August 19, 2015 SnyderTalk: Obama Got What He Wanted in the Middle East

1--Intro Covering Israel and ME

“For from the rising of the sun even to its setting, My Name will be great among the Gentiles, and in every place incense is going to be offered to My Name, and a grain offering that is pure; for My Name will be great among the Gentiles,” says Yahweh Sabaoth. (Malachi 1: 11)

Marc Lynch—Obama and the Middle East:

Critics of U.S. President Barack Obama’s Middle East strategy often complain that Obama lacks a strategic vision. This is almost exactly wrong. Obama came to office with a conviction that reducing the United States’ massive military and political investment in the Middle East was a vital national security interest in its own right. The occupation of Iraq and the excesses of the war on terrorism had left the United States overextended, especially at a time of economic crisis. “Rightsizing” the United States’ footprint in the region meant not only reducing its material presence but also exercising restraint diplomatically, stepping back and challenging allies to take greater responsibility for their own security. Obama has adhered consistently to this strategy, prioritizing it ruthlessly along the way and firmly resisting efforts to force it off track. This was not a strategy much beloved in Washington or in a region hard-wired for the exercise of American power. But it was a clear and coherent strategy that led Obama to undertake major initiatives on the problems he viewed as rising to the level of core national security interests: Iran’s nuclear weapons program, terrorism, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and the war in Iraq.

Yet for all of Obama’s analytic acuity, the implementation of his policies has often floundered. His administration has consistently failed to deliver on the promises raised by his inspirational speeches. It has struggled to communicate its policies effectively to publics in the Middle East and has been unable to explain obvious hypocrisies. Efforts to remain evenhanded and noninterventionist have infuriated partisans on all sides who wanted unconditional U.S. support rather than an honest broker.

The administration has struggled to adapt when its policies have failed, from Israel’s refusal to freeze settlement building to Egypt’s military coup to the disintegration of the Iraqi military in the face of what would become the self-declared Islamic State, or ISIS. It has also failed either to restrain or to reassure U.S. allies, which have therefore worked, without penalty, to undermine many U.S. foreign policy initiatives. The Middle East’s autocrats had previously thrived thanks to U.S. security guarantees and a shared antipathy to Iran and Islamists, and they wanted no part of a United States that might support, however tentatively, popular demands for democratic participation, diplomatic engagement with Tehran, or the political inclusion of Islamist movements. Nor did Israel under Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, ever more closely aligned with the Republican Party, want much to do with U.S.-led peace talks with the Palestinians or outreach to Iran.

The end result has been a gaping chasm between Obama’s analytic successes and his operational failures.

SnyderTalk Comment: Since the day Obama took office, our allies in the Middle East have been warning us that the U.S. pullback is threatening an all-out war in the most volatile region in the world.  In a roundabout way, Marc Lynch, a writer for Foreign Affairs, says that Obama planned the mayhem we are experiencing.

Now, our Middle Eastern allies know that they were right.  The war they feared is well underway, and there is much more to come.

Obama got what he wanted; our allies got the shaft; and the American people will pay the price because the president’s term will probably expire before all hell breaks loose.

Rest assured that’s what will happen.  Obama made sure of it with the Iran deal.

I’ve said this before, but I’ll say it again anyway: pray for the best but prepare for the worst because that’s what we are going to get.

Investors.com: ISIS Organizing Small Armies Inside America—Homeland Insecurity: The FBI’s arrest of a group of New Jersey and New York Muslims trying to organize a “small army” for the Islamic State leaves little doubt we are facing a full-blown Islamic insurgency inside our borders. According to a just-released federal criminal complaint, five young Muslim men tied to IS were busted conspiring to recruit a small army for the terror group in New Jersey and New York. The busts bring to 70 the number of IS-inspired terrorists arrested in this country in homeland plots. Meantime, the FBI reports that all 56 of its field offices have active investigations against other IS suspects. It’s now clear we’re besieged by a Fifth Column. Yet the White House fatuously insists these are unrelated, unconnected, isolated, one-off “lone wolf” incidents. Federal agents don’t see it that way. They see all these “lone wolves” running in the same religious pack. On Monday, agents charged Nader Saadeh, a 20-year-old Jordanian immigrant from Rutherford, N.J., with providing material support to IS. Saadeh’s 23-year-old brother, Alaa, along with at least three other Muslims were also arrested in connection with the IS cell.

Conservative Tribune: Police Officer Beaten by Black Man Reveals Why He Didn’t Shoot Attacker… This Is Pure Insanity—An Alabama police detective was the recent victim of a brutal beating by a thug who was upset that he was pulled over and questioned about a recent burglary in the area. But instead of defending himself, the detective refused to fire his service weapon at 34-year-old Janard Cunningham because he didn’t want to become the next Darren Wilson — the former Ferguson police officer forced to live in hiding after justifiably shooting Michael Brown. “He hesitated simply because of what’s going on in society right now,” explained Sgt. Heath Boackle of the Birmingham Police Department. Since the outbreak of civil unrest in cities like Ferguson, Missouri, and Baltimore, police officers around the country have become more hesitant to do their jobs and protect the public for fear of media backlash.

SnyderTalk Comment: Barrack Obama must think that he’s the smartest person in the world.  He shares that affliction with Hillary Clinton.  I wonder if Obama had any idea that this would be the result of his nonstop race baiting.

Obama can be thankful that he has Secret Service protection and that he will have it for the rest of his life.  Thanks to Obama, ordinary Americans can look forward to increasingly insecure law enforcement officers trying to avoid becoming targets as their first priority.  The Secret Service has no inhibitions about shooting people who attack the president.

Recently, a SnyderTalk reader told me that Obama has to be intelligent because he was the editor of Harvard Law Review.  I don’t buy that argument.  The fact that Obama wrote nothing for the HLR while he was editor speaks volumes.  It tells me that Affirmative Action is a more pernicious problem than most people realize.

I don’t want to beat a dead horse, but if you haven’t already purchased guns and ammo, now would be a good time to buy them.

The excrement hasn’t hit the fan yet, but it will.  When it does, you won’t be able to purchase guns or ammo in stores.  The entire stock of both will disappear in a few days—maybe in a few hours, and it will take months to replenish the inventory.

Under those conditions, people who own guns and ammo and are willing to sell them will mark up the prices to levels that will blow your mind.  They are not price-gouging.  They bought more guns and ammo than they needed while they were readily available as an investment.  They are simply reaping the rewards of prudent investing, and large numbers of people will be happy to pay any price that they can afford.

Some people won’t be able to afford to buy guns or ammo.  That’s a problem.  Some people who can afford to buy them won’t be able to find really good guns and top quality ammo.  That’s another problem.

My explanation will sound like hogwash to some, but very few of those who don’t own guns and ammo today have ever dreamed that they will actually need to own and know how to use guns to protect the lives of the ones they love.  Police officers will be among the first to tell you that this warning is not based on wild speculation.  It’s a simple matter of connecting the dots.

As I told my nephew a few days ago, if a man knew the day that he was going to die, he would wait until the day before to purchase life insurance.  If a man knew the day that he would need to use guns to defend himself and his family, he would wait until the day before to buy guns and ammo.

We don’t know the exact day that those things will happen, but every one of us is going to die one day and the day is coming when we will need to use guns.  I may be wrong, but I’ll bet that I’m right.

And by the way, the day will come when we will learn that many of the attacks against police officers that are taking place right now all over the country are being orchestrated by ISIS.  See the previous article “ISIS Organizing Small Armies Inside America”.

SnyderTalk Comment: It’s not just the IRS and the EPA doing the attacking and it’s not just the private sector of the economy being attacked.  It’s Obama’s feds vs. everybody else.

Mark Chesnut: Court Tells Nosy Doctors To Butt Out — Again—Florida doctors intent on prying into their patients’ gun ownership habits, and those anti-gunners who support such activities, have recently been handed another huge loss—marking another major victory for Sunshine State gun owners. In the latest action in a long, back-and-forth battle, the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Atlanta lifted an injunction that had blocked enforcement of Florida’s Firearm Owners’ Privacy Act, which barred doctors from asking patients about gun ownership, or keeping records on patients’ gun ownership, unless medically necessary. This is the second time the Act has been upheld by the courts.

FARS News Agency—Iran: Leader Stresses Iran’s Firm Standing against US Regional Policies—Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei described Iran and the US regional policies as complete opposite, and said Tehran is standing firm against Washington’s divisive plots in the region. Addressing participants in the 8th International General Assembly of Islamic Radios and Televisions Union in Tehran on Monday, Ayatollah Khamenei referred to the recent nuclear agreement between Iran and the world powers, and said, “Washington imagined that it could use this agreement whose fate is not clear yet – as its final approval is not yet a definite fact neither in Iran nor in the US – to find a way to wield influence in Iran; and this was their intention.” But “we closed this path; and we will definitely keep it closed”, he underlined. “We will not allow the US to influence (our) economy, or politics or culture. We will stand against such penetration with all our power – that is, thanks God, at a high level today,” Ayatollah Khamenei said. “They seek to disintegrate the regional states and create small and subordinate countries but God willing, this will not happen,” Ayatollah Khamenei warned, elaborating on the US regional policies. “Disintegration of Iraq and, if they can, Syria is the clear policy of the Americans, but the territorial integrity of the regional states, Iraq and Syria is highly important to us,” he added.

FARS News Agency—Iran: [Iran Nuclear] Chief Sees Iran as Winning Side Even If US Congress Disapproves Deal—Head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) Ali Akbar Salehi said his country will be the winning party even if the nuclear deal that is the result of years of negotiations fails to receive the approval of the US Congress. “The fate of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCOPA) is not fully clear yet since there is commotion in the US, and the Congress and the US administration have stood up to each other,” Salehi said, addressing a gathering in Tehran on Sunday. He said Iran has already achieved its goal. “No matter the JCPOA is approved or disapproved by the US Congress and even if Obama fails to do anything, we will be the winning party,” he added.

Gabriel Scheinmann: Enriching Iran—The nuclear deal will do for Iran what the chemical weapons deal did for Syria. By making Iran indispensible to its own nuclear limitation, Iran has fulfilled its original nuclear objectives: the West’s acquiescence – and even facilitation – of its regional hegemonic ambitions. In return for temporary enrichment restraints, the deal fuels Iran’s conventional capabilities and greases Iran’s path to power. Much like the Soviet bomb ensured Moscow’s control over half of Europe, an Iranian bomb would remodel the Persian Gulf and its littoral sheikhdoms into Iranian tributaries, facilitating energy and transit shakedowns. Furthermore, an Iranian bomb would turbo-charge the Persian subversion of Gulf States through their Shiite populations, and embolden its existing proxies. Like the Syria deal, the Administration will be powerless to punish Iranian aggression, for it would doom Iranian nuclear compliance. Unlike the Syrian deal, no element of Iran’s nuclear infrastructure will be dismantled and all substantive restrictions are time-limited.

Salomon Benzimra: The Iran Nuclear Deal’s Fallout on the United Nations—On July 20, the UN Security Council rushed to pass UNSC Resolution 2231 unanimously endorsing the nuclear treaty and committed itself to rescind six binding resolutions – passed from 2006 to 2010 under Chapter VII of the UN Charter – originally intended to prevent Iran from enriching uranium and developing ballistic missiles. Iran had systematically scoffed at these resolutions. However, Resolution 2231 is silent on other equally binding Chapter VII resolutions, especially UNSC Resolution 1566 of Oct. 8, 2004, which stresses the obligations of all nations against states or organizations involved in terrorism. Considering that Iran has been the world’s number one state sponsor and promoter of terrorist activities for years, it is inconceivable that world powers could turn a blind eye to their international obligations and acquiesce to the ongoing atrocities instigated by Iran. Moreover, the imminent lifting of sanctions and the release of billions of dollars to Iran under the provisions of the treaty fly in the face of the equally binding UNSC Resolution 1373 of Sept. 28, 2001, which calls for “all States…to prevent and suppress the financing of terrorist acts.”

Saeed Ghasseminejad: A Raw Deal for Iran’s Dissidents—Iranian dissidents are increasingly worried that – with the nuclear deal signed and business prospects looming – the West will give Iran a pass on human rights. But now is when the West most urgently needs to support dissidents. Otherwise, a decade from now, when restrictions on Iran’s nuclear and ballistic missile programs are lifted under this deal, the West will confront the same militant and terrorist-sponsoring regime that rules Iran today – now with nuclear arms. Heshmat Tabarzadi, who spent the better part of the last 15 years in prison, wrote that “these days, after the mullahs achieved the agreement they needed, pressure on civil society is increasing.” In the last two decades, Tehran has moderated its policies only under pressure; resuming its aggression when that pressure is relieved. Last week, Iran tried to assassinate the leaders of two major Kurd opposition groups and executed a political prisoner convicted of “waging war against God.” The bottom line for the West: Abandoning Iranian dissidents to appease Tehran is bad policy. The nuclear deal will not encourage the regime to mend its ways. To the contrary, it feels vindicated in its actions by the flow of dignitaries and foreign delegations coming to Iran to hail the deal.

SnyderTalk Comment: Obama has betrayed our allies and freedom loving people all over the world including those in Iran.

Yitzhak Ben-Israel—The Ongoing Iranian Threat:

  • The official policy of the Iranian regime calls for “death to the U.S. and to Israel.”
  • The regime of the ayatollahs has long held the view that without nuclear weapons it will not be able achieve its designs against the U.S., Israel and the Western world as a whole. It believes that possession of such weapons would afford it immunity from retaliation.
  • The revolution’s revered first leader, Ayatollah Khomeini, stated in 1988 that the Islamic Republic required “the capacity to manufacture a significant number of laser and atomic weapons that would be essential for war.” In the wake of that speech, a project was launched with a precise timetable and well-defined budgets for the acquisition of nuclear weapons by Iran. This is the project we are contending with today.
  • If Iran abides by the nuclear deal, it is likely to delay the Iranian bomb by more than a decade. But we cannot overlook the fact that the Iranians have in the past been caught red-handed several times in nuclear enrichment activities, in clear violation of international conventions to which they are party. We would be well advised to proceed on the assumption that they will try to cheat this time too.
  • Israel accepts the American distinction between the Iranian regime and the Iranian people, who, for the most part, want to return to the family of nations. But, unlike the U.S., Israel does not see how the fruits of a reinvigorated Iranian economy can reach the people without significantly enhancing the regime’s aggressive power.

Fay Voshell: The Little Hand—The little hand summons silence in Heaven and on earth for at least a half an hour. The image declares it is time for all the newspeak and all the bloviating about reproductive rights, the freedom to do as one wishes with one’s own body, the lies about masses of tissue, the faux arguments about women’s “health” to cease.  Talk is terminated — silenced by one little hand. Stop, it voicelessly utters. Silence. What follows the silence? Repentance follows; repentance in dust and ashes. Recognition follows; recognition that once again, as the nation once realized when it compromised with the evil of slavery, that there is no compromise possible with evil. None. The time for debate has passed. It’s time for disobedience. It’s time for revolutionary action.  It’s time for war. Yes, war. War against evil.

Christoph Reuter: Secret Files Reveal the Structure of Islamic State— Aloof. Polite. Cajoling. Extremely attentive. Restrained. Dishonest. Inscrutable. Malicious. The rebels from northern Syria, remembering encounters with him months later, recall completely different facets of the man. But they agree on one thing: “We never knew exactly who we were sitting across from.” In fact, not even those who shot and killed him after a brief firefight in the town of Tal Rifaat on a January morning in 2014 knew the true identity of the tall man in his late fifties. They were unaware that they had killed the strategic head of the group calling itself “Islamic State” (IS). The fact that this could have happened at all was the result of a rare but fatal miscalculation by the brilliant planner. The local rebels placed the body into a refrigerator, in which they intended to bury him. Only later, when they realized how important the man was, did they lift his body out again. Samir Abd Muhammad al-Khlifawi was the real name of the Iraqi, whose bony features were softened by a white beard. But no one knew him by that name. Even his best-known pseudonym, Haji Bakr, wasn’t widely known. But that was precisely part of the plan. The former colonel in the intelligence service of Saddam Hussein’s air defense force had been secretly pulling the strings at IS for years. Former members of the group had repeatedly mentioned him as one of its leading figures. Still, it was never clear what exactly his role was.

Victor Sharpe: The Counterfeit Arabs— They are the Arabs who call themselves Palestinians. They are indistinguishable from those Arabs who live in the surrounding artificial states such as Iraq, Jordan, Saudi Arabia or the other entities throughout the Middle East created by the colonial powers, France and Britain. Both powers were victorious after the Ottoman Turkish Empire lay defeated at the end of World War I. Both of these European powers carved artificial borders across the corpse of what had been Turkey’s empire in the Middle East, and both France and Britain have left a resulting legacy of war and violence ever since. One such territory, previously occupied by Ottoman Turkey for 400 years, was the geographical entity known sometimes as Palestine. But there is no such thing as a Palestinian people; no such thing as a Palestinian history; and no Palestinian language exists. There has never been any independent, sovereign Palestinian state in all of recorded history — let alone an Arab independent state of Palestine.

SnyderTalk Comment: The so-called “Palestinian people” is a gigantic lie, but the world has bought it hook, line, and sinker.  What’s worse, it involves the Promised Land.  That means Yahweh’s reputation is on the line.  Siding against Yahweh is very dangerous.  In fact, it’s idiotic.

Soeren Kern—Belfast Pastor on Trial for Offending Islam

  • Pastor McConnell’s prosecution is one of a growing number of examples in which British authorities — who routinely ignore incendiary speech by Muslim extremists — are using hate speech laws to silence Christians.
  • “I think this is an important issue of freedom of speech. I believe a prosecution like this introduces a chill factor into society where people feel that if they speak out on something that they believe passionately they could end up being dragged through the courts.” — Democratic Unionist Party MP Sammy Wilson.
  • “The police tried to shut me up and tell me what to preach… They have the right to say what they believe in and I have a right to say what I believe… I have no regrets about what I said. I do not hate Muslims, but I denounce Islam as a doctrine and I make no apologies for that… My church funds medical care for 1,200 Muslim children in Kenya and Ethiopia…I’ve no hatred in my heart for Muslims, but I won’t be stopped from preaching against Islam.” — Pastor James McConnell.
  • “James McConnell didn’t incite hatred or encourage violence against any Muslim…H e simply expressed his views about another religion. Freedom of speech should mean that he has every right to lambast Islam, as Islamic clerics have to lambast him and Christianity if they so choose. Those who disagree with Pastor McConnell should challenge him and attempt to win the debate, rather than close it down… Freedom of speech isn’t only for polite persons of mild disposition airing their views within government-policed parameters. It’s about letting awkward, insulting and even offensive voices be heard too. And yet the silence from civil liberties and human rights organisations here has been deafening. In any democracy worth its salt, freedom of speech isn’t a luxury for your friends, it’s a necessity for your enemies. Defending Pastor McConnell’s right to say what he said doesn’t mean approving or embracing his sentiments.” — Suzanne Breen, an atheist journalist, Belfast Telegraph.
  • “Islam is allowed to come to this country, Islam is allowed to worship in this country, Islam is allowed to preach in this country and they preach hate…. We are persecuted in Islam if we stand for Jesus Christ.” — Pastor James McConnell.

SnyderTalk Comment: Christians beware.  This is coming to America.

Yair Rosenberg: Tel Aviv University’s Egyptian Valedictorian: ‘We Must Always Question Our Assumptions’— Last week, Tel Aviv University held its annual graduation ceremony for international master’s students. The event unfolded like most of its kind, with the school’s academic officials offering the assembled students congratulations on the occasion and wisdom for the wider world. But then the year’s valedictorian took the stage and delivered an address that was anything but the usual predictable platitudes. Haisam Hassanein was born and raised in rural Egypt, probably the last place one would expect an Israeli university’s valedictorian to hail from. In his speech, Hassanein recalled how he had been surrounded from childhood by anti-Israeli stereotypes at home and in the media.

Exodus 19

10 Yahweh also said to Moses, “Go to the people and consecrate them today and tomorrow, and let them wash their garments; 11 and let them be ready for the third day, for on the third day Yahweh will come down on Mount Sinai in the sight of all the people. 12 You shall set bounds for the people all around, saying, ‘Beware that you do not go up on the mountain or touch the border of it; whoever touches the mountain shall surely be put to death. 13 No hand shall touch him, but he shall surely be stoned or shot through; whether beast or man, he shall not live.’ When the ram’s horn sounds a long blast, they shall come up to the mountain.” 14 So Moses went down from the mountain to the people and consecrated the people, and they washed their garments. 15 He said to the people, “Be ready for the third day; do not go near a woman.”

14--Blessings from Revelation 2

Blessings in the Book of Revelation is a book that you need to read, especially now.  There are blessings throughout the Scriptures but Revelation is the only book in the Bible actually containing a specific blessing for reading it. It’s repeated twice, once at the beginning and again at the end. This is the reason that I believe Revelation should be the first step toward studying biblical prophecy. Though not easy to do, Revelation can be broken down and understood by anyone, not just the academic elite. So, Revelation’s blessings are for everyone.  Click here to order the eBook.  Click here to order the paperback.
