His speech razed facts to the ground in a fashion […]
Trump appoints the right team to regain the Middle East
December 28, 2016 by
The Trump administration is dedicated to undoing the harm done by the Obama administration in the Iran Deal. To succeed, it needs the right team.

December 14, 2016 by
The United States’ stature as a leading global power in the Middle East has eroded in recent years.

Hillary vows ‘we will raise taxes on the middle class’
August 5, 2016 by
The Hillary campaign will obviously say she “misspoke” and meant to say something else – either that she would raise taxes on the “super rich” or that she would cut taxes on the middle class. Come on, they’ll say. You can’t really think that’s what she meant. And no. I don’t. That is, I don’t […]

Obama’s Middle East Policies Dictated by Phony Iran Deal
January 12, 2016 by
The Obama administration continues to capitulate to Iran’s demands in order to ensure that an unworkable, unsigned international agreement somehow restrains that regime’s quest for nuclear weapons. The media are also working overtime to make sure that Obama’s White House isn’t embarrassed by its repeated concessions to Iran. “Hours after circulating a draft of proposed […]

OBAMACARE: Proof That Democrats Will Tax the Middle Class
October 17, 2015 by
At the first Democratic presidential debate, candidates promised to expand government benefits — from tuition-free college to paid maternity leave programs. How to pay for these new benefits? Simple, they say, just tax the wealthy. That idea may be a winner with the Democrats’ base, but the problem is that the math simply doesn’t work. […]
Who Will Save Middle East Christians: Obama or Putin?
October 6, 2015 by
Few Western foreign policy analysts have taken seriously Vladimir Putin’s radical reorientation of Russia from communism back to Russian Orthodox Christianity. Putin is perhaps uniquely qualified to discern that his nation’s identity has been for centuries within a spiritual, distinctly Christian narrative and that a violent rending of Russia’s historically religious roots led to utter […]

Obama’s Middle East Debacle
May 13, 2015 by
I had to laugh when I heard that the new King of Saudi Arabia, Salmon, told the White House he wasn’t going to attend Thursday’s photo-op get together of Arab leaders. Some lesser Saudi officials will attend. The message is clear enough, so long as Obama continues to make nice with Iran, the center of […]
