President Obama has made it a point to visit several countries in the Middle East in the first months of his presidency. That is all well and good as long as he remembers who our strongest and most dedicated ally in the Middle East is. ISRAEL! I think it is a mistake for him to stand on soil of other Mid East countries and take Israel to the woodshed. The United States of America is disliked by many countries around this world and it does not hurt to try and be at peace with them as long as they will do the same toward our country. Yet Israel, with out a doubt, would be there to help the U.S. if and when we need them. It is not the place of an elected official with the title of President, to explain to the rest of the world that America has been an arrogant nation. That is wrong in my opinion.
Today marks the 65Th anniversary of D-Day when nearly ten thousand of our brave soldiers gave both life and limb to help save and free people they had never meet before. As I write this, there are many men and women giving freely of their service to our nation. For this, we should be thankful and respectful. As our President stood in Egypt speaking of his, (President Obama) Muslim roots this week, the soldiers who stormed the beaches of Normandy lay in graves marked with a cross. As the bible says, St. John 15 v. 13: "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends". Those soldiers truly proved their friendship to the Nation's of this world.
