Barack Obama will be hosting many of our nation’s most important allies in Chicago later this week. One country will be conspicuously absent when the North Atlantic Treaty Organization convenes in the President’s home town, however: Israel.

Israel is not a NATO member, of course. The Jewish State has often been included in such meetings due to its role in protecting the alliance’s southern flank in the front lines of the War for the Free World.

These days, though, the increasingly problematic leader of one NATO member state, Turkey’s Islamist Recep Erdogan is doing everything possible to isolate and undermine Israel. Shame on President Obama for acceding to Erdogan’s demands. Unfortunately, that’s just one sign of how dangerously misdirected is his preference for the Islamists over our true friends in Israel.
