As the Iranian government’s murderous repression of the Iranian people continues, critics right and left agitate over the deafening silence of an American president who, as a candidate, derided the Bush administration’s ambitious democracy promotion as too timid. They speculate as to why Barack Obama won’t speak out: Why won’t he condemn the mullahs? Is he daft enough to believe he can charm the regime into abandoning its nuclear ambitions? Does the self-described realist so prize stability that he thinks it’s worth abandoning the cause of freedom — and the best chance in 30 years of dislodging an implacable American enemy?
In truth, it’s worse than that. Even as the mullahs are terrorizing the Iranian people, the Obama administration is negotiating with an Iranian-backed terrorist organization and abandoning the American proscription against exchanging terrorist prisoners for hostages kidnapped by terrorists. Worse still, Obama has already released a terrorist responsible for the brutal murders of five American soldiers in exchange for the remains of two deceased British hostages.
Prepare to be infuriated.

On Jan. 20, 2007, five American soldiers were killed and three seriously wounded in Iraq. As Bill Roggio relates at the Long War Journal, it was a daring operation: a twelve-man terrorist team disguised as U.S. servicemen attacked our troops as they held a previously arranged meeting with local officials in Karbala. Four of the soldiers were alive when they were abducted from the scene. They were handcuffed and murdered in a remote location when the coalition forces attempting to rescue them closed in.

Maybe no one remembers those soldiers but I do. They were the ones whose bodies were mutilated and then booby-trapped so that when our forces found them, they would (the terrorists hoped) be killed trying to retrieve them. May those terrorist bastards rot in everlasting hell. I am beyond angry here. Does anybody GET THIS? OBAMA arranged for the release of someone who took part in KILLING AND MUTILATING OUR SOLDIERS! Does no one CARE? Is no one else pissed off about this but ME? And those soldiers' families??? When does it matter to anyone? When it's finally someone in YOUR family? Your brother, your husband, your father? Will it matter then?
I want to give some serious props to MY SENATOR, Jeff Sessions of Alabama, and Senator Jon Kyl of Arizona for questioning Obama about this. I have to say, with every passing day, I am more impressed with Senator Sessions. If it's anyone I can count on to stand up for our military, it's him. Thank you, Senator Sessions! A Conservative Republican with some guts!
Tonight, the blood of those 5 soldiers cries out..."Why have you betrayed us? Do we matter so little to you? Were our lives so insignificant?" NO! They were not numbers, not statistics... they were honorable men and the so-called commander in chief at present has BETRAYED THEM by allowing the lowest scum of the earth who participated in their grisly deaths to go FREE. Americans, THESE WERE YOUR BROTHERS! Stop ignoring the truth that's staring you in the face, and stop being blinded by the artificial glow surrounding "The One" for just 5 seconds and RECOGNIZE what he's done!
This is an outrage. I hope anyone who voted for this "historic" president remembers this come November 2012. I didn't vote for him but believe me, I'll remember it.
