Obama interfering with Israeli Government Formation
Philadelphia Examiner ^ | February 13, 2009 | Clyde Middleton

Posted on 02/13/2009 5:02:28 PM PST by clyde_m

The U.S. official position is that it looks forward to "working with any government," but in back-channel messages the Obama administration has made it clear it would like to see a unity government in Jerusalem over a narrow right-wing government which would in all likelihood result in a freeze in peace talks with the Palestinians.

Of course he does. He is in the bag for the Muslims all the way. A unity government would be the end of Israel, when the Arabs started to take power. It would be a crime to allow Jews to be persecuted even more than they are.

Arranging “peace talks” with Palestinians would give the president the inside track to the Nobel Prize that Obama feels he has long been cheated of.

I sort of see his point, afterall both Gore and Carter have Nobels on the mantle in their gamerooms- why not Barry?

The Israelis need to tell this bozo to flake off.

Obviously. Leftist appeasers wanting to see other Leftist appeasers in power around the world isn't exactly surprising.

Why do you think the Righties were elected in the first place. Israel knows they’re on their own.

Pray for America and Israel

He needs to have his people in there in order to broker/negotiate that great “peace agreement” which the world will hail as brilliant.

Bibi will tell him where to go. And it’s very dark in there.

Israel's two rightist parties (Likud and Yisrael Beiteinu) both made significant gains in the election, and (liberal) Labor has now dropped to the 4th most powerful party in Israel. This coalition government will be taking a definite turn to the right.

Like Islam, Marxism is a global doctrine, and like Islam it is unable to compete with other schools of thought.

So it seeks to destroy them wherever it finds them.

Obama hasn’t been in office a month, and already the Russians are set to build a naval base in the breakaway province of Georgia and Syria is passing around advanced weapons systems like its candy.

Gonna be an interesting world. Thanks for vetting this guy, MSM.

Read the other article about Syria arming terrorists against the US Sixth Fleet. Didn't Obama just release sanctions against Syria?

Obama is destroying the US and Israel? That is the Hamas message, Death to Israel and America.

Why would Obama do such a low act? He is grasping at straws to save the horrrendous job Mitchell has done over there. The division of Jerusalem, claiming religious sites to be international, and demanding safe passage across Israeli lands are just the tip of the insulting iceberg Mitchell has tried to enforce.

Why would anyone expect Mitchell to proceed differently than he is, given that Mitchell is an ethnic Arab by heredity and rearing in an Arab-American enclave in Maine? In addition, he has had cozy relationships with Arab ethnic organizations in the US. Naturally, the MSM declined to even mention Mitchell's Arabist background and biases when Clinton, then O, appointed him as an Israeli-Arab "peacemaker."

Excellent short article on O's reaction to the Israeli election. Please be sure to read the last line.

Yes, I noticed that when that curious statement came out about the danger that choosing a conservative government might offend the United States.

Obama is quickly becoming a punch line. I have never seen such Audacity I’ll give you that. Someone will tell him NO at some point. Whether it’s BiBi or Putti Put...someone is going to challenge him. And when he caves which he will, the flood gates of contempt will open up and we’ll all be in a fix.

It won’t be long before zero is in a fetal position with pieces of pie circling around his head in a dark closet.
