PRESIDENT OBAMA GIVES ONE OF THE MOST REPULSIVE SPEECHES IN AMERICAN HISTORY IN HIROSHIMA, Ben Shapiro writes:

Obama noted that war is not unique in human history; he even went full moral relativist with regard to World War II itself: “the war grew out of the same base instinct for domination or conquest that had caused conflicts among the simplest tribes, an old pattern amplified by new capabilities and without new constraints.”

This is disgusting. If you can’t spot the bad guys and the good guys in World War II, of all conflicts, you’re on the side of a valueless nihilism that allows the possibility of future world wars – after all, you can’t take a strong stand against evil if it doesn’t exist. Japan was wrong. America was right. Germany was wrong. America was right. End of story.

Considering that Obama allowed his chief speechwriter to work the Chamberlain-eque phrase “peace in our time” into his second inaugural address, it’s easy, albeit terrifying to imagine what World War II would have been like with Obama as America’s president. But if you’d like a refresher course, just read Robert Harris’s brilliant what-if novel, Fatherland. But even there, reality has outpaced fiction – Harris posited an alternate reality where President Joseph P. Kennedy is negotiating détente in the mid-1960s with an evil socialist empire. I doubt even the most brilliant of novelists would have written about an America actively giving nuclear technology to one – or at a minimum, as Jed Babbin wrote in 2013, paraphrasing Obama’s worldview, “If Iran likes its path to the bomb, it can keep following its path to the bomb.”
