The President's New Middle East Policy.

I do not need any pictures, cartoons or reports for this post to my blog. The easy thing would be for me to say "I told you so"; since the outcome of the unrest in Egypt is so important for the future well being of the American people. However, since the outcome is so important, I wish to take a more reasoned approach.

My opinion is that President Obama, Secretary Of State Hillary Clinton and their army of advisers and consultants are now beginning to receive the Muslim answer to the "New Middle East" foreign policy of the United States. The answer is not good for the future of peace in the Middle East and indeed the rest of the world. Remember, it was in Cairo that the President launched the cornerstone of his new middle east policy. It took about a year for the President to receive his answer. Mr. President, you are at a major moment of truth in your presidency. You desperately need to learn from history and change your middle east policy before it's too late. Please understand that what you see playing out in Egypt is just the beginning of a much broader threat to stability in the Middle East. Mr. President, you are dangerously close to being judged by history as another Jimmy Carter. For the sake of the American people, I urge you to not go down this path.
