Weekend Roundup - Obama Sells Out the Liberated Nations of Eastern
Europe
Posted: 18 Sep 2009 03:42 PM PDT
(Note to readers, due to the Rosh Hashana holiday, regular posting will only resume on Sunday night)
The big story at the close of the week is Obama's abandonment
of the missile defense shield. To understand the implications of this,
imagine if Walter Mondale had won in 1984 and had decided to abandon SDI
aka Star Wars. The result would have been a decisive American retreat in
Europe, one that would have seriously strengthened the Soviet position and
might have prevented the collapse of the USSR.
Except Russia today
is stronger and more aggressive than it was in 1984, and Putin has
demonstrated his determination to retake former Soviet territories with
his invasion of Georgia and by repeatedly amping up the tension with
Ukraine. The missile defense shield represented an American commitment to
defend the liberated nations of Europe. Abandoning it is a green light to
Putin to begin moving up Russia's invasion plans.
Not only has
Obama sold out Israel to Islamic terrorism. Not only has Obama sold out
Honduras and Columbia to the Marxist regimes of Cuba and Venezuela. But
now Obama has sold out Eastern Europe to Russia. And the last time Poland
was sold out, the result was WW2.
Poland and Czechoslovakia, the
first line targets of Germany, naturally
feel betrayed by Obama.
"Betrayal! The U.S. sold us to Russia and stabbed us in
the back," the Polish tabloid Fakt declared on its front
page.
Polish President Lech Kaczynski said he was concerned that
Obama's new strategy leaves Poland in a dangerous "gray zone" between
Western Europe and the old Soviet sphere.
The Bush
administration's plan would have been "a major step in preventing
various disturbing trends in our region of the world," Kaczynski said in
a guest editorial in the daily Fakt and also carried on his presidential
Web site.
An editorial in Hospodarske Novine, a respected
pro-business Czech newspaper, said: "an ally we rely on has betrayed us,
and exchanged us for its own, better relations with Russia, of which we
are rightly afraid."
"This is not good news for the Czech state,
for Czech freedom and independence," said Mirek Topolanek, the former
Czech Prime Minister. "It puts us in a position where we are not firmly
anchored in terms of partnership, security and alliance, and that’s a
certain threat."
Beyond even opening the door to Russia trying to restore
the Warsaw Pact, Obama has once again demonstrated that American
agreements to allies are absolutely worthless.
By rejecting the
Bush Administration's oral agreements with Israel, Obama gave the first
sign that his administration would not be bound by a previous
administration's agreements. He has now done the same thing on a much
larger scale. The message has been conveyed in bold type around the world
that American protection and agreements are meaningless.
This
makes it a matter of child's prey for Russia to begin sweeping up what's
left by pointing out that Eastern European countries have a choice between
depending on an America that won't protect them when Russian tanks come
sweeping across the border, or cutting a deal with Russia. A deal that
will naturally mean installing a Russian puppet regime in charge before
long.
With Belarus as the Venezuela of the region, Russia can begin
"reuniting" the Warsaw Pact all the way up to Poland.
Obama
already demonstrated precedence
by personally calling the Czech Prime Minister, while sending Hillary
Clinton to talk to the Polish PM. The Polish Prime Minister rightly
rejected the call.
As far as Russia is concerned, that's as good as
a menu order.
And now Obama has managed to alienate most of
America's closest allies, leaving only a handful of Western European
nations that still haven't broken with the administration.
And the
global picture is ugly as hell for the man who was supposed to make the
world love America again.
Japan's new government is on the outs
with the US. Eastern Europe is on the outs. Israel is on the outs.
Honduras is on the outs. A trade war is brewing with China. If anything,
despite media spin, America's diplomatic position globally is much worse
than it was before. And we're running out of allies to sell out real
fast.
And what if anything has Obama gained for the US from all
this? Absolutely nothing. Not one damn thing. Now that's some
diplomacy.
Meanwhile America's worst president continues to make
the rounds, accusing Wilson of racism. Glenn Beck rightly
points out that Jimmy is a member of Osama's Book Club (the slightly
more moderate version of the Oprah book club), but perhaps Beck himself
should stop featuring
fellow Osama Book Club member Michael Scheuer. (Scheuer's book
Imperial Hubris shares the dubious honor of being both on Osama bin Laden
and Ron Paul's reading list.)
Unsurprisingly Carter has his own extensive racist background,
* Carter's top campaign staffers were spotted
distributing grainy photographs of Sanders arm-in-arm celebrating with
two black men. Sanders was a part-owner of the Atlanta Hawks, and in the
photograph he was celebrating a victory with two players who were
pouring champagne over his head. Carter's leaflet was intended to
depress Sanders's white vote.
* "The Carter campaign also produced a
leaflet noting that Sanders had paid tribute to Martin Luther King,
Jr."
* Carter criticized Sanders, a former governor, for preventing
Alabama Gov. and notorious segregationist George Wallace from speaking
on Georgia state property. "I don't think it was right for Governor
Sanders to try to please a group of ultra-liberals, particularly those
in Washington, when it means stifling communication with another state,"
said Carter.
* "'I have no trouble pitching for Wallace votes and
black votes at the same time,' Carter told a reporter. Carter also said
to another reporter, 'I can win this election without a single black
vote.'"
* Upon receiving the endorsement of former Democratic Gov.
Lester Maddox, Carter responded by praising the life-long
segregationist: "He has brought a standard of forthright expression and
personal honesty to the governor's office, and I hope to live up to his
standard." Maddox had not only refused to serve blacks in the restaurant
he once owned, but he had also greeted civil rights protestors with a
gun, and made sticks available to his white customers with which to
intimidate them.
*
"The campaign paid for radio ads for a fringe
black candidate, C.B. King, in an effort to siphon black votes away from
Sanders."
*
"Then there was the radio commercial in which Carter
said he would never be the tool of any 'block' vote, slurring over the
word 'block' so that it could be mistaken for
'black.'
But of course according to the media, Carter is a saint and
an expert on racism, while Joe Wilson is a huge racist. But at least we
now know Carter is indeed an expert in race baiting anyway.
As
Alan Keyes points out, Carter is just
adding a new twist to classic race baiting.
True to his "bigoted liberal" roots, Carter has invented
a new racial stereotype. All blacks are communist-leaning proponents of
national socialism. That's the only premise on which opposition to
Obama's policies can be offered as prima facie evidence of anti-black
racial bigotry.
As I recall it was quite common for hard-line
segregationist opponents of the civil-rights movement to characterize
blacks as communist agitators. It seems to me that the Southerner who's
harking back to those old stereotypes isn't Joe Wilson. It's Jimmy
(smile-when-you-say that) Carter. Of course, he's not alone. For years
white liberals and their fawning black Quimbos (the wicked slaveholder
Simon Legree's sadistic black overseers in Harriet Beecher Stowe's
"Uncle Tom's Cabin") have made it clear that only those who buy into
their irrational leftist bunk will be accepted as genuine black people.
Perhaps this is their recipe for getting beyond race. It worked so well
for them that, after his sexual escapades in the Oval Office, they
proclaimed Bill Clinton to be the first black president. (Apparently,
accepting leftist bunk means rejecting traditional sexual morality.
Thus, as it was for the old Southern segregationists, so too for these
leftists – uncontrollable fornication becomes a sine qua non of the
black identity.)
The left's standard tactic is to play divide and conquer
with minority groups, and hijack their identities in conformity with their
own ideology.
So the only black people they recognize are liberals.
The only Jews they recognize are liberals. The only gay people they
recognize are liberals. The only women they recognize are liberals. The
list goes on.
Meanwhile in time for Rosh Hashana, America's
favorite Al Gore supporting church, the Westboro Baptist Church is headed
to picket Jewish synagogues and schools. They appear to be carrying signs
reading "Jews
Stole the Land" which puts the Westboro Baptist Church, aka the Phelps
clan, as another convert to the Palestinian terrorist side of
things.
In the big blog roundup, the Watcher of Weasels council includes one of my articles in its submissions, from Right TruthThe Islamic Danger blog has a comment of its own on living with terrorism.
"Terrorism"--the Islamic incursion into the West and its
drive to Islamizise it--will not cease until the West (Europe, United
States) is under Islamic domination or the Mohammedans are once again
defeated--as has occurred several times in history. As we would rather
not live under Islam (at least here in the United States), the second
alternative is preferable. Ah, but how to achieve it? A careful
examination of how Islam was beaten back before--sent to sulk for
centuries in its misery until stupidly uplifted by the West's gift of
oil wealth--will give the answer. The defeat of Islam, because that is
what this war is about, Islam versus the non-Islamic world, can be
accomplished. A study of prior defeats of the Moslems by the West will
yield strategies and tactics that can be applied again. I will not go
into detail here and send Moslems scurrying to maps and history books so
as not to be forced to repeat their mistakes of the past. The
Reconquista, Poitiers, Vienna show us what went right for us and what we
could have improved upon. Economic, military, diplomatic, and political
means must be used to achieve the ultimate goal: the sound defeat of the
Islamic forces and the return of Islamic populations to Islamic
lands.
Whatever you think about the Tea-Party protesters,
whether you think their cause (or causes) is right or wrong, you cannot
help but notice different standards applied to them and the
demonstrations organized by the far left.
First, the matter of
numbers. It’s strange how a protest of tens of thousands will make the
first few pages of the NYT but a conservative protest with hundreds of
thousands is back on page A-37.
President Obama said this week that his health care plan
won't cover illegal immigrants, but argued that's all the more reason to
legalize them and ensure they eventually do get
coverage.
Not only does Obama want to provide illegal aliens with
national health care coverage. He wants to do it by legalizing them,
compounding two wrongs.
Lemon Lime Moon writes Nancy Has Concerns
“I have concerns about some of the language that is
being used because I saw … I saw this myself in the late '70s in San
Francisco,” she said.
Poor Nancy.
I think she heard a lot
of that kind of language used about George Bush and other Republicans
too.. you know, death threats, calling him Hitler and calling
non-Democrats nazis. There was a lot of that going on . A lot of
conspiracy theories circulated about the Iraq war and 9 11 too but Nancy
didn't say much about that. She doesn't say much when things suit her
purpose.
But now, is Nancy Pelosi hoping for agent provocateurs
to cause bloody violence or is she a prophetess now
too?
The title for this post was: Is Islam A Mental Disease?
While prosecutors, defense lawyers, and domestic violence advocates will
claim this case is about domestic violence and nothing else. But Islam
is the white elephant in the court room. You can't avoid the fact that
Muzzamil Hassan is a Muslim and his wife was a Muslim.
In fact,
according to local news reports, Assiyah Hassan was the more religious
of the two. That he beheaded her could well have been a deliberate
method of murder and if it was deliberate how could his attorney argue
insanity? Muzzamil Hassan was running a television not in the throws of
a psychosis babbling and dishevled on the streets.
Further, if
the beheading was indeed deliberate and he was capable of successfully
caring out this gruesome act it can't possibly be the result of a
temporary rage. Seeing as Assiyah was the more religious of the two the
beheading could well have been Muzzamil's attempt at giving his
religious wife the "justice" she deserved.
There's no way to get
around the fact that he beheaded her. Why is Assiyah's murder different
from other domestic violence murders? She was beheaded. Check FBI stats
on domestic violence cases resulting in murder. See beheading is the
method of killing in those cases. Few to none at all.
Islam can't
be ignored because of the nature of the crime, not the motive or
domestic violence. Yes there was domestic violence but there was also
Islam. Even though Muzzamil wasn't as religious as his wife, as a
"moderate" or "secular" Muslim he nevertheless brought his Pakistani
Islamic culture to the tiny Buffalo suburb of Orchard Park.
What
I find interesting is that when Muslims want reasonable accomdation in
American society (which typically means all non-Muslims kowtowing to
Muslims to the point that we're actually forced to practice Islam--no
ham sandwiches in cabs, no alcohol etc) they argue that it's their
religion.
In fact, even in Israel IDF soldiers were urged not to
eat in front of Muslims during Ramadan! Well, if the Jew refrains from
eating during 30 days of Ramadan isn't he also practicing Islam in a
way? Forced Islamization with kid gloves under the guise of tolerance
and respect and accomodation.
When a crime occurs with any hint
that it could be an honor killing it's suddenly not Islam anymore but
their culture. And then it suddenly becomes a mental
defense.
