Obama's immoral reset button

At Thursday night's state dinner in Washington, a groveling British Prime Minister, David Cameron, said that President Obama had ‘pressed the reset button on the moral authority of the entire free world’. Melanie Phillips looks at some of the ways in which Obama has done so. She comes up with quite a lengthy list, including the following:
  • Neutered American power abroad and extended the reach of the state at home
  • Appeased Iran while dumping on its designated target of annihilation, Israel
  • Appeased the Palestinians while dumping on the state they vow to destroy, Israel
  • Given Iran time to bring its genocide nuclear bomb to fruition
  • Helped consolidate in power the repressive and murderous Iranian regime by ignoring the plight of its political dissidents, women, gays and other victims of Iranian state terror
  • Allowed Iran to become the regional hegemon, thus in turn pushing moderate Arab states into its arms
  • Empowered the fanatical Islamist Muslim Brotherhood throughout the Arab world
  • Helped bring to power a regime in Egypt which is oppressive to its own people and hostile to Israel and the west
Melanie points out that Cameron's speech says a lot about David Cameron as well. Perhaps, Cameron should offer Obama a bust of Neville Chamberlain to replace the one of Winston Churchill that he sent back to England early in his Presidency.
