Road to War

As Iran escalates her nuclear capacity and aims her proxy militia, Hizbollah, which has co-opted the nation of Lebanon at Israel, with Syria's backing, the President of the United States, the one man on earth with the capacity to stop World War III, sits silent. In a time that calls for boldness, Obama is diffident. In fact, should Israel feel abandoned, backed into a corner, and facing an existential threat, forcing her to take military action to forestall the atomic destruction of Tel Aviv, I am in no way confident that President Barack Hussein Obama would not turn his wrath against the Jewish state, at a minimum imposing sanctions and perhaps overseeing the complete dismantling of the Zionist enterprise. Ronald Reagan by most reports was an ardent supporter of Israel and initially endorsed the bombing of the Osirak nuclear reactor whose construction and activation was a step on the path to providing Saddam Hussein with the capacity to rid the world of Israel, but even Reagan, friend of Israel was turned by advice from Foggy Bottom and held Israel culpable for her act of self-preservation by means of preemption. Barack Obama is no Ronald Reagan. Obama is no certain ally to the Jewish state and will surely not do anything to declaw Iran with US force. Obama's timidity now sadly assures a great calamity later.
