Government Zero: No Borders, No Language, No Culture
“spontaneous” protests in the streets? Do you remember Hillary Clinton cackling “We came, we saw, he died,” after Mu‘ammar Gadhafi was killed by an Islamist mob? She was quite self-satisfied with her “Arab Spring,” wasn’t she? What do you think of the results now?
    Take a look at the Middle East after this administrationtoppled secular governments, allowed radical jihadists like the Muslim Brotherhood to seize power, and abandoned the Iraqi government instead of leaving a stabilizing force behind, as so many advised. It’s more radically Islamist than it’s been in a thousand years. ISIS has established a caliphate and threatens to take over all of Iraq and then move on to Syria.
    Does this benefit the American citizens whose interests Obama is supposed to represent? No. This administration’s foreign policy has worked in direct opposition to the interests of the American people, almost without exception.
    That’s just what it was doing when trying to bring about regime change in Israel. The president and his sorority want a leftist government in Israel that will not speak up, as Netanyahu did, when the United States makes the wrong deal with Iran. They want a government that will not, as Netanyahu said, stand alone and go to war, if it must, to safeguard the Israeli people.
    Netanyahu was like Gary Cooper in
High Noon
during that speech. He said to the American people, “The bad guys want to kill me and my townsfolk. We would love for you to join us, but if you don’t we’re willing to fight alone.”
    That’s not to say Netanyahu wants a war. He is a war hero and knows what war is. War is hell. It’s the worst thing that can happen to a society. Neither Netanyahu nor the Israeli people want war with anyone. He said himself, “Now we’re being told that the only alternative to this bad deal is war. That’s just not true. The alternative to this bad deal is a much better deal.”
    The Democrats ignored these very clear statements and claim he’s fearmongering, implying he does want a war.
    Do you think it is fearmongering to explain what the throwbacks in Iran are? The mullahs of Iran have said they are goingto wipe out the State of Israel and then kill all the Jews in the world. That should put the fear of God in your heart. It’s not fearmongering to face reality.
    It was actually Kentucky Democrat John Yarmouth who was doing the fearmongering when he implied Netanyahu wants war. He said Netanyahu’s speech was “right out of Dick Cheney’s playbook” and that “Netanyahu basically said that the only acceptable deal was a perfect deal or an ideal deal.” 14 That’s a lie.
    The Israeli prime minister actually gave some good advice on how to both avoid a war and make a better deal with Iran, if only Obama and the Democrats were listening.
    Unfortunately, the president claimed he didn’t even watch the speech, which I find extremely hard to believe. Can you actually believe any leader in the world wasn’t watching that speech? As I listened to the address, I saw the leaders of every nation on earth taking time out of their busy schedules to listen to what has to be one of the most important speeches of our lifetime.
    Obama said he didn’t, but that he read the transcript. He said Netanyahu “didn’t offer any viable alternatives” to the deal Obama was working on. That’s not true. Here is what the prime minister said:
    Now, if Iran threatens to walk away from the table—and this often happens in a Persian bazaar—call their bluff. They’ll be back, because they need the deal a lot more than you do. And by maintaining the pressure on Iran and on those who do business with Iran, you have the power to make them need it even more.
15
    That is what any honest person would call an alternative. To what? To the accommodating approach to negotiations the president is taking. Prime Minister Netanyahu understands the region. He understands the Iranians and their negotiating tactics. He
