Last
year, Judson Phillips wrote in the Washington Times something apparent
to anyone politically astute. He said, "It is beyond debate that America has a
president who is cheering for and working for our enemies. We have a president
who wants to see nations that hate America and an ideology of evil triumph over
America as well as the Western values of freedom and liberty."
Now
the President has instructed his U.N. Ambassador not to veto a resolution
condemning our best friend of democracy in the middle-east for building
"settlements" on disputed lands. Yet the compromises Israel has made in the past
over such territories have not produced peace, but only emboldened her enemies
with more acts of terror.
A
two state solution? Twelve years after his death, the promise of Yasser Arafat
essentially remains the mantra of Palestinian leaders:
"We
plan to eliminate the state of Israel and establish a purely Palestinian state.
We will make life unbearable for Jews by psychological warfare and population
explosion. We Palestinians will take over everything, including all of
Jerusalem."
Columnist
CAL Thomas got it right in his own Washington Times op-ed Wednesday
when he noted, "The U.S. abstention will inevitably invite stepped-up attacks
against Israelis, as well as calls for more boycotts by the European Union,
whose ugly anti-Semitic past and present is well documented."
Someone
once wrote, "Don't fear the enemy that attacks you, but the fake friend that
hugs you."
There
is something fearfully wrong about President Obama. He has an affinity for those
who despise the children of Abraham, as well as spiritual Israel, the church of
Jesus Christ.
Why
is this?
Socialists,
like the President, whether consciously or subconsciously, find Judaism and
Christianity as primary obstacles to the collective objectives of the state.
Marxism rejects a spirit of independence separate from the state. It denies the
right to build a life based on one's own achievements, skill, creativity, and
labor. It has no authority higher than the state itself.
Judaism
and Christianity, however, declare just the opposite — that God's will and
incontrovertible law is the source of men's rights. These rights are
inalienable, not granted nor can they be taken by the government, and among them
is the right to life, liberty, and one's property.
This
even explains, in some degree, the president's favoritism toward Islamic
countries. Marxism sees all religious practice arising out of exploitation.
Religion is "the opiate of the people" — something used to deal with life's
oppressors.
Ben
Shapiro, political commentator and author, explains the connection well when he
writes:
"President
Obama believes, like many on the left, that Western civilization was founded in
racism, sexism, homophobia, and other bigotry — and that Christianity, as its
wellspring, provided that impetus ... Obama believes that Western civilization
has exploited the rest of the world, and that it, therefore, bears culpability
for the poverty that gave rise to the Islamic wave. Muslims are benighted
victims of poverty; Christianity made them victims of poverty in the first place
... As Dinesh D'Souza puts it, Obama is an anti-colonialist and believes "that
the rich countries got rich by looting the poor countries, and that within the
rich countries, plutocratic and corporate elites continue to exploit ordinary
citizens." Taken one step further, those rich countries — Christian countries —
exploited non-Christian countries, impoverishing them and opening them to the
opium of Islam."
The
President is genuinely no friend of Judeo-Christian teaching. He says he's a
friend. He even says that he's a Christian, but he treacherously knifes Israel
in the back — the same way he's been betraying and undermining a Christian
America.
