Our biggest foreign policy threat is in our back yard — and ignored by our leaders Ep. 222

We are continuing our series of “Foreign Policy Friday” with CR’s national security correspondent, Jordan Schachtel (@JordanSchachtel), to show how foreign policy, when done right, is really about protecting our homeland.  Jordan and I take a tour around the world to give an update on North Korea, Iran, Syria, Afghanistan, and Yemen. We show how in each theater, other than in North Korea, we are doing the wrong things at the wrong time in the wrong place. We don’t prioritize real threats, and we get involved in theaters that don’t threaten us. We drive this point home by announcing our new project to expose and publicize the growing threat of Hezbollah in the Western Hemisphere and even in Mexico and our own country, working together with the Los Zetas drug cartel. This alliance poses a grave threat of drugs, smuggling in Middle Eastern terrorists, magnifying the damage done by the Mexican drug cartels, and Islamitizing Latin America, not to mention bringing Iran’s influence right to our shores. While our foreign policy smart set focuses on Yemen and Syria, they refuse to recognize that this is the main theater at which Iran must be stopped. You will also see what our foreign policy can learn from fixing toilets.  Show links Politico expose on how Obama shut down counter-Hezbollah operation in Latin America  Green Berets fighting for Saudi gov’t allied with AQ against Houthis We’re bailing out Iran and Hezbollah from the Sunni insurgency Good overview of Hezbollah in Latin America and the threat posed by its alliance with cartels What is important from Israel’s findings on Iran and what we should do Copyright CRTV.
