“Shots fired in Dallas” is a sad reminder to the assassination of Jack Kennedy, a man who offered real hope. The backdrop to the shots that were fired in Dallas last week was a reminder of the growing anger and despair across America.
So ruinous has President Barack Obama’s presidency been that he has blood on his hands. If his loyal liberals continue his policies of excusing black people while incriminating police, the nation will find itself caught up in a race war.
The similarities I see between my time in South Africa in 1990 and in America today are startling. White police seemed to be on a razor’s edge in South Africa, and with good reason; Nelson Mandela was being released from prison and nobody was sure of the kind of government he would form. There was widespread worry among whites that South Africa would become another blood-soaked Rhodesia.
To a large extent, a race war has occurred in South Africa but has been covered up by the international press. Since Nelson Mandela and the communist African National Congress (ANC) took over South Africa, more than 70,000 white people have been murdered and countless have been raped, robbed and tortured. This is a fact about a man that Obama called “the hero of the world.”
Little wonder Obama consistently sides with blacks and black protestors over law enforcement in the U.S. Without exception, Obama is silent on racism among black people as if it didn’t even exist.
Over the course of his eight years in office, Obama has stoked the fires of black anger while he attributes blame to whites. On Thursday the New York Post carried a story under the headline: “Obama’s false racism claims are putting cops’ lives in danger.”
Hours before the murders of five police officers in Dallas, Texas, President Obama was again spouting false claims about racism by the police. He sees racism whenever there is any disparity in outcomes, no matter what the cause.
Obama and others inflame passions, but take no responsibility, and instead use events to push for more gun control. Yet, shouting racism can endanger the lives of police officers. The Dallas police chief reports the shooter “wanted to kill white people, especially white officers.”
After the Trayvon Martin case, Obama personalized the event by saying Martin could have been his son. Since then there have been numerous cases around the country of blacks attacking whites and invoking Martin’s name.
Let’s not forget the NYPD cops Rafael Ramos and Wenjian Liu who were executed by a black man who was angry about the police shooting of Michael Brown nearly 1,000 miles away in Ferguson, Missouri. Obama was quick to blame police officer Darren Wilson in the death of Brown on August 9, 2014. It turned out that Obama had all his facts wrong, which helped propagate the “hands up” movement. The evidence and testimony found that Brown never did have his hands up in fact had tried to take Wilson’s gun.
But the facts rarely matter to Obama, as he first demonstrated with the Henry Louis Gates’ incident in Cambridge, Massachusetts, July 16, 2009. Gates became abusive to police who were following up a call from a neighbor over a possible break in. Obama once again butted into the discussion, making it a case over race.
One week later Obama said:
I don’t know, not having been there and not seeing all the facts, what role race played in that. But I think it’s fair to say, number one, any of us would be pretty angry; number two, that the Cambridge police acted stupidly in arresting somebody when there was already proof that they were in their own home, and, number three, what I think we know separate and apart from this incident is that there’s a long history in this country of African Americans and Latinos being stopped by law enforcement disproportionately.
Obama has an enemy to fight and it’s not white Americans. It is “radical Islamists” determined to slaughter Westerners. But Obama won’t even use those two words together. In some ways Obama is an apologist to Muslims and blacks.
Before al-Qaida massacred staff at the satirical French magazine Charlie Hebdo in January 2015, Obama’s press secretary Jay Carney warned the publication against running cartoons of Muhammad.
“We are aware that a French magazine published cartoons featuring a figure resembling the prophet Muhammad, and obviously we have questions about the judgment of publishing something like this,” said Carney in September 2012.
Not only was Carney making a criticism of the kind of freedoms provided by the 1st Amendment, but he was also focusing blame on the victims. It is almost as if the victims had it coming.
A terrible wartime leader
The only thing close to Obama’s failed domestic policies which incite violence is his foreign policies where he continually speaks of America’s victories in the face of defeat.
In Libya he failed to commit the U.S. ground forces, the eventual outcome of which was the attack on the American diplomatic compound in Benghazi on September 11, 2012. That attack killed four Americans including U.S. diplomat J. Christopher Stevens, the first ambassador to be killed in the line of duty since 1979. After U.S. military actions, Obama withdrew from Libya as he has over much of the Middle East, including Syria.
Obama stated: “We have been very clear to the Assad regime, but also to other players on the ground, that a red line for us is if we start seeing a ‘whole bunch’ of chemical weapons moving around or being utilized. That would change my calculus.”
I remember taking calculus, but for the life of me I can’t remember how many a bunch is. I am guessing a bunch is a lot, as in a lot of mistakes in Obama’s foreign and domestic policies.
Obama has an approval rating of 50 percent. After these past eight years half the people polled approve of the job he is doing. Who are these people?
Yours in good times and bad,
