The current US Administration has turned its back on traditional US allies, and has attempted to embrace our enemies. The policy does not appear to be productive. Obama clearly wants to withdraw support of Israel. Here is an article that discusses the need to protect Israel as a line of defence for ourselves. As the article discusses, the leftists in the US and Europe do not want to defend us from our enemies. The reason for their position is debatable, whether they are merely pacifists or are anti-capitalists (and thus opposed to individual freedom). I tend toward the latter explanation.
