Gates on Obama being on the wrong side

Former Secretary of Defense Robert Gates revealed something that most of us who don't worship Obama already know: our president supports the Muslim Brotherhood.

Gates spoke on Fox News (see video) and said, "Literally, the entire national security team recommended unanimously handling Mubarek differently than we did. And the president took the advice of three junior backbenchers in terms of how to treat Mubarek."

Actually, Obama didn't really "take the advice" [from three junior staff], he just used it to do what he would have done in the absence of the advice. The three backbenchers, as Gates referred to them, told Obama that he "needed to be on the right side of history." Obama used that phrase as his own, acting as if he could know the future, but when we look back at his decisions, it's obvious that he either has no idea of what he's doing, or if he does, he's on the wrong side of freedom and democracy.

The Egyptians themselves complained Barack was supporting terrorism, and of course, he was--the Muslim Brotherhood is a terrorist organization and it doesn't take a "Constitutional scholar" to know that. But it takes a Muslim Brotherhood sympathizer to deny it.

So Barack Hussein Obama went against the advice of everyone on his national security team and allowed the Egyptian coup to overthrow Mubarak. Gates believes the decision of the three stooges was based on idealism, not facts. It doesn't get any more liberal than that.

Obama 3.0 with Morsi

In Gates' interview, Brett Baier noted that once it was obvious Mubarak could not stay in power and the Egyptian military under al Sisi urged caution, Obama "pushed for his [Mubarak's] immediate removal." 

As bad as some say Mubarak was, he certainly was an ally and not as authoritarian as other Islamic theocracies. It was him who allowed our warships access to the Suez Canal and unrestricted rights to our military aircraft that helped maintain peace for Israel.

But like Israel, Obama has no allegiance to our allies. He only appears to align himself on the wrong side of history when Mohamed Morsi, a Muslim Brotherhood dictator, became president.

Morsi was overthrown by the people of Egypt in spite of Obama's love for the Muslim Brotherhood. They now drink tea at the White House.
