Even the European press recognize the Obamas’ first 100 days marker as rife with broken promises, crippling debt and bizarre and dangerous domestic and foreign policy, yet that’s not the message you’ll hear from the fawning orgiastic American Establishment Media for the next several days. — You will also likely not hear a peep about Roxana Saberi, Laura Ling and Euna Lee. They’re too much an an inconvenient truth.
Roxana, Laura and Euna. All three American journalists, all women of color, who languish as hostages in foreign prisons of state-based terrorists.
When you abandon Americans held by terrorists, and then reward terrorists who trained with Al Qaeda, some might argue it’s more than priorities that are screwed-up in the White House.
You may be most familiar with Roxana’s name. She is the American journalist who was kidnapped and is being held hostage by the Iranian regime. Fortunately for her, her plight, at least, has received worldwide attention.
Iranian tyrants first arrested Saberi on a charge of buying wine, then changed it to not having the proper press credentials, and finally to spying. Make no mistake, Saberi’s situation is not one of “arrest” or “conviction,” this is a terrorist nation which has grabbed another American and is holding her hostage.
But Roxana is not the only American journalist (and woman of color) who is held hostage by a terrorist nation. Laura Ling and Euna Lee were kidnapped by North Korean forces and have been held by that terrorist nation since March. Taking Iran’s cue, and seeing a typically “pantywaisted” response from the Obama administration, North Korea has announced they have charged the American women with ‘unspecified crimes’ and will try them.
Oh, don’t get me wrong, Obama is very much concerned with people locked up in prisons-specifically Islamist terrorists we’ve secured at Guantanamo Bay. Someone should mention to “Barry” that Bad Guys are supposed to remain in custody while innocent American journalists are the ones who are supposed to get government-wide advocacy, massive media attention, and the fixation of the American president.
