Obama's Middle East problems (Updated 2/7)

IRANIAN OFFICIAL LAYS OUT ATTACK PLAN TO DESTROY ISRAEL IN NINE MINUTES
"lireza Forghani, an Iranian politician and staunch ally of the regime, recently released an article titled, “Iran Must Attack Israel by 2014,” according to the Middle East Media Research Institute.
"....“When the outrageous rhetoric from Ahmadinejad and people like Forghani is coupled with the capability, with nuclear weapons, to actually destroy the Jewish State of Israel, we can’t afford to dismiss what they are repeatedly telling the world,” said a Capitol Hill aide who tracks Iran. “The Hill is taking the threat from Iran very seriously.” "    Rick Moran comments on this source.


Update: Obama, Democrats Own Syria Failure  "In pursuit of the war on terror, the Obama administration has been willing to give up its sanctimonious moral posturing in the fact of military and political reality. Yet on foreign policy writ large, it still clings to its fantasies. Syria’s impending collapse presents both dangers and opportunities–but the administration is ill-placed to confront either, having diminished the American power that Obama never understood, and still bitterly resents."


Heritage: Morning Bell: Middle East Crumbles Around Obama’s Foreign Policy  "Thousands are dead in Syria, with more blood spilled each day. Iran is within arm’s reach of a nuclear weapon, threatening Israel’s very existence. And in Egypt, 19 Americans are banned from leaving the country, making them veritable hostages in an unfriendly land. All indications are that the Middle East is crumbling, and President Barack Obama’s foreign policy is collapsing right along with it."


Alan Caruba: Taking Hostages: Tehran in 1979 - Cairo in 2012  "Just as Jimmy Carter was seen as weak, so too is Barack Obama and, for America and the world, that is very bad news. I don’t care if the Iranian leadership and other militant Islamists don’t like America. I want them to fear us."
...."Our present problem is that Obama does not like America any better than our enemies do."
