This is not a surprise for those who have been watching Iran's actions and actually taking them at their word when they say such things like "Death to America" while sending lethal weapons into Iraq and Afghanistan, for starters. This latest move, in Iran's continued quest for hegemony in the region and beyond, will probably only be a surprise to those who thought it was possible to negotiate with the largest state sponsor of terrorism. I am afraid time will show what a mistake it was for the leaders of the free world to not have helped the Iranian ...
My latest. As diplomacy talks are set to begin today between Iran and the permanent members of the U.N. Security Council plus Germany (the G5+1) to deter the Iranian regime from pursuing their nuclear weapons program, the Obama-Clinton foreign policy strategy to date appears to have strengthened Iran’s murderous regime. Last Friday, President Obama revealed that another Iranian uranium-enrichment facility is buried at an Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps base near Qom. President Obama has known about this formerly secret facility since he became President-elect and was selecting his foreign policy team that would craft, as Secretary of ...
Less than 24-hours before President Obama’s scheduled Afghanistan policy announcement, Sen. John Kerry released a report entitled: “Tora Bora Revisited: How We Failed to Get Bin Laden and Why it Matters Today.” If Sen. Kerry, the Chairman of the Committee on Foreign Relation’s report is a precursor to President Obama’s Afghanistan policy, expect a litany of Bush bashing to abundantly flow on Tuesday night. In the opening Letter of Transmittal to his colleagues, Sen. Kerry took a deliberate swipe at the Bush Administration when he wrote in part: “Our inability to finish the job in late 2001 has contributed to a ...
Obama's "Buy American" protectionism policies have forced America's long time allies to pursue business opportunities else where. Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper's administration inks another trade deal, this one with Jordan. Here's the official press release: Canada Introduces Implementing Legislation for Free Trade Agreement with Jordan The Honourable Gerry Ritz, Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food and Minister for the Canadian Wheat Board, on behalf of the Honourable Stockwell Day, Minister of International Trade and Minister for the Asia-Pacific Gateway, today introduced legislation to implement the Canada-Jordan free trade agreement (FTA) and related agreements on labour cooperation and the environment. “Farmers know that ...
Another backtrack. President Obama has ordered his Attorney General Eric Holder to look for another location to hold the 9/11 terror trials. As I noted when the decision was made, the only surprise is that anyone in the Obama administration thought it was a good idea in the first place. The White House ordered the Justice Department to consider other places to try the 9/11 terror suspects after a wave of opposition to... Read More
My first article at Tucker Carlson’s new The Daily Caller. Last month immigration reform, one of Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid’s “10 most important legislative priorities,” took another step forward when Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-Ill.) unveiled the “Comprehensive Immigration Reform for America’s Security and Prosperity Act of 2009.” Over 85 house Democrats have co-sponsored his bill. Gutierrez’s...
