Today’s Daily Caller<\/a> posted an article about events at the United Nations last week regarding Israeli settlements.  The United States had suggested a resolution rebuking Israeli settlements as illegitimate.  This was done as a compromise instead of the resolution calling the settlements illegal and an obstacle to peace (which the United States vetoed).  <\/p>\n

The article at the Daily Caller cites three major problems with our actions at the United Nations.<\/p>\n

1.   The President’s willingness to take sides against Israel at the very anti-Israel United Nations is a major shift in American foreign policy.  The United Nations has been taken over by the Arab League.  We need to withdraw our membership and ask the UN to relocate to an Arab country.  It is not good public relations for the world to see America turn her back on her friends.<\/p>\n

2.  This is another example of the Obama Administration’s policy of kissing up to our enemies at the expense of our friends.  Recently we gave away British nuclear secrets in order to secure to START Treaty.  (see rightwinggranny.com<\/a> February 5).  <\/p>\n

The article at the Daily Caller reports:<\/p>\n

“At the same time, despite showing a willingness to side with the Israel’s enemies to attack Israel at the U.N. and despite delivering a harsh diatribe against Israel at the Security Council meeting, the U.S. still didn’t win any points with Arab regimes or the Arab street because it was ultimately seen as publicly vetoing the resolution.”<\/o:p><\/font><\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Not only did we mistreat our friends–we gained nothing in doing it–that’s not diplomacy!<\/p>\n

3.  At the time when President Obama was playing games at the United Nations, the Middle East was in turmoil.  Where was his focus?  <\/p>\n

The foreign policy errors in this administration in the past two years are frightening and damaging to our country.  I am fearful that in the next two years President Obama will continue to do serious damage to American interests across the globe.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
