Obama's failed Middle East policy and lashing out at Israel

Washington Examiner Editorial:
Obama's assault on Israel is a moral outrage
This administration cannot even get the basics of negotiation down.  They seem to have a blind spot when it comes to Israel's interest.  When they have pushed Israel into concessions those have resulted in helping its enemies kill Israelis.  One example is the pressure Obama and Clinton put on Israel to allow concrete into the Gaza strip which was in turn used to build the terror tunnels.  The administration will not even admit to it being a flawed policy, so why should Israel listen to them whine about building houses for their people in Jerusalem.  The Palestinians have no historical or legitimate claim to Jerusalem anyway.

In addition to being poor negotiators, this administration now engages in juvenile name calling to vent its frustration with its failure to persuade Israel to do something against its interest.  I agree with the Israelis that what Obama wants them to do is not in their interest and will only help those bent on their destruction.  Why does the administration think Hamas can be trusted?  They are a genocidal death cult bent on Israeli destruction.  They cheer murderous terror attacks against non combatants.  For the US to side with them is utterly ridiculous.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t...

Is the F-35 obsolete?

Headline USA: Pentagon Fires Back after Musk Calls Its Most Expensive Project ‘Obsolete’ 'Yeah, as I'm sure you can appreciate, Mr. Musk is, currently, a private citizen, I'm not going to make any comments about what a private citizen may have to say about the F-35....'   ... ... Drones appear to be replacing jets for many operations.  The Russia-Ukraine war is an example of that.  Drones are often hard to detect and can be used for intelligence operations as well as for attacking enemy targets.  It would not surprise me to see drones engaging other drones in combat.  They also cost much less than manned fighters.
