"Bachmann blames Obama for Arab uprisings
CONCORD, N.C. - Republican Michele Bachmann is blaming President Obama’s stand on Israeli-Palestinian peace talks for the uprisings against autocratic governments across the Arab world.
At a fund-raiser yesterday in North Carolina, Bachmann traced the protests that sometimes turned deadly to Obama’s call for Israel to return to negotiations and pull back to the territory it held before the 1967 war with several Arab nations.
In video posted by MSNBC, Bachmann said the president “has laid the table for the Arab spring by demonstrating weakness from the United States of America.’’
She thinks the people protesting for freedom is a bad thing?
The Arab spring protests stretched from Algeria in North Africa to Syria in the Middle East. Some led to political instability in nations with longstanding rulers, including the ouster of President Hosni Mubarak in Egypt and Moammar Khadafy in Libya. Also, the government forces of Bashar Assad have brutally suppressed widespread protests in Syria.
Bachmann’s campaign did not immediately return a message seeking elaboration.
