Another Obama “Mishap”

Saturday, August 21st, 2010

For all that Obama has done which has prolonged and worsened the financial crisis that we are in, his worst mishap may have just happened.  Obama pressured and reassured the Israelis that a nuclear Iran would not be a threat.  This may have stopped Israel from stopping Iran. 

I am not what you call an isolationist, nor am I someone who thinks we should stick our noses into another nation’s business.  A nuclear Iran, however, is a danger to world peace.  That is not to say that I think that we should have attacked Iran, but I think we are responsible for stopping Israel from attacking Iran’s capabilities before it is too late. 

At this point, Iran may only have nuclear capabilities to create nuclear energy, but it will not be long before Iran has nuclear weapons that they will undoubtedly attempt to use against Israel.  Luckily for Israel, God has a long-standing promise that He will protect them as He did protect Abraham as he traveled from Mesopotamia to where God led him; Jacob as Esau sought to kill him; Joseph and his family as they escaped drought; the Hebrews as they lived in and fled Egypt on their way to the Promised Land; from attacks by the Canaanites and Philistines; from destruction by Haman; from captivity under the Egyptians, Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians, and the Romans; from the “Christians” in the Crusades; fromt the Europeans they lived amongst peacefully until a rise of anti-Semitism; from Hitler and the rest of Europe who joined the Axis; from the Ottoman Empire; from the Arab nations in 1948, 1967, 1973, 1982, and other conflicts; and many others.

Luckily, even Obama cannot destroy the promises of God as he has our economyand healthcare.

Barack Checks Out Girl at G8

ABC can try to refute it, but Obama definitely checked out the girl from the back side and acted as if nothing had happened by going through the motions of helping the other person down the steps.

Prime Minister Olmert Says Jerusalem Must be Divided

Monday, November 10th, 2008

Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert stated that in order to keep Israel Jewish and democratic, then Jerusalem must be divided to keep peace.  Jerusalem Post

Olmert has stated some of the same old rhetoric.  This is not about land.  Israel will not receive peace for land.  This is about destruction.  If Israel gives up “land for peace,” this will just bring more war.  This will be perceived as weakness.  Israel needs to maintain strength, including a strong base for fighting war.  Land is the key for peace.  Israel needs to maintain strong borders, strong geographical locations for conducting war, and a strong buffer area to fall back into if an aggressive war is waged against them.  If Israel has less land, she has greater risk of being overrun.  A safe Israel means a safer world.  Perhaps the Middle East is the greatest threat to World War III.  If peace can be held there, hopefully it can be held throughout the world.
