I wonder what is going through Barry's mind right now.

Obama doesn't own up to this but his actions speak much louder than his words in this case. Obama favors the radical Islamists over the Israelis. He does not do this overtly but he promotes those that promote Radical Islam over any other world culture. Case in point -- Egypt. February 2, 2011 - The Washington Post:
Obama presses Mubarak to move 'now'
President Obama, clearly frustrated by Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak's intention to retain his hold on power until elections later this year, said Tuesday evening that he has told Mubarak that a transition to representative government "must begin now."

In brief remarks at the White House, Obama made no mention of Mubarak's announcement that he had decided not to stand for reelection. Instead, Obama said he had told the Egyptian president in a telephone call that this was a "moment of transformation" in Egypt and that "the status quo is not sustainable."

Obama's message appeared carefully calibrated to avoid publicly calling for Mubarak to stand down, while making clear he should stand aside. Administration officials say they are seeking a transitional government, with or without Mubarak as its titular head, formed by representative reform leaders and backed by the Egyptian army that will address legitimate grievances, restore stability and plan for a free election.
Mubarak was 'President' for close to thirty years. A dictator but a benevolent one -- his was a reign of peace and prosperity. There was some student unrest which the Obama administration promised to support. Support was not forthcoming and there were many people murdered. Mohamed Morsi clawed his way to the top of the pile and was appointed 'President' on June 30th, 2012. Not well known was that Morsi was a staunch member of the Muslim Brotherhood. Of this organization, President Jimmy Carter says:
Jimmy Carter: I trust Egypt�s Muslim Brotherhood
In the face of warnings by the Egypt�s Muslim Brotherhood to tear up the Arab nation�s peace treaty with Israel if U.S. aid is cut, former President Jimmy Carter, the chief negotiator of the 1978 deal, says he trusts the Islamists to do the right thing no matter what. The reason: because they told him so.
Carter never heard of Taqiyya or Kitman - imbecile. The credo of the Muslim Brotherhood:
God is our objective, the Koran is our Constitution, the Prophet is our leader, struggle [jihad] is our way, and death for the sake of God is the highest of our aspirations.
More from the same site:
MB was established in accordance with al-Banna�s proclamation that Islam should be �given hegemony over all matters of life.� Toward that end, the Brotherhood seeks to establish an Islamic caliphate, or kingdom -- first spanning all of the present-day Muslim world, and eventually the entire globe. The organization further aspires to dismantle all non-Islamic governments wherever they currently exist, and to make Islamic Law (Shari�a) the sole basis of jurisprudence everywhere on earth.
Anyway, Morsi was not well received. Egyptians are a lot more connected to the world than those poor people living in small villages in Iran and Afghanistan so they can see the damage that Islamofascism is doing and they want a representative Democracy. Hence, the many million people protesting over the last couple weeks. But this is not what Barry wanted -- from National Public Radio:
President Obama: U.S. 'Deeply Concerned' Over Morsi's Ouster
Saying that the United States is "deeply concerned by the decision of the Egyptian Armed Forces to remove President Morsy (SIC ed.) and suspend the Egyptian constitution," President Obama calls on Egypt's military to preserve the rights and safety of its citizens.
From Infowars:
Egyptian Protesters Blame Obama For Morsi Dictatorship
Images seldom broadcast on mainstream media networks reveal a wave of anti-Obama fervor has gripped Egypt as demonstrators blame the White House for helping to install Mohamed Morsi, the Muslim Brotherhood leader who could be toppled later today.
From Charles Krauthammer at Real Clear Politics:
Krauthammer On Egypt: "A Shocking Position For A President To Take"
Obama is a bystander, again. Here are the Egyptians in the millions out on the street, trying to bring down an Islamist government, increasingly dictatorial, increasingly intolerant, arresting journalists and judges, trying to Islamicize the military and the people are saying no, and what does the president of the United States do? He takes a position of studied neutrality, says he is not supporting either side. And yet, as you point out in the Mubarak revolution, he obviously strongly took the side of the people. He demanded that Mubarak had to go, he was not neutral.

This reminds me of the Green Revolution in Iran in 2009 when the same thing happened. Islamists, dictatorial government, the people out in the street, and they were shouting Obama, Obama, are you with us or against us. And he took a position that was essentially supportive of the regime, and the reason was he wanted to negotiate a nuclear deal which he thought he could do and he didn't want instability.

That was a shameful episode. But there's also idea of national interest. Mubarak was pro-American, he was an ally of ours, he helped us in all kinds of ways. Obama worked against him. Morsi represents a movement which is essentially deeply anti-American, and deeply anti-democratic, yet he is neutral on this. This is a shocking position for a president to take.
And now, Morsi is gone -- from Politico:
Military ousts Morsi in Egypt
Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi was forced out of office Wednesday by the Egyptian military and opposition leaders, just a couple of hours after the Obama Administration voiced its first public doubts about Morsi's handling of the massive street protests that spread across the country in recent days.
Emphasis mine -- the Obama spin-doctors are at work in the soft machine. I bet that Barry is really really pissed. It would be interesting to see what he does in the next few days if there were not the great chance that it would be something that further hurt our Nation and crippled our Economy. I actually feel a wee bit sorry for Michelle.
