| Netanyahu Advises Obama On Iraq: ‘When Your Enemies Are Fighting Each Other, Weaken Both’ |
| 2014-06-23 |
| [Daily Caller] Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu expressed his opposition to wide scale American intervention in the Iraq crisis, advising President Champ that “when your enemies are fighting one another, don’t strengthen either one of them. Weaken both.” What the Prime Minister fails to understand is that the Champ does not see either side as "enemies," but rather quarreling older siblings. |

| #10 The unwarranted assumption is that Obama actually sees all these folks, or any of these folks, as enemies. When your psychotic narcissism is such that you consider yourself the best at everything and people are not bowing down to you than you are fine with the idea of burning down the world. The only historical analog to Obama I can conjur is Nero. |

| #9 ...of course there will be thousands, if not tens of thousands of fatalities and millions of people oppressed, but after all, its Islam. Sounds a lot like most of 20th Century Europe as well. How'd all that "make the world safe for democracy" work out Woodrow? Notice how as we disengaging, things are returning to the fratricidal and authoritarian 'normal' again. There were reasons our forefathers left or were thrown out of the place to begin with. Pax Americana is indeed receding. Enjoy participating in the real patterns of history. |

| #7 My greatest concern is that a charismatic leader will emerge with the capability to "settle" the Sunni / Shia divisions. If that happens, we have, at present time, no leadership capable of stopping them. |

| #6 As 300 troops are being sent to Iraq, Iraq's military is now out of ammunition. As the world becomes unstable, even in the US as tens of thousands of illegals pour into the US across our now non-existent borders, any thing unexpected can and will happen in a moment. |
