U.S. State Department Flounders in Utopian Dystopia





One of the basic tenets of the progressive movement is dependence on an administrative state filled with experts knowledgeable in their respective fields.  However, one must consider the end product.  Here is a gem that typifies the genius of Washington D.C.:


Officials in the Trump administration's State Department are standing by a recent report criticized by Congress that blamed Israel for terror attacks and claimed Palestinians rarely incite violence, telling the Washington Free Beacon that it remains unclear why terrorists engage in violent acts.


Rep. Peter Roskam (R., Ill.), co-chair of the House Republican Israel Caucus, criticized the State Department Thursday for releasing a report portraying Israel as the culprit in terrorism and downplaying Palestinian incitement of violent acts against the Jewish state, the Free Beacon first reported.

Now, we know President Trump is a strong supporter of Israel and a harsh critic of the Palestinians, so why is his State Department contradicting his positions?  Could it be that we have rogue agents deeply embedded within this agency?  Do we have a Deep State that believes elections are inconsequential?


I began to question the so-called intelligence of these governmental agencies and in particular the U.S. State Department especially when Russia invaded the Crimean Peninsula.  A number of years ago, I read Samuel P. Huntington’s, The Clash of Civilizations and the Remaking of World Order.  This man predicted the outcome years before it happened.  Did anyone in the State Department see this coming?  If they did, it was a closely guarded secret because Russia has control over Eastern Ukraine as we speak.

How about the Clinton administration’s slavish acquiescence to North Korea?  Here he is reassuring Americans of a nuclear free North Korea:

"Before I take your questions, I'd like to say just a word about the framework with North Korea that Ambassador Gallucci signed this morning. This is a good deal for the United States," Clinton said at the press conference.

"North Korea will freeze and then dismantle its nuclear program. South Korea and our other allies will be better protected. The entire world will be safer as we slow the spread of nuclear weapons.

"South Korea, with support from Japan and other nations, will bear most of the cost of providing North Korea with fuel to make up for the nuclear energy it is losing, and they will pay for an alternative power system for North Korea that will allow them to produce electricity while making it much harder for them to produce nuclear weapons.

"The United States and international inspectors will carefully monitor North Korea to make sure it keeps its commitments. Only as it does so will North Korea fully join the community of nations."
 
That sounds a lot like the Obama administration’s Iranian nuclear deal?  Apparently, these people are incapable of  learning from their mistakes.  I wonder if China will sell them the missile technology that Clinton traded for campaign donations?  Why not?  How do you think the North Koreans are getting theirs?

Stupidity isn’t partisan.  When President George W. Bush invaded Afghanistan he had hundreds of years of history to consult and didn’t.  I recently watched a documentary about Afghanistan and was dumbstruck at how all these experts in Washington D.C. completely ignored the lessons of the British empire’s forays into that god forsaken hellhole.


Anyone who has confidence in Washington’s D.C.’s expertise hasn’t been paying attention.

Secretary John Kerry: Americans Should Appreciate our Incompetent Foreign Policy




Strength through weakness.  Exceptional is ordinary.  Our enemies are allies.  Islam is a peaceful religion.  The Obama administration is competent....

Secretary John F. Kerry in the 19th 1/2 Century!




Last Sunday, Secretary of State John Kerry decried Russia’s invasion of the Crimean Peninsula as so-19th century.  Doesn’t Putin know that countries aren’t supposed to act like this in today’s utopia?  How can Obama rule America with all these foreign policy distractions?


You just don’t in the 21st century behave in 19th century fashion by invading another country on completely trumped up pre-text, it is serious in terms of sort of the modern manner with which nations are going to resolve problems. There are all kinds of other options still available to Russia. There still are. President Obama wants to emphasize to the Russians that there are a right set of choices that can still be made to address any concerns they have about Crimea, about their citizens, but you don’t choose to invade a country in order to do that.





Naïve is a word that comes to mind when Secretary Duck Dodgers in the 19th in a half century utters nonsense like the one above.  What’s next?  Is he going to employ Daffy Duck’s ultimatum dispatcher?  I’m sure Putin is quaking in his boots.


    

History is replete with aggression and oppression, but somehow, Kerry believes human beings have advanced beyond those norms.  Take a look at what’s going on in the world.  The 21st century is no different than the last.  I would go even further and state that most countries haven’t advanced beyond the 8th century.  Can anyone say Islam?



For all of the bluster that spews out of Washington D.C. I would say the Obama administration is stuck in the 1930’s.  Their economic policies mirror FDR’s failed New Deal and their approach to foreign aggression is Chamberlain-esque.  There is nothing 21st century about Barack Obama and his hirelings.

Obama's Prison Yard Bitch Diplomacy Backfires

Congratulations Barack Obama. The world is ablaze. Our embassies have been sacked and burned to the ground. It’s open season on our ambassadors and citizens. And it’s all because you donned on a pair of “hot stuff” pantys and wiggled your ass to all the illiterate inbreeds in the Muslim world. You thought your prison yard bitch approach to foreign policy would mollify a people whose only reference of self-government is through the prism of dictators. What a disaster.






And what was the catalyst for this conflagration? What kind of effrontery could give these degenerates a license to sodomize and kill our ambassador? If someone told you a movie that denigrates their so-called prophet, Muhammad, you would laugh out loud in disbelief. But that is the pretext. By the way, no one has seen this movie.


And to make matters worse, the morons in our State Department apologized for our “freedom of speech.” Secretary Hillary Clinton had to give a fifth grade tutorial on how our style of government works, after Egypt’s newly elected thug demanded that Obama arrest the filmmaker.

What does democracy look like? A mob if you live in a Muslim country. And why should we expect anything different. Their prophet and standard-bearer of humanity was a despot. That shouldn’t surprise anyone. As we’ve seen, it takes a beast master to tame these packs of wild dogs.

Allies Laugh at Obama's Suck Up



Remember how the progressives constantly worried about President George W. Bush embarrassing the United States. To them Obama’s election was a redeemable event. They believed the Messiah is their gift to the world. According to them, the Anointed One is the most intelligent man who ever resided in the White House.

Obama has been in office for three years. He now has a record. The above video is a small example of how the world looks upon our most venerated president. After all, Obama is the most intelligent being that has ever graced the American people with his existence, and demands the respect of one and all.

Is Barack Obama an Islamophile? Just ask Israel!



Barack Obama wasn’t kidding when he said he wanted to fundamentality change the United States. He has alienated our friends and allies, while embracing a people and culture that are hostile to Western Civilization.

Does Obama have an axe to grind? Is he an Islamophile? It would certainly explain his attitude towards Israel. He has funded their enemies, and made demands that would compromise Israel’s national security. At the same time, this president has invited 80,000 Muslim immigrants onto our shores via executive order without the approval of Congress. The Constitution specifically gives that authority to the legislative branch, as outlined in Article One, Section Eight. But this “president” has demonstrated on numerous occasions his disdain of our founding principles.

If Obama hasn’t completed his threat of fundamentally changing the United States, just wait until he has a second term. We can expect him to rule like a sultan, instead of a president of the United States.

Should States Request Foreign Aid to Subsidize Illegal Aliens



The Obama administration along with activist for illegal aliens won a small victory in the 11th U.S. Circuit Court. The highly effective Alabama law known as HB 56 had portions put on hold due to constitutional questions.


The Justice Department submitted an argument that state and local governments had no right to protect their citizens from an invading third world horde. They believe illegal immigrants fall under the purview of federal foreign policy:

CNN) -- A federal appeals court has blocked enforcement of parts of a controversial immigration enforcement law in Alabama.

The injunction issued Friday from the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Atlanta came after the U.S. Justice Department -- supported by a coalition of immigrant rights groups -- requested the legislation, known as HB 56, be put on hold until the larger constitutional questions can be addressed, a process that could take some months at least.

The 16-page order gives both sides partial victories, allowing some parts of the law to go into effect while others are temporarily blocked.

The Obama administration says the Constitution does not permit states to deter illegal immigration, saying an issue with foreign policy implications is the exclusive mandate of the federal government.

Well, if that is the case, then shouldn’t local and state governments petition the State Department for redress? Should they not reimburse the citizens for the burden of educating, housing, and providing health care to these foreigners?

Does the state of Alabama qualify for foreign aid?

Libtards Croon Over Obama's FDResque Foreign Policy Successes





The Libtards are crooning over Obama’s foreign policy “successes”. Real Clear Politics catches one of the biggest moonbats smelling the flower of Obama glory:

Howard Dean, former Governor of Vermont and Chairman of the DNC, opines on President Obama's foreign policy: "It's been really good as Commander-in-Chief and that's not what the election is going to be fought on. It's going to be fought on the economy.



"But, he's getting our troops out of Iraq. They'll be almost all gone by the end of this year, if not all of them. The Afghan war is being drawn down. Osama bin Laden is dead and Muammar Gaddafi is on his way out. Nobody's had a foreign policy record like that since -- I don't know how far back you'd have to go. Not Ronald Reagan, not George W. Bush. Nobody. I don't know, you'd have to go back to Harry Truman before -- or Franklin Roosevelt before you get a record like that."

The Arab spring would be considered a success if you have a deep seeded hatred for Christians and Jews. Egypt has become a killing field for Coptic Christians, and swastika banners are cropping up in demonstrations. One banner read that the gas chambers (click on link below) are ready. Here is an Islamic scholar extolling the precepts of that religion of peace:

Islamic scholar Dr. Salah Sultan issued a religious decree according to which it is permissible to kill "any Israeli on Egyptian land, in response to the killing of Egyptian soldiers near the border with Israel," Egyptian Al-Shuruq newspaper reported on Tuesday.


Sultan is a lecturer of Muslim jurisprudence at the Cairo University. In the decree, he ruled that "every Muslim who meets a Zionist is entitled to kill him, after Israel killed 'Camp David'. The Egyptian people do not distinguish between Egyptian and Palestinian blood," he ruled. (Roee Nahmias

I believe Howard Dean is correct. You would have to go back to FDR to find a record like that.

Iraq is descending into chaos, thanks to the Iranians. The rebel victors in Libya are made up of an Al Qaeda element, and the proposition of Sharia legislation is going to be the guiding factor in a new constitution. Isn’t that swell?

The world is on fire and the Democrats think it’s a success.

Ron Paul's Libtard Iranian Policy




Whenever you debate a Libtard about American foreign policy, eventually the 1953 Iranian coupe comes up. Ron Paul’s evocation of this popular myth is disturbing, particularly coming from a Republican presidential contender.

I wrote about this last year. Here is an excerpt:

If you have talked to anyone on the left, they always use operation AJAX and the C.I.A. as an example of Yankee arrogance and duplicity. Yet, these self-loathing Americans don’t know or refuse to acknowledge that the overthrow of Prime Minister Mohammed Mossadegh was a popular uprising.

Mohammed Mossadegh became prime minister of Iran in 1951. His meteoric rise came from a coalition of nationalist, Islamist, and communist known as the Tudeh Party. This confederation was belligerent to British oil interest in Iran, and they confiscated their assets. Great Britain responded with a naval blockade.

This international crisis led the Shah to dismiss Mossadegh. However, supporters of the prime minister took to the streets, and the Shah reinstated the Doctor. Mossadegh became increasingly belligerent. He eventually dismissed parliament, called for a national referendum in which he received 99.9% of the vote; a feat reminiscent of Saddam Hussein, and then established emergency powers circumventing the Constitutional Monarchy. The Shah again tried to dismiss Mossadegh, but the prime minister had the messenger arrested. The Shah fled Iran.

Great Britain convinced the United States that Mossadegh was seeking agency with the Soviet Union. Iran whose geographic location overlooks the Straits of Hormuz is a strategic gateway to the Persian Gulf. Eisenhower dispatched a handful of C.I.A. agents under the leadership of Kermit Roosevelt, and a budget of $1million dollars of which only $72,000 was used.

Eventually the blockade along with Mossadegh’s disastrous socialist economic policies, such as collectivist farms, alienated his supporters. Hundreds of thousands of citizens took to the streets, where the army joined them to overthrow Mossadegh.

The Lefties and their American hating confederates would have us believe that a handful of C.I.A agents and $72,000 could overthrow a so-called popularly elected prime minister. That kind of sentiment does not reflect highly on the intelligence of the Iranian people.

Not only has Ron Paul misinterpreted history, he completely ignores the existential threat of this Iranian theocracy. They’re not like the Soviets. The Mullah’s are fanatics bent on establishing a worldwide Islamic caliphate. This regime is funding a network of terrorist organizations around the world, namely Hezbollah, who by the way have established roots in Mexico.

Ron Paul’s wacky foreign policy stance is reason enough why I can’t support him.

Ron Paul's No Compromise Campaign Ad





Here is Ron Paul’s new campaign ad.  I agree with his stance on economics; but his foreign policy issues are less than desirable.  Blaming the United States for Islamic terrorism is an easy out.  It’s quite obvious he needs to read up on Islam, and particularly the life of Muhammad.  Maybe then he will have a better understanding of what Western Civilization is up against.
