Good News: Americans Get Iran! Bad News: Washington Doesn't.

The details:

A fascinating new poll by McLaughlin & Associates finds Americans are deeply and overwhelming concerned about the rising Iranian nuclear threat both to the U.S. and to Israel, and deeply concerned about the potential for Radical Islamic terrorists to acquire nuclear weapons from Iran. The poll also suggests the Obama administration's apparent strategy of backing away from a full-fledged alliance with Israel — and strategy to pressure Israel to make unwise territorial concessions and potentially not defend herself from the Iran threat — could backfire politically, both for the White House and for Members of Congress who sign on to the President's approach. Excerpts:

• Nine in ten voters (91%) say that Iran supplying a nuclear umbrella for terrorists is a serious threat to the United States
• Seven in ten voters (71%) say the United States will not be safe with a nuclear Iran
• Eight in ten voters (80%) say it is likely that Iran will launch a missile attack on Israel
• Three in four voters (77%) say it is likely that Iran will use the threat of nuclear attack to provide a shield for Hezbollah and Hamas terrorists to attack Israel
• The majority of voters approves of taking several specific actions to discourage the  proliferation of nuclear weapons in Iran

Unfortunately, Barack Obama keeps chasing Mahmoud Ahmadinejad around with a Snuggie, insisting that he put it on and cuddle up.  Good foreign policy, Mr. President.

In related news, Joel Rosenberg reports that Obama also thinks it's a good idea to divide Jerusalem:

I'm horrified by reports this morning that in his June 4th speech in Cairo, President Obama will say it is time to divide Jerusalem and make the holy city the capital of a Palestinian state.

No, Mr. President, it is not.

Jerusalem is and should be the eternal, undivided capital of the Jewish people and the Jewish state. Dividing Jerusalem will not make peace. Rather, it would send a message to every Radical Islamic jihadist around the world that Israel is weak, that the Jews won't even defend the sovereignty of their own capital, that there is "blood in the water," and that it is time to strike Israel and wipe her off the map. Dividing Jerusalem would trigger an apocalyptic war in the Middle East the likes of which the region has never seen. Already, the Radicals believe Israel is doomed to destruction. Hearing that the American President is now ready to apply intense pressure against the Israelis to divide their capital will only embolden the Radicals and convince them further that Allah is on their side, the wind is at their back, and they will soon triumph over the Jews and Christians.

While I am not surprised by where the President is headed, I am horrified nonetheless. Right at the moment when the U.S. and Israel need to be working with Arab states in unity against the Iranian nuclear threat, this White House is systematically turning against Israel. Despite all the smiles and boilerplate rhetoric from senior administration officials over the last few days that Prime Minister Netanyahu has been in town — promising to stand with Israel and maintain her security — what the administration is actually advancing in terms of policy is dangerous and destabilizing. They are playing with fire, and they must be publicly and peaceably challenged and resisted.

I think that we can now safely assume that Barack Obama will do literally the opposite of what he should in every instance.  The thing that galls me is that he gets away with it.  That's where you and I come in...we need to be telling people about what's going on in the world today.  Grass roots education is far more powerful that big media indoctrination if it is engaged, informed, and accurate.  Stand up for the truth, and pass the word.  This President must be stopped before the 're-making' of America becomes the 'un-doing' of America.

There's my two cents.
