Obama's Foreign Policy?

It's been too long since my last blog. The latest series of Mid Eastern Events has forced me to again pull out the laptop.  One ambassador down and how many to go? Apparently, the administration doesn't care based upon its non-existant foreign policy. Or, I should say, its policy of attempted appeasement to the Muslim World. Not 2 weeks in office and there the "Great Orator" was in the Mid East apologizing for the United States. Apologizing for what--attempting to allow people to govern themselves and have some individual freedoms that we have had for over two hundred years.  Now, 4 years later we have  an extremist Arab World taking advantage of the impression Obama has left on the world. That is, a country that no longer stands for world freedom or a country that has abandoned its allies throughout the world.  With this as a backdrop, the extremists, whether 5 or 10% of the population, has organized an anti-american world wide rally agains freedom and the US.  Civilians, soldiers, an ambassador and countless others were killed because of a lack of foreign policy.  Next, comes the problem with Iran that cannot be ignored. Are we to abandon Israel so that Iran can threaten with a nuclear arsenal within 6-8 months. If this is not stopped now, the post nuclear Iran will be too terrifying to imagine.  Prior to WWII, Chamberlain attempted to appease Hitler.  Worked out well, don't you think. Even in the movie, Mars Attacks the US president's statement (played by Jack Nicholson) "Why can't we all get along" likewise worked out well. No one likes war.  But mankind has been warring since first able to pick up a rock. Perhaps the time has come for an all out confrontation against all these mid east terror groups and Iran before it becomes to late.  While Romney may not be the best, he can only be better than what we have.
