Basically, Obama's policy is "World, you're on your own!" We need that policy here at home.
....
"The weakness in Obama's strategy is that the situation in many regions could suddenly and unexpectedly move in undesirable directions. Unlike the Cold War system, which tended to react too soon to problems, it is not clear that the current system won't take too long to react. Strategies create psychological frameworks that in turn shape decisions, and Obama has created a situation wherein the United States may not react quickly enough if the passive approach were to collapse suddenly."
However, as David Letterman's writers would say, "Obama is just too competent" to find fault with.
What a great title by Ken Blackwell: Mr. Obama's 'Grovel-Ready' Foreign Policy "President Obama began badly. He went to London and bowed low before King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia. The famous red "reset" button he had Hillary present to the Russian Foreign Minister, Sergei Lavrov, was intended to give Moscow a pass for its aggression against the neighboring Republic of Georgia. The button was even spelled wrong. How do you spell "appeasement" in Russian?"
....
"The president has yet to visit the only real ally we have left in the region -- Israel. Lucky Israel. It's the only friend of America that that has not been de-stabilized by this president's feckless* policies." Also from Patriot Post
*Feckless; Feckless describes someone who is ineffective or irresponsible. (adjective)
A person who cannot be trusted to take on responsibility is an example of someone who would be described as feckless. yourdictionary.com
The Tunnel Wall cites the following Michael Ledeen column as an example:
Obama Administration Ignored Iranian Opposition’s Advice "It cautions that any agreement with the regime would require the United States to recognize the legitimacy of the regime, promise to maintain silence on questions of human rights inside the country, and abandon the Middle East. And even if the regime promised to abandon its nuclear program and cease its support for terror, it would not honor these commitments. It needs both terror and nukes in order to survive."So far as I can tell, the demands for American silence on Iranian affairs, recognition of the regime’s legitimacy, and withdrawal from the region are precisely what the Obama administration has received through all their contacts with the Iranian regime."
