Top Saudi official: Barack Obama lied, set Middle East back 20 years

50

The spread of evil is the symptom of a vacuum. Whenever evil wins, it is only by default: by the moral failure of those who evade the fact that there can be no compromise on basic principles (Ayn Rand). Barack Hussein Obama, while he was President, compromised on every basic principle of freedom and defense of liberty. That’s why the Middle East descended into chaos so far and so fast, while Obama was boasting, “Al Qaeda is on the run!” I warned of this in my book, The Post-American Presidency: The Obama Administration’s War on America. If my warnings had been heeded, we could at least have been spared four years of that disastrous presidency.

“Top Saudi official: Barack Obama lied, set Middle East back 20 years,” Jerusalem Post, January 28, 2019 (thanks to Mark):

Former US president Barack Obama lied to Saudi Arabia when violating the redlines he famously declared regarding Syria’s use of chemical weapons and then not acting when they were used, a former senior Saudi official said in an interview with Independent Arabia.

Story continues below advertisement

Bandar bin Sultan served for years as head of Saudi intelligence as well as the Saudi ambassador to the United States. In the interview, he recalled a last phone call between the late Saudi King Abdullah and Obama, during which the Saudi leader told the US president: “I did not expect that [after] this long life, I would see [the day] when an American president lies to me.”

Obama, bin Sultan said, “would promise something and do the opposite.” He said that the president took the Middle East back 20 years and also spoke critically of the Iran nuclear deal and how the former president spoke publicly about curbing Iran’s activities, but then went behind Saudi Arabia’s back and negotiated the nuclear deal.

These policies by Obama, he said, emboldened Russia and Iran and paved the way for them to enter Syria and interfere in the civil war that has raged there since 2011.

Syrian President Bashar Assad, he said, was a “kid” and that while his late father Hafez was capable of making decisions, Bashar could not.

Regarding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, bin Sultan said that the late Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat committed a “crime” against his people by rejecting the peace plan proposed by former president Bill Clinton….

The Middle-East must be freed from Muhammadist tyranny.
Just think: Today Africans are enslaved, castrated, divorced, beaten & killed in Saudi Arabia & enslaved in the UAE, Oman, Yemen, Kuwait, Lebanon, Bahrain, Iraq, North-Sudan, Libya (surge), Algeria (surge), Mauritania (20 percent), Niger, Mali, Somalia, Nigeria in emulation of unjust Muhammad who started the global African slave-trade by saying his unproven deity had turned Africans black so Africans’ descendants would be slaves to Arabs & Turks (see Wikiislam).

Obama not only set the Middle East back twenty years, but he also set America back more. He was and remains intent on bolstering, worldwide Islam but the utter collapse of America and the West. I am hardly an advocate of the Saudi Regime, but this man’s words are factual.

The Democrats continue doing Obama’s bidding by continuing his nefarious objective, the downfall of this Constitutional Republic followed by the upsurging of Islam and despotism.

Agreed. He set race relations back a full 50 years.

And simply by shooting off his mouth with irresponsible remarks, he started the war on cops. Remember his saying the Hartford cops “acted stupidly” or that crack about an imaginary son in the Trayvon Martin justifiable homicide case?

I will never forget or forgive Obama’s racist, anti-cop regurgitation; yet, these bastards, the Left, dare call Trump a racist. Nothing stokes my hatred for that man, Obama, for his hateful platitudinous words demonizing law enforcement and his perverse skewing of history regarding we, the slave driving Whites.

I will stop now, or I will blow a heart-valve or perhaps bore you to death, Drew.

It is well-known the incredible damage the Negro not only has done to his anus but to this country and the hole world. We may lose our next war because of the waycist Negro. The damage he has done is near irreparable. Yet people still adore the fly-laden Negro and yes, believe in “all hail the Negro”.

You’ll never get along with Negroes and wish white people would stop trying. The sodomite is proof of this. We handed the keys over to the Negro and all he did was wreck this country at every opportunity when he wasn’t with Reggie.

I do not understand why the Negro is free to mouth-off and get paid for it. 535 Congogressmen + 1 sodomite Negro should be in jail. The key players HANGED. Possibly including the Negro.

BTW, very few of his kind get it politically. There are many nice Negroes and totally agree, but I often wonder who they vote for?

I know the few that get it will never vote for obama or his ilk. I can count on them as friends.

The term “Arab Spring” was first cooked up in the Obama State Department, under Hillary Clinton and promoted by the Mainstream Media. It can now be seen as, basically, an excuse to arm and empower America’s enemies. This is commonly called ‘Treason’.

Obama did rockstar politics for 8 years. Did a show pretending that all went well in the world, capitalized on CIA’s work of taking out Bin laden, but still said worst crap than his predecessor or his sucessor, like “I’m not worried about ISIS”, shifting then his attention to global warming policies.
At the end of the day, he had a economy screwed up, and ISIS still alive and well.He did his globalist share, by importing terrorists through mass migration. And of course, he tried real socialism, never tried before, with obamacare. In a sea of crap, dealing with the Castro bros was actually the least bad thing he did.
Negotiating fiascos with a terrorist sponsor nation was the final blow.
No wonder that Trump had true president honors when visiting Russia and the middle east.

The sad part is that Obama and those who were in his administration continue to work against our country and continue to jack their jaws with nothing but hate. Obama did his best to set race relations back 100 years. Thankfully, a majority of citizens have seen his treachery and are solving the problems he created.

We will find out more and more, as times goes by, how destructive and incompetent b.obama
was as a “president”. He betrayed every American that voted for him and will go down in
history as the MOST INCOMPETENT AND DISHONEST White House occupier ever!!!
He did NOT accomplish ANYTHING in college. As a matter of fact it is difficult to find
any proof of his participation in studies there. He just “passed through” with the help of
Affirmative Action. This Affirmative Action Law hurts minorities, especially Blacks.
No-one believes that minorities accomplishes anything on their own, and that is
something that hurts accomplished and well-deserving, hardworking, intelligent
achieving minority students.

Americans cannot fathom the treachery and deceit that is ingrained in the moslem. Their lifelong study from the koran instills insanity. The obama was one of the greatest warriors for islam in history and used the power and prestige of the USA to advanced islam over a 1000 years in their desire to conquer the world.
Around 1988 the saudi king , in an arabic broadcast, boasted he would place a muslim in the american White House in 2008. He then proceeded to corrupt almost every Senator and Congressman to assure Huessein O would be made president and that is why they are so rabidly fighting President Trump today. They all know they are guilty of treason.

Obama always lied in order to set the stage for America to collapse. I’m not surprised but thankful that there are courageous officials willing to tell the truth about OBAMA! Hussein did more damage to America than the Russians have of late. In fact Barrack did more to help Russia and Iran than America. Unfortunately, the ignorant Americans who voted him President for two terms are complicit with Obama’s treasonous acts. Lieing is the Muslim way of life!

Very strange that this article was written with no mention of the 8000 # gorilla in the room. It is known now that Barack Obama, with the cooperation of John McCain, the CIA and other Congress members, actually created ISIS, in Syria, when they armed and trained the “good rebel’s” to fight Assad. That would be the same rebels, who, in 2012, renamed themselves ISIS and started attacking all their middle-eastern neighbors with their new American tanks, guns and trucks

This information was exposed in 2012 and forced Obama to switch sides in the Syrian war, right before the election, by saying he would now have America fight against the very same rebels, (defacto on Assad’s side).

It was a move of the moment and he probably would have switched back again, when the pre-election story quieted down but then pesky old Putin entered the game, allied with Assad and Obama was locked in to the opposite result of what he was trying to do.

It was, in fact the first time that Obama committed outright treason, when he armed and trained the very people whom our troops were facing on the field of battle and still are, today! The media covered for him, as they usually did and obfuscated the story, until the public lost interest. No one seemed to notice that Obama was now fighting on Assad’s side.

From his first moment in office until his last, This man was trying to bring America down but the people, ignorantly, elected him…twice. Not exactly our proudest moment as a nation…
