Show Notes:
With every conservative now pushed out of this administration, it is essentially Obama’s third term on most aspects of foreign policy.
In this episode of “The Conservative Conscience,” we dissect the essence of this administration’s foreign policy and prove that Obama’s backward foreign policy priorities are continuing. We throw heavy resources down the drains of Islamic civil wars while refusing to use soft power where it is more effective. We are helping our enemies with our own military while alienating allies. We are threatening to cut off aid to Sisi in Egypt while continuing aid to Lebanese (Hezbollah) military and to UNRWA. We are doing more for Iran than it could possibly pay us for, yet we are doing it for free and with the lives and resources of our military.
At the same time, Trump is allying with Erdogan and abandoning the Kurds, while promoting the unreliable Afghani government. One could not possibly conjure up a more backward foreign policy. And as we demonstrate, the generals are a big part of the problem. Several of them are now in civilian leadership.
