On Tuesday, Frank Gaffney<\/a> posted an article in the Washington Times<\/a> about the treatment of Israel<\/a> by the Obama Administration<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The article begins by reminding us:<\/p>\n

In October 2001, Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon issued a prophetic warning: \u201cDo not repeat the dreadful mistake of 1938, when enlightened European democracies decided to sacrifice Czechoslovakia<\/a> for a \u2018convenient temporary solution.\u2019 \u201d He declared: \u201cIsrael will not be Czechoslovakia.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mr. Gaffney compares the statements of the Obama Administration that indicate Israel is on its own to the statements made by western nations in 1938, which Hitler took as a green light to invade the nation of Czechoslovakia. The Obama Administration does not seem to notice that Iran is closely watching the statements the administration is making regarding Israel.<\/p>\n

The article reminds us:<\/p>\n

Even more troubling has been the cumulative effect of Obama policies toward the Middle East that are helping transform large swaths of the region into a festering Islamist sore, prone to jihad \u2014 most immediately against Israel and, inevitably, against the United States<\/a>. In particular, Mr. Obama\u2019s determination to legitimize, empower and enrich the government of Egypt\u2019s new Muslim Brotherhood President Mohamed Morsi adds materially to the danger confronting the Jewish state and American interests.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The legitimization will reach new heights later this month when Mr. Morsi gets the red-carpet treatment in New York and Washington. The empowering included not just demands conveyed by Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton<\/a> in July that the Egyptian military surrender power to the Brotherhood-dominated presidency and legislature. It also apparently entails U.S. acquiescence to Mr. Morsi\u2019s moves to remilitarize the Sinai in violation of the Camp David Accords<\/a>. The enriching piece involved an unconditional, lump-sum payment earlier this year, over bipartisan congressional objections, and is reportedly to be followed by the incipient transfer of a further $1 billion.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Predictably, as with the sellout of Czechoslovakia in the 1930s, what such concessions will produce is an emboldening of freedom\u2019s enemies. That will not be good for its friends \u2014 here or abroad.<\/strong><\/p>\n

We can sit and watch as Egypt remilitarizes the Sinai Peninsula<\/a> or we can choose to develop a backbone and cut off any aid to Egypt until it removes its troops and weapons from the area. Unfortunately, I think under President Obama<\/a>, we will sell out Israel just as Europe sold out Czechoslovakia. Selling out Israel may bring us a temporary period of something that looks like peace, but it will not bring us peace.<\/p>\n
