Ruins of the Middle East; Obama shuns our friends and courts our enemies.


Victor Davis Hanson  "Obama’s unfortunate Middle East legacy was predicated on six flawed assumptions:
(1) a special relationship with Turkey;
(2) distancing the U.S. from Israel;
(3) empathy for Islamist governments as exemplified by the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt;
(4) a sort of non-aggression agreement with Iran;
(5) expecting his own multicultural fides to resonate in the region;
(6) pulling out of Iraq and Afghanistan.

Mr. President, it's 3 am; do you know what's happening in the world?

 
Narrated Ibn ‘Umar:   ...Allah’s Apostle said: “I have been ordered (by Allah) to fight against the people until they testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad is Allah’s Apostle, and offer the prayers perfectly and give the obligatory charity, so if they perform that, then they save their lives and property from me except for Islamic laws and then their reckoning (accounts) will be done by Allah.”

"The verse I posted just above showed that jihad is more than a defensive war. There is also an offensive jihad, as proven in the Reliance of the Traveller. A Classic Manual of Islamic Sacred Law.

The Mellow Jihadi claims: Could terrorists turn themselves into Ebola suicide ‘bombs’? Experts fear ISIS jihadists may infect themselves to spread virus in the West.    "Certain Western government ‘agencies’ operating around African states over the past several months, are fully aware of the Islamic terrorist groups who have been actively seeking Ebola infected clothing for the use of ‘weaponisation’ – this as well as smallpox among other hideous diseases. Which sadly is a FACT!"
 

British MPs vote an overwhelming ‘Yes’ to Palestine

Times of Israel     "274 support motion urging ‘the government to recognize the State of Palestine,’ while only 12 oppose, in vote laden with symbolism"

The British Parliament votes to recognize a Palestinian state (screen capture)
 
... "The motion was initiated by backbencher Grahame Morris* from the main opposition Labour party, who said Britain had a “moral responsibility” to act because of its history as colonial power in the region.
 
"The vote was especially symbolic given that Britain was the mandatory power in Palestine from 1920-1948, when the State of Israel was founded, and that Britain’s Balfour Declaration of 1917 was a significant milestone en route to the revival of Jewish statehood.
 
"Although it has no binding effect, some of its supporters said they hoped it would place pressure on Israel to change its polices on the Palestinians. " ...
