Inhofe: Obama Embraces ‘The Ones Who Want To Kill Us’
Inhofe’s latest theory — that President Obama’s 2009 decision to shift missile defense from land to sea is evidence that Obama is “going out of his way to embrace … the ones who want to kill us” — is equally ridiculous. Here’s the exchange from his interview yesterday with Hugh Hewitt:
JI: And that was just trying to embrace that group of people. And I think his, one of his major concerns is what’s happening in Iran. Netanyahu is very familiar with what they are willing to do, what they are going to do. And yet, this administration, if you remember, he was the one who brought down the ground-based Interceptor that would have protected the United States and Western Europe from something coming from Iran. So it’s not just the lines that are drawn. It’s going out of his way to embrace that whole element.
HH: That radical Islamist element is what I think you’re talking about that is…
JI: Oh yeah. They’re the ones who want to kill us. I mean, you know, to think that they would even embrace the idea that they would have that element, with Hamas tied in with the Palestinians, Hamas who are doing everything they can to destroy Israel.
Liar.
