U.S. Allies Must Be Wondering: If Israel Can't Trust Obama Then Who Can?

The United States and Israel have remained strong allies for 60 years through Democratic and Republican administrations. At times, there have been disagreements on one matter or another, but the United States has always stood by its ally in the face of external threats and Israel has remained the beacon of freedom and hope in the Middle East. Even as Jimmy Carter sold out to Arab monetary contributions after his presidency and as Bill Clinton did the same, the security of Israel remained an unwavering aspect of the United States' foreign policy.

Now, Obama, with his cronies Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, and Susan Rice, have refused to stand by Israel against the nuclear threat from Iran. In fact, Obama has not only failed to deal with Iran but has made it clear that the United States would not support military action by Israel against the nuclear facilities in Iran. Obama has gone even further to pander to the Muslim world by demanding concessions from Israel to the Hamas led Palestinians, with no guarantees that Israel would get peace in return.

This issue is not just an Israel vs. United States diplomatic impasse. The implications are far greater. First, in the Middle East and neighboring nations, the message must be clear and very troublesome. If the United states will not stand by it's close ally Israel in a time of danger, how can any nation trust the United States during the Obama regime? What must the leaders of Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iraq and "friendly" Arab nations like Jordan, United Arab Emirates, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia be thinking? Perhaps they should strike the best deal they can with the radical Islamic forces because the United States cannot be trusted as an ally.

Second, the uncertainty must extend beyond the Middle East. We already saw how Obama double-crossed Poland and the Czech Republic on the missile defense shield and how Obama backed the would be dictator Zeyela of Honduras over those protecting the Honduran constitution. How can South Korea and Japan trust the United States under Obama with respect to aggression from North Korea. how can any former Soviet block country trust the Unite States under Obama with respect to Russia trying to resurrect the Soviet Union.

Obama is worse than than inept in foreign policy, he has shown the world that he lies and cannot be trusted.
