It's unfortunate that my Cavalier Spaniel has a better grasp of politics and strategy in the Middle East then our own president.
The idea that Israel must return to it's 1967 borders makes as much sense as telling our people that we have to return to the pre-Jefferson Purchase boundaries of 1803.
There are so many ways the president has blown it. While he did, finally, get past his indecision and give the word for special ops to take out Obama, in almost every other area he's been a full-blown screw up.
He screwed up Libya by missing his opportunity to get rid of Ghadaffi, he's screwed up generally by implementing a rank double standard (Where's our no-fly zone over Syria, again?) and now, he's completely f$%ked it up in Israel.
I'm sure, by now, the Israeli ambassador has told the Empty Suit to get bent. At it's narrowest point, Israel is 9 miles wide based on the 67 borders. Israel has given up tens of thousands of square miles of land in the abortive search for peace... having given up the Sinai, and the Gaza Strip, in fact, having undergone continuing attacks from Gaza ever since.
It would be political and military suicide for Israel to accede to Obama's clueless demands, and hopefully, Israel's Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, will tell him, ever so diplomatically, to drop dead.

Would the United States allow "right of return" to all indigenous tribes within their country?
ReplyDeleteUsing Obama's reasoning, we sure would.
