Fallen Heroes


While the MainStreamMedia and its moronic minions mourn the deaths of two entertainers, whose only contribution to the world was entertainment, the deaths of American soldiers go pretty much un-noted.

1st Sgt. John Blair , US Army, was KIA on June 29th in Mado Yazi, Afghanistan.

Negotiating With Terrorist
 
by Andrew McCarthy
The Obama administration ignores a longstanding — and life-saving — policy.

As the Iranian government’s murderous repression of the Iranian people continues, critics right and left agitate over the deafening silence of an American president who, as a candidate, derided the Bush administration’s ambitious democracy promotion as too timid.

They speculate as to why Barack Obama won’t speak out: Why won’t he condemn the mullahs? Is he daft enough to believe he can charm the regime into abandoning its nuclear ambitions? Does the self-described realist so prize stability that he thinks it’s worth abandoning the cause of freedom — and the best chance in 30 years of dislodging an implacable American enemy?

In truth, it’s worse than that. Even as the mullahs are terrorizing the Iranian people, the Obama administration is negotiating with an Iranian-backed terrorist organization and abandoning the American proscription against exchanging terrorist prisoners for hostages kidnapped by terrorists.

Worse still, Obama has already released a terrorist responsible for the brutal murders of five American soldiers in exchange for the remains of two deceased British hostages.

... Back in May 2008, in a speech before the Israeli Knesset, President Bush derided the “foolish delusion” of unidentified, naïve politicians who “seem to believe we should negotiate with terrorists and radicals, as if some ingenious argument will persuade them they have been wrong all along.” Exhibiting a thin-skinned consciousness of guilt, Sen. Barack Obama assumed Bush had been referring to him, and lashed out: “George Bush knows that I have never supported engagement with terrorists.” ...

President Obama is now way beyond mere support of such engagement. Under his leadership, and even as the mullahs who have been at war with the United States for 30 years are engaged in a Tiananmen-style crackdown, Obama is neck-deep in terrorist-for-hostages negotiations with Iran-backed killers who have American blood on their hands. ... The media have had precious little to say about this astounding performance.

The Organization Formerly Known as ACORN

Now Known as "Community Organizations International"


The organization formerly known as ACORN thinks it can somehow make things all better, maybe avoid criminal prosecution, by changing it's name.

Well, why not?


The War on Terror is now known as the Overseas Contingency Operation.

And a Terrorist is now referred to by some as a freedom fighter.

   While Thousands of people are in the streets of Tehran, a few people seem to be Missing: Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Barack Hussein Obama 

 

Not Missing: Mir Hossein Mousavi
 
 

 

Nile Gardiner:

Ten days on from the fraudulent Iranian election, President Obama still looks like a deer in the headlights without a coherent strategy.
His response has been weak-kneed and utterly lacking in conviction. When faced with his first real test as a world leader Barack Obama decided to press the snooze button rather than take decisive action.
It is hard to imagine Ronald Reagan sitting on the fence while a revolution took place before the eyes of the world against one of the most oppressive regimes on the planet.
Obama finally issued a half-hearted statement over the weekend calling on Tehran to "stop all violent and unjust actions against its own people" only after coming under intense criticism from critics at home for his softly softly approach.
By that time dozens of demonstrators had been murdered by the barbaric "security forces" and their proxy militias and thousands of protesters, including women had been brutally beaten.
Obama did not though question the legitimacy of the Iranian election result, directly criticize Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, or outline any change in America’s policy towards Iran.

As far as the Obama team is concerned, the demonstrations are an annoying inconvenience getting in the way of the new policy of "engagement" with rogue regimes, also known more commonly as "appeasement."

Every impression is given that the Obama White House is largely indifferent to the plight of the Iranian people and their suffering. The most powerful man in the world is acting as though he were the leader of a small neutral nation, rather than the head of a global superpower.
Barack Obama has a clear choice between siding with millions of Iranians who are clamoring for greater freedom, or aligning himself through passive acquiescence with a brutal Islamist tyranny.
Just as the United States openly sided with Russian and East European dissidents who spoke out against Communist oppression decades ago, today it must voice its support for those who are fighting for liberty in Iran.
The United States cannot remain neutral in the face of totalitarianism -- it has to take a stand and be on the right side of history. It must also seek to isolate Ahmadinejad and the Mullahs that back him rather than continue a fatally flawed strategy of engagement.

Ultimately, short of military action, the West’s best hope in heading off the prospect of an aggressively hostile Iran armed with nuclear weapons is to back a change of regime.
As a world leader Obama is already looking like the Jimmy Carter of the 21st Century, passive in the face of an array of adversaries, and actively weakening America’s defenses by cutting defense spending while adopting an apologetic tone for his country’s past.
In his first six months Obama cannot point to a single foreign policy success. He should though acknowledge that the Obama doctrine of reaching out to America’s enemies, including Iran and North Korea, has been a spectacular failure.

Vigorous Debate?


ROBERT GIBBS, WHITE HOUSE PRESS SECRETARY and Media Mouthpiece:

I think the president has been clear that this is a vigorous debate in Iran between Iranians about their leadership.

Well, I guess I've just never considered shooting and brutally beating unarmed people as vigorous debate.
