President Obama did what President Carter could not do.
He acknowledged the Iranian Government and he will now get our hostages back.

A Walk With MLK-My proudest day.
One bright morning when I was a 12 year old boy living in Sandy Springs GA, my mother June announced to my younger brother and sister and me that we weren't going to school that day. She told us to dress nice and get in the car. We only found out as we were leaving the house that we were going to march in Martin Luther King's funeral procession.
It was a short quiet drive. I don't care for crowds and I was worried that this was going to be a long hard sermon to listen to, but I knew we were doing the right thing. We had mostly grown up in the poorer parts of various southern towns and we were used to both colors of people sharing the streets, but this was an amazing feeling to be the only people of one color we saw in such a large crowd. I wasn't surprised at how warm and comfortable it felt. And I realized immediately what a good idea Momma had to come there.
The entire walk and service seem like a beautiful, if melancholy dream. Never had we felt such an outpouring of peace and goodwill through such sadness. All of us have shared our memories over the years, many times. The whole event passed like a song, but midway through my younger brother, only 8, began fidgeting, being so short he was staring at people's stomachs and bored. Then slowly and quietly, without a word, a tall strong man standing behind Steve reached down and picked him up over his head and gently placed him on his shoulders so he could see. Steve was quietly mesmerized and still says it was the most amazing experience he ever had to be lifted up over the crowd and to watch the whole panorama from his private box.
It was a small piece of heaven on earth that the reverend brought to all of us there that day. My mother and sister and brother and I all agree that was all of our proudest day. Not for anything we've done to help with King's cause, but what we did for ourselves by being there. It changed us. It was a religious experience.
When I see pictures of the good doctor and his statue on the mall, he is very real to me. He is still alive, I'm sure of it.
And I wouldn't be at all surprised if he came back one bright morning.
God bless

ReplyDeleteWhy didn't he get them in exchange for giving the Iranians everything they wanted?
The only way Iran will release the hostages is if the US government pays ransom. They have absolutely no reason to do anything Obama wants. Iran wants war with Israel and Sunni's. That's it. That's what their driving force is. They want war to bring the Twelfth Imam.
Remember, Obama had the chance to support revolution in Iran in early 2009. He declined.
He supports the regime and supports their call to vaporize Israel.
Unless you understand that one of the driving forces in the left's ideology is a hatred of Israel, Judaism and Christianity you will always fail to understand what they're doing.. During his entire presidency Obama has sided with those who want to exterminate Christians and Jews.
He refuses to arm the Kurds, refuses to do anything against ISIS except annoying strikes that do nothing, he ignores the mass slaughter of Christians in the Middle East and Africa, he supports the elimination of Israel and the left is constantly trying to diminish Christianity in the US while allowing millions of Muslims into the US.
Wake the hell up. Obama is not your friend. He hates you. He hates the United States.
