Did you know that the U.S. doesn't consider Egypt an ally?
Obama announced that Egypt is no longer our ally.
From CBS News:
President Obama says the U.S. would not consider Egypt an ally, "but we don't consider them an enemy."
Mr. Obama said in an interview with the Spanish-language network Telemundo that Egypt is a "new government that is trying to find its way." He warns that if the Egyptian government takes actions showing "they're not taking responsibility," then it would "be a real big problem."
I wonder how Obama is going to "distance himself" from his latest idiotic comment.
(UPDATE: White House clarifies Obama’s statement that Egypt is not an ‘ally’
Good grief. Obama is a foreign policy buffoon. He puts us and the rest of the Free World at risk. After nearly four years in office, Obama is an amateur at foreign policy.)
Egypt is no longer an ally.
We know Obama treats Poland like it's not an ally.
We know Obama treats Israel like it's not an ally.
Wow. What a foreign policy genius!
Here's video of NBC News chief foreign correspondent Richard Engel's shock at Obama's statement that Egypt is not an ally of the U.S., from Hot Air:
Transcript
CHUCK TODD: I just want to get your first reaction, before you give me a report, of the President saying Egypt was not an ally or an enemy.
RICHARD ENGEL: Yeah, I almost had to sit down when I heard that. For the last forty years, the United States has had two main allies in the Middle East — Saudi Arabia and Egypt, the other ally in the Middle East being Israel. For the President to come out and say, well, he’s not exactly sure if Egypt is an ally any more but it’s not an enemy, that is a significant change in the perspective of Washington toward this country, the biggest country in the Arab world. It makes one wonder, well, was it worth it? Was it worth supporting the Arab Spring, supporting the demonstrations here in Tahrir Square, when now in Tahrir Square there are clashes going on behind me right in front of the US embassy?
You can see now teargas coming — teargas being fired into a crowd of demonstrators who are trying to get close to the embassy, which is at the end of the street, and throw rocks at the US embassy. A very different scene here, a very different Egypt before, when the United States — President Obama — was supporting the demonstrators, President Mubarak was in power, and Egypt was very much an ally. The President doesn’t seem to be sure if Egypt is an ally any more, and some demonstrators who the Arab Spring helped give a voice to are trying to attack the US embassy.
Bottom Line: Obama is a disaster on foreign policy.
Two words: Jimmy Carter.
(Or as the brilliant Obama would say, three words.)
Remember, in the 1980 campaign, Gov. Ronald Reagan was criticized for his foreign policy inexperience.
I think it's important to keep that in mind when the liberal media and other Democrat hacks criticize Mitt Romney for his lack of experience in that area.
(How much experience did Obama have on the world stage before he was elected? And after his election, his first step was his Apology Tour and Bowing expedition. What a smart guy!)
Strong principles based on our God-given rights, peace through strength, a strong military, pride in America's greatness, and being an advocate for freedom is the groundwork for U.S. foreign policy successes.
It makes sense why Obama is so lacking when it comes to his foreign policy. His only rival in terms of failure is Jimmy Carter.
God help us, but Obama appears to be on course to secure his place in history as worse than Carter.
I would much rather have Mitt Romney sitting in the Oval Office dealing with this foreign policy implosion right now.
Obama is in the process of destroying us domestically and abroad.
Jimmy Carter would be proud.
Should we talk about the Arab Spring?
Good times.
