent dissident group, the National Coalition of Resistance of Iran, is claiming that Iran is enriching uranium in a facility known as “Lavizan-3.” This facility has been used for clandestine nuclear program research and development, as well as for enrichment with advanced IR-2m and IR-4 centrifuge machines. The operation’s existence has never been revealed to international officials.

It is at least a mile underground, with an entrance that is able to hide any clues of its existence. This is the group that first disclosed Iran’s covert nuclear program in the early 2000s -- which adds the element of credibility to the increasingly dangerous nuclear equation. They believe that Iran’s underground covert program of nuclear enrichment is aimed solely at the production of a bomb – and ultimately at the destruction of Israel. If the covert nuclear program does indeed exist, why else would Iran be hiding it?

This week, as Iran hung an effigy of President Obama and chanted “Death to America,” Secretary of State Kerry testified as follows:

"Despite ISIL, despite the visible killings that you see and how horrific they are, we are actually living in a period of less daily threat to Americans and to people in the world than normally; less deaths, less violent deaths today, than through the last century."

Maybe Kerry was just not up to speed on the latest data from Director of National Intelligence James Clapper who also testified yesterday on Capitol Hill:

"When the final accounting is done, 2014 will have been the most lethal year for global terrorism in the 45 years such data has been compiled."

Clapper offered statistics challenging the Obama Administration’s claims that the country and the world are safer today.

Why does the Obama Administration continue to spin such absurdity?

Shooting in Denmark – More Terrorism

Two gunmen opened fire at a free speech event in Copenhagen, Denmark. The event was organized by Swedish artist, Lars Vilks, who is considered controversial since his depiction of the Prophet Muhammad as a dog in 2007.  The gunmen used automatic weapons that sprayed at least 30 bullets, killing a 40-year-old man and injuring three police officers. The gunmen are still at large.

Helle Merete Brix, an organizer of the event said, "I clearly consider this as an attack on Lars Vilks.” Helle was ushered away with Vilks by one of the Danish police guards that Vilks gets whenever he is in Denmark.

Francois Zimeray, the French ambassador to Denmark, who was a speaker at the event, told the news media, "They fired on us from the outside. It was the same intention as Charlie Hebdo except they didn't manage to get in."

Missed the Mark

The president missed the mark last night in his State of the Union address. He failed to talk about balancing the budget and securing entitlements for the next generation. He promised to veto Keystone, to veto changes to Obamacare and his most recent immigration executive orders, and he will veto any changes to his recent financial regulations. So much for working across the aisle.

We are teetering on the brink of a nuclear Iran, and Obama pressed in his speech to hold off on sanctions. Seemingly the leader of the free world is more than willing to trust the flower child negotiations of John Kerry, rather than back up the recommendations of Israel – a country far more experienced in dealing with Iran’s nuclear ambitions and clandestine nuclear growth.

During the State of the Union address, I felt like we were being seduced in an alternate reality of a utopian universe where archenemies are willing to put aside hundreds of years of ill will, where economics were as simple as taking from the rich and sprinkling the plunders over the poor, and where climate change was a bellwether of the death of the universe.

My “favorite” part of the speech was when Obama promised to close Gitmo, and apparently this is one promise that he plans to make good on – notwithstanding the 9/11 terrorist attacks, terror in Australia, Canada, Bali, France, Iraq and Afghanistan by the Taliban, Boko Haram, Al-Qaeda, ISIS, Hamas, Hezbollah, ISIS, etcetera.  

Fortunately Obama cannot run again.

Nihilism???

Consider this quote of our fearless leader:

"And so, you know, this is a problem that causes great heartache and tragedy and destruction, but it is one that ultimately we're going to defeat. But we can't just defeat it through weapons. One of the things that we spoke about is how do we lift up those voices that represent the vast majority of the Muslim world, so that that counter-narrative against this nihilism is put out there as aggressively and as nimbly as the messages coming out from these -- these fanatics." 


Here is the definition of nihilism:


"the rejection of all religious and moral principles, often in the belief that life is meaningless." (Wikipedia)


HE WILL NOT SAY: "ISLAMIC TERRORISM."


At the same event, David Cameron said this:

"We do face a very serious Islamist extremist terrorist threat in Europe, in America, across the world. And we have to be incredibly vigilant in terms of that threat." 

Nihilism or Islamic Terrorism?


You decide. . .

Back to the "Wild West" of Terrorism

According to news sources, five Yemeni terror suspects from Guantanamo Bay have been released – four of them to the country of Oman – which is, incidentally, next to Yemen.  Why would the Obama Administration release known terror suspects to a vicinity so close to where their terrorist activity originated? In President Obama’s latest push to close Guantanamo Bay, the release of these latest five terrorist suspects brings the detention center’s number down to 122.

In December of 2014, the Obama Administration released for resettlement five other prisoners to the nation of Kazakhstan, which – by the way – is the country that produced the child executioner who was posted in yesterday’s article. Clearly, terrorism is alive and well in Kazakhstan.

Republican Senator Kelly Ayotte, who referred to Yemen as the “Wild West” for terrorists, warned of fresh terrorist threats yesterday during a news conference when she said,

"Now is not the time to be emptying Guantanamo."

In spite of repeated warnings to keep terrorists at Guantanamo Bay, opinions on closing the prison have changed little since 2009 with 66 percent of Americans polled by Gallup indicating that they are against Guantanamo’s closure. Nevertheless, the President of the United States continues to thwart the will of the people with his Lone Ranger governing tactics.
