Tomorrow, the United States Senate will decide whether Chuck Hagel should be the next Secretary of Defense. If it does so, that job will go to a man who believes, among other things, that U.S. forces should be inserted into the West Bank as a means of facilitating the creation of a Palestinian state there. Caroline Glick brings our attention to this on her Facebook page:
The paper is the embodiment of the anti-Semitic obsession. Israel, the only steadfast US ally in the region is seen as the main problem in the Middle East because it hasn’t surrendered to people who call everyday in their mosques and elsewhere for the annihilation of the Jewish people and the destruction of the US. There is no rational argument to be made in favor of this view. There is only an obsession. And the obsession is Jew hatred. We are central to the story of the Middle East in their minds because they are so blinded by their obsession with us that they simply cannot, under any circumstance see the Arabs as human beings with their own motivations for action. They are fighting the Jews, therefore, they can’t be bad.
The best that can be said about such a deployment is that it will embroil the United States directly in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. More likely, the U.S. forces will wind up protecting jihadists from Israeli defensive measures. That is particularly the case given Mr. Hagel’s well-documented hostility towards the Jewish State.
If you haven’t already let your Senators know that America needs a better Secretary of Defense than Chuck Hagel, please let them know today. And if you have, please do it again.
With Matthew Continetti, Caroline Glick, Christian Adams, and Rowan Scarborough.
MATTHEW CONTINETTI, editor in chief of the Washington Free Beacon, exposes Chuck Hagel’s many deficiencies that should prevent him from becoming the next Secretary of Defense, and is skeptical of the media’s malfeasance in not exposing said deficiencies to the public.
From the Jerusalem Post, CAROLINE GLICK predicts that Obama’s agenda for his upcoming trip to Israel will be to attempt to push an agreement between the PLO and Israel, but Obama doesn’t realize that there is no Palestinian leadership that will cut a deal with Israel at this point.
CHRISTIAN ADAMS, from the Election Law Center and author of Injustice: Exposing the Racial Agenda of the Obama Justice Department, describes the plebiscite campaign that would deny any non-native Chamorros in Guam the right to vote in elections, putting at risk this highly strategic American outpost in the Pacific.
ROWAN SCARBOROUGH, a reporter from The Washington Times, speculates on how the Pentagon will cut $46 billion from its budget, and explains how Hagel’s nomination has survived to this point considering the plethora of discrediting information that has been discovered about him.
With Michael Rubin, Danielle Pletka, Caroline Glick, and Diana West.
Frank and MICHAEL RUBIN of AEI analyze the rise of Islam in Turkey, and the indoctrination of American and Turkish youth through the building of Gulen schools in over 135 different locations in America.
DANIELLE PLETKA of AEI discusses the potential degrading effects on national security that the appointment of John Kerry, Chuck Hagel, and John Brennan from the Obama administration will have.
CAROLINE GLICK of the Jerusalem Post explains how the key problem with the Hagel nomination is not that he is anti-Israel, but that he is anti-America. Glick argues that no country will replace the U.S., but rather the world will become much more violent–just as it was in the 19th century.
DIANA WEST, author of Death of the Grown-Up, and Frank discuss the Islam presence evident in media and especially in Al Goreera, the newly acquired Al Jazeera, and the presence of heavily influenced Muslim Brotherhood ideals in American media.

Last week, the Center for Security Policy’s National Security Group on Capitol Hill was the forum for a special event which included Rep. Allen West (R-FL), former Undersecretary of Defense Douglas Feith and the Center’s Senior Fellow for Middle East Affairs, Caroline Glick. Transcripts of their remarks will appear in a forthcoming edition of National Security Policy Proceedings, a quarterly journal of opinion published by the Center for Security Policy Press and available in paperback at Amazon.com. Watch the videos of their fascinating presentations, including Q&A, below.
Rep. Allen West (R-FL) spoke on the topic of defense budget cuts, how much to spend on deterrence, and much more.
Douglas Feith, former Undersecretary of Defense for Policy under the Bush administration, spoke on the topic of international law. The State Department’s top lawyer, Harold Koh, is a strong proponent of following the “norms” of international law. Now, the Obama administration is making the case that a part of the Geneva Convention that the US has never ratified should be accepted in the United States.
Caroline Glick, the Center’s Senior Fellow for Middle East Affairs, addressed the topic of the recent ‘Arab Spring’ in the Middle East and what it means for Israel and the United States.
