SHORT
COMMUNICATION 380
No
Policy President
By
Roger Behra
All the people who voted for America’s
President Obama now realize that they have been bamboozled. It is sad that has
happened in America at a crucial time in America history and the world situation.
Many chickens are going to come home to roost because Obama has no policies to
make things better. He has taken the road of appeasement to takes no action at
all. It is absolutely justifiable to call Mr. Obama America’s no policy
president.
What really irks the voters and
especially the ones voted for him is shortly after he took office he began his
180° turn away from many of his campaign promises and words. As a result he has
suffered the lowest percentage of approval of any president after only a short
time in office. That has infuriated his Democratic voter-base and not helped
America at all.
In matter of foreign relations with
Russia and Iran, it has been a disaster. The New Start treaty Obama counted on
has been largely ignored by Russia because Obama ruffled Russia’s feathers over
missile defense. No help from Russia in Iranian matters are coming from Russia,
either. In fact, the exact opposite is true. Moscow has thwarted America at
every turn as they help Iran’s nuclear ambitions. Moscow has weakened or
blocked resolution after resolution. Russia has declared it will oppose any new
sanctions on Iran, also. Vladimir Putin is blaming America for being the secret
power behind recent anti-government protests in Russia.
Even worse, is Obama’s approach to the
situation with Iran? Years ago, when Obama began his presidency, he started by
bowing, apologizing, and acknowledging the U. S. involvement in a coup that
happened over 50 years ago. His bilateral negotiations failed miserably because
of no firm policy. He adopted neutrality during the popular revolution in Iran
in 2009 because he had no policy to put in place. That revolution was a golden
opportunity to help the people foster a regime change, which cannot be possible
now. Currently, Iran is diligently racing ahead in their weapons development
program and their feverish goal to become a nuclear power. Iran has the help of
Russia, China, and North Korea. No Obama policy is in place to counter act
that.
Recently, Iran forced down a U. S.
drone, and Obama asked Iran to give it back to the U. S. Iran completely
ignored Obama, who took no action at all. That helped to confer legitimacy on a
savage and terrorist regime. It’s a certain bet that China and Russia has
benefited from information derived from the capture drone.
Iran hopes to someday complete the
wish to wipe Israel and the U. S. off the face of the earth. Iran already has
ballistic missiles that go 1,500 miles with a payload and drones with a range
of 1,250 miles. They except to have a missile that can reach Israel and the U.
S. shores by 2015. All of this progress puts Iran in the very troublesome
category and should be monitored around the clock. Israel has a great intelligence
system, and Obama must develop a policy that listens to Israel and supports
them in matters of Iran’s weapons development and motives.
