Learning history, and spurning history

As Obama’s team continues their anti-Netanyahu/pro-Iran diatribe, it’s striking to see the contrast of those who learn from history…and those who spurn its lessons.

70 years after the Holocaust, is it any wonder that an Israeli people are cautious?

It begs the question: why is it so hard for Obama to understand? Would he, after 50 years, urge his black-American community to go back to a pre-Civil Rights era? No.

Yet, those ’60’s black Americans were suffering segregation…not being slaughtered on a scale of millions per year like the Jews in Nazi-controlled Europe.

Liberal outrage over an Israeli Prime Minister staunchly defending his country from another Holocaust rings hollow, and suggests anti-Semitism drives their argument…

…not diplomacy.

What other motive could there be for those who shrug off such historic atrocity?

Obama would have the world trust a nation that has proven itself unworthy time and again, while distrusting a nation built on the sorrows of a global blind eye to evil.

It begs another question…

On issue after issue, on foreign policy he’s chosen a ‘lead-from-behind’ strategy.

Why has he, now, chosen enabling a nuclear Iran as a lead-from-the-front issue?
