Iran is set to become the “alpha dog” – the dominant power – in the Middle East, according to a Fox News analyst.
As the United States relaxes sanctions against Iran in the wakeof the agreement Tehran signed with Western powers, in which it promised to somewhat limit its nuclear development program, Iran’s economy has gotten a major boost – without a commitment by the country to stop its production of enriched uranium.
As a result, said McFarland, Iran gets to “dance at both weddings” – improving its economy with the removal of sanctions, and continuing its nucleardevelopment program. This, in turn, enhances the image of Iran’s hardline Islamist leaders among its people, and guarantees that they will be emboldened to demand more special treatment in the future, she said.
“The deal with the Persian nation makes it clear we are leaving the region, and leaving Iran in charge,” McFarland wrote. “Iran is now poised to become the Alpha Dog of the Middle East – the dominant economic, military and political power in the region that controls the world’s exported oil. Thanks to the agreement struck by President Obama’s hand-picked Secretary of State John Kerry, it is doing so with America’s blessing.”
With the extra money coming in from oil sales that will be resumed, she said, Iran’s coffers will soon be plump enough to resume funding for terrorist groups throughout the region.” In addition, “Iran’s nuclear program will continue and its neighbors will treat Iran as a de facto nuclear weapons state,” she wrote.
The Iran deal is just one of many foreign policy blunders by the White House, McFarland wrote, citing examples such as the opposition of President Obama to President Bush’s Iraq war surge, which she said has led to a near-takeover of Iraq by militant Islamists.
“Here’s my prediction,” she added ominously. “The agreement with Iran will be hailed as a breakthrough. But then, so was Neville Chamberlain’s deal with Adolf Hitler in Munich….at least for a little while.
The real goal: Weakening America and in particular White America and the whole Western world to the benefit of the Muslim world. That is why the presence of Al-Sissi in Egypt is a major Obama administration failure. America is already on a losing path in the Pacific, tks to Pr. O too. Or is this all about US protectionism.
Who’s to say these are blunders rather than being the administration’s objective?
At least Chamberlain had honorable motives and really little choice as at the time Britain did not have adequate forces to defeat Hitler.
Neither motive nor ability apply to Obama’s deliberate malfeasance.
