Obama’s policy objective in the Middle East has been clear for years: to advance the spread of radical Islam. He has accomplished this by helping or attempting to overthrow secular governments in Egypt, Libya, and Syria; by prematurely withdrawing our troops from Iraq; and by conducting the war in Afghanistan in a manner certain to result in defeat, even going so far as to illegally release five top Taliban commanders in return for a deserter. At every turn he has sided with radical Islamists intent on creating a caliphate capable of confronting the West on equal terms. But the crown jewel of his foreign policy has not yet been achieved: nuclear weapons in the hands of radical Islamists.

He is so close; nothing is going to stop him now. Certainly not our former ally Israel:

A Kuwaiti newspaper is reporting that President Obama, angered at Israeli plans to strike Iran nuclear facilities in 2014, threatened to shoot down Israeli planes before they could reach their targets.

The paper, Al Jarida, cites only anonymous sources and just a handful of other publications have followed the story. But according to israelnationalnews.com, the Arabic newspaper quoted “well-placed” sources as saying Benjamin Netanyahu and two top aides “had decided to carry out air strikes against Iran’s nuclear program after consultations with top security commanders.”

“The Netanyahu government took the decision to strike Iran some time in 2014 soon after Israel had discovered the United States and Iran had been involved in secret talks over Iran’s nuclear program and were about to sign an agreement in that regard behind Israel’s back,” the website said.

The Al Jarida story says that an Israeli minister with “good ties” to the Obama administration revealed the attack plan to Secretary of State John Kerry, who passed the word to Obama. The president then threatened to shoot down any planes in order to stop the Israeli attack.

The Ma’an News, a Palestinian news agency, did pick up the Al Jarida story, translating the piece. Their article says: “Netanyahu had to abort the operation and since then relations between Israel and the United States have been declining, according to the sources quoted in the report.”

If this report is true, it begs the question: would US pilots shoot down Israeli jets on orders from a treasonous president who is acting on behalf of a hostile foreign power? If so, they may as well follow orders to fire on us directly, because Iran — which has been in a state of war against the USA since 1979 — has made it crystal clear that they will use the nuclear weapons Obama has been helping them acquire against the American population.
