The sequester has forced many branches of our armed forces to stop their college tuition aid programs for active duty troops and vets, but it hasn’t slowed obama’s cash outlay to questionable organizations and countries.

In March, the State Department confirmed that they would proceed with the $500 million in aid to Palestine, and are working to persuade Congress to grant an additional $200 million.   Read more »

Ann Althouse recently asked the question, “Has Hillary Clinton ever registered an actual accomplishment?” Good question, since her major accomplishment as the Secretary of State is to leave the Middle East imploding as she walks away on her farewell tour. If you want to know the result of her policy, just look at Egypt.   Read more »

Within the past week, Palestinian militants fired missiles at Israeli targets and Israel has responded with strikes of its own in parts of the Gaza Strip. A missile attack on Jerusalem on Friday marks the first attack on the holy city in decades. I pray for the victims of these attacks and for a peaceful resolution to the crisis. I continue to stand firmly by Israel as it works to promote and secure democratic values in a region ravaged by violence and political unrest.   Read more »

On September 11th, I had the privilege of sitting down with US Representative Dan Burton (R-IN) in his Washington, DC office. We discussed President Obama's dangerous foreign policy in regards to Egypt and the illegal war with Libya. Burton predicted there would be serious problems in this region because of the amateurish way these countries were handled by Obama. Little did we know that, within the next hour or so, Egypt would erupt

Will Obama lose Iraq? This is not an insignificant question, since Obama inherited a winning situation in Iraq, but now he is in danger of making our sacrifice in Iraq meaningless. The goal of the incoming Administration should have been to establish a relation with the new government while allowing a drawdown of our troops, but Obama simply failed to look at the long term strategic thinking in recruiting Iraq in becoming part of a bulwark against a resurgent Iran.

The Terminator series shows how both Sarah and John Connor attempts to stop Armageddon as Connor sent others to travel back into history to affect the future. The series makes the premise that maybe the future can be changed, but yet in the end, doomsday occurs, and we are never sure if the future can be changed. In Terminator 2, one is given the impression that the future can be changed and disaster averted, but the conclusion of the third Terminator Series dispels that notion as doomsday does happen.

The big question that is being asked, is decline a choice or inevitable? Can we change our destiny or will our fate be just another nation among nations

There is one word to describe Obama’s foreign policy, incomprehensible. No one can truly make sense of this policy other than to say, if it is the wrong move, it will be done. Case in point, Libya. Obama procrastinated when Gaddafi was on the rope and this delay allowed the Libyan dictator to regroup and consolidate his advantages over the Rebel forces. When Obama decided to intervene, he gave the leadership role to France and Great Britain and lead from behind; allowing a stalemate to occur. The only advantage that the NATO has is simply

After Lot had left, the Lord said to Abram: “Look about you, and from where you are, gaze to the north and south, east and west, all the land that you see I will give to you and descendants forever.” - Genesis 13: 14-15

As we watched history unfold before our very eyes, America seemed to betray its strongest ally in the Middle East.

In declaring his support for shifting Israeli-Palestinanian borders back to where they stood over 40 years ago, before the 1967 Arab-Israeli conflict, President Obama has turned his back on our greatest ally in the Middle East. Beyond this deliberate assault on Israel's sovereignty, the president also chose to ignore two critical issues: Who would retain control of Jerusalem, and where Palestinian refugees would go if boundaries were, in fact, negotiated.

Israel has long been one of our nation’s closest allies, and President Obama’s statement is rife with audacity, contempt, and disregard.

Following President Obama’s Middle East speech calling for Israeli-Palestinian borders to “be based on the 1967 lines with mutually agreed swaps,” I released the following statement:

President Obama should not unilaterally decide where the borders of Israel should be. Unprecedented U.S. pressure on our friend Israel is wrong and could make a negotiated peace with the Palestinians more difficult, as the Administration’s previous diplomatic blunders have demonstrated.   Read more »
