from Rubin Reports:<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton\u2019s speech justifying Obama Administration Middle East policy changes everything. True, it isn\u2019t surprising. I\u2019ve been writing for almost three years about how the current U.S. government thinks this way.<\/p>\n

Do not underestimate this speech\u2019s importance. It isn\u2019t a reluctant acceptance that Islamists might win elections and take over countries. It is an enthusiastic endorsement of that idea.<\/p>\n

But now there can be no doubt that Obama\u2019s Middle East policy is engaged in what might be the biggest blunder in the history of U.S. foreign policy. Millions of people will bemoan it as delivering their countries into the grip of repressive dictatorships.<\/p>\n

The speech can be summarized as follows:<\/p>\n

Islamist regimes\u2014at least those whose \u201cbehavior\u201d is proper\u2013are good. If Islamists exercise political power they will be moderate. Thus, the United States will not merely tolerate but will actually support Islamists taking power. Click here<\/a> to continue reading.<\/p>\n
