Clarity for the West, coming from the East.

This is what it has come to.

The most documented horror in all of human history, one our own nation paid a dear price to help stop, must in 2009 be "proven" to member states of the UN.

The idea that Benjamin Netenyahu even felt it NECESSARY to do this is a disturbing indictment of not just the Iranian government, but of the institution that would give its' words quarter.

America, let me ask you something ... whom have we voted into office? Our president seeks to sit down with the Iranian Holocaust denier, makes gestures towards and "accepts books" from despots such as Chavez, and defends usurpers of the Honduras democratic rule of law all while causing champagne corks to pop in Moscow by leaving Poland twisting in the Eastern European wind. Yet he sends back a bust of Winston Churchill to Gordon Brown, and scolds Israeli settlement actions as "illegitimate", equating the act of building schools to blowing them up. Shunning our 2 closest allies while embracing international thugs that have no place in the community of free men, dear God people - what side of history do we find ourselves on in 2009? How will we be judged by subsequent generations if we do not correct the course our national ship is on?

Now it is true that dozens of nations, led by France, walked out on Ahmedadenajad's lunacy in protest. Among them was the United States delegation (although I don't know why it was France and not we that lead); however, simply "walking out" is not enough. Evil must be called out in clear, plain language. The words must be spoken - "there evil stands" in order to be properly confronted. And ultimately actions must be taken if no other remedy is found effective. Does anyone believe that at present the US has the constitution to do this? I find this man, Benjamen Netanyahu, alone on the world stage as the only voice of moral clarity, of appropriate indignation possessing the fortitude of character necessary to call out the evil of his time. The thought of Iran possessing nuclear weapons conjures up the hair raising image in my mind of a lone Israeli prime minister standing along the Rhine ... screaming that we must act now, not later.

I urge you to watch the video at the link provided: "Have you no shame?" There are 3 parts, each as compelling as the last. And as you listen ask yourself, how did we come to a place in time that this defense, this speech, became necessary?
