Obama mocked by Kuwaitis, ‘Obama we’re all Osama.’ bin Laden may be dead but so are Amb. Stevens, 3 other Americans working on Obama’s behalf, and 13 murdered on American soil at Ft. Hood by an Islamic killer. To protect Obama’s precious image, he’s calling Ft. Hood massacre of 13 soldiers who reported to him ‘workplace violence’

9/19/11, Zogby Poll: A recent Zogby poll in six Arab countries found Obama has driven anti-American sentiment even higher than it was under George Bush. (parag. 25 in article), 9/19/11, “How Obama’s destabilizing the world” Salon.com, Nick Turse. Obama’s foreign policy “seems certain to make the world more volatile and put American citizens at greater risk.”

Egypt’s Morsi said “We took our time” tending to the breach of the US Embassy in Egypt on 9/11/12: “And he (Egypt’s President Morsi) dismissed criticism from the White House that he did not move fast enough to condemn protesters who recently climbed over the United States Embassy wall and burned the American flag….“We took our time” in responding to avoid an explosive backlash, he said, but then dealt “decisively” with the small, violent element among the demonstrators.”…

10/21/12, Killing bin Laden is not a foreign policy, Washington Examiner

“Osama bin Laden is dead, but President Obama is determined not to let him rest. The bearded terrorist who once led al Qaeda has become, for Obama and his surrogates, a bumper-sticker slogan to be trotted out at campaign events — a symbol of the supposed success of his administration’s foreign policy.

“Osama bin Laden is dead, General Motors is alive,” is how Vice President Biden put it at the Democratic convention….

On ABC’s “This Week,” former White House green jobs czar Van Jones called his old boss a “towering figure in foreign policy: You’ve got somebody with a Nobel Peace Prize and he killed bin Laden.” The administration has also leaked details of the raid and cooperated in the making of a Hollywood movie on the raid that is due later this year….
 
And frankly, getting bin Laden shouldn’t have been the focus of America’s anti-terror policy anyway. America’s eye has been off the ball while far more important events transpired in the Arab world. The Arab Spring is being hijacked by increasingly radical and anti-American actors. The Arab world continues to hate America as much as it ever did, despite Obama’s outreach efforts, which have at times approached the level of groveling. Unlike bin Laden, al Qaeda is very much still alive. It is not on its heels, on the run, or on the ropes, as developments in Afghanistan and elsewhere prove. Yes, bin Laden is dead, but so is Ambassador Chris Stevens, killed at the hands of bin Laden’s followers.”…
