Even the Very Liberal Media (US Today) sees serious problems with the Obama Middle East strategy.


<<<<<<    Signs showing deep dissatisfaction with Obama,  line many of the streets in Israel.  

The rest of this story is found in the  not-so-Compliant Media.  

In negative summary article of Obama’s Middle East policy,  found in the very liberal US Today,  we have  the following headline and news excerpts:


U.S is now less popular in the region than at the end of the George W. Bush administration.

Despite downgrading the trip, many see Obama's arrival as the sequel to his 2009 visit to Cairo, where he announced a "new beginning" with the Muslim world. Four years later, that doesn't auger well for renewed efforts in Israel and the West Bank. According to the latest survey by the Pew Research Center's Global Attitudes Project, confidence in Obama in Muslim countries dropped from 33% to 24% in his first term. Approval of Obama's policies declined even further, from 34% to 15%. And support for the United States in Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon and Pakistan is lower today than it was in 2008 in the closing year of George W. Bush's administration. That collapse of support has not happened elsewhere.
You know that Obama is in trouble with his own Leftist Media,  when the comparison to Bush,  makes Bush look good,  and that is exactly what is happening in the Compliant Media  . . . . .   just in time for the coming 2014 midterm elections.  US Today continues with this comparison: 

President Obama's first journey to Israel as president comes amid earth-shattering change in Middle East, much of it for the worse. The Arab Spring, which once raised hopes of freedom and dignity, has diverged onto the dark path of Islamist authoritarian rule. In Syria, tens of thousands of people have died in a bitter civil war that might have recently seen its first use of chemical weapons. And Iran continues its march toward nuclear weapons capability, heedless of international condemnation. Obama's effort to seek peace between Palestinians and Israelis is in tatters.
In the end,  the socialist One Worlders at US Today,  are having to admit to the dismal and convoluted foreign “policy”  of their current leader,  a man who came out of Harvard with nothing but untested Utopian ideals and the political maturity of a nat.
