“Jaws dropped” around the studio, said the Channel 10 News diplomatic commentator Ben Caspit, as news broke of Obama’s declared empathy for Russian President Vladimir Putin’s decision to supply Tehran with the S-300 missile defense system.
President Obama has continued defending the lifting of sanctions against Iran. He’s also come out in defense of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s decision to supply Tehran with the S-300 missile defense system.
One can understand how Mr. Obama’s ideology operates. He has always sympathized with Iran and had made early overtures to Russia. To understand Obama one has to look at his ideological upbringing. He is able to defend Iran’s desire for a missile defense system because every nation has a right to defend itself. Furthermore, he can point to Israel and argue that it has threatened to attack Iran because of its nuclear program.
Yet as we have pointed out, the Iranian regime has shown itself to be a dangerous aggressor. It has threatened Israel with annihilation and has facilitated Israel’s enemies. But these facts have no place in Mr. Obama’s worldview. As Caspit noted:
“This is the new America. We had better get used to it.”
