Obama aide wants talks with terrorists Foreign adviser's 'anti-Israel policies'

JERUSALEM ? While officials here largely maintain a policy against interfering in U.S. election politics, some Israeli security officials quietly expressed "concern" about an adviser to Sen. Barack Obama who has advocated negotiations with Hamas and providing international assistance to the terrorist group.

The officials noted Robert Malley, a principal Obama foreign policy adviser, has penned numerous opinion articles, many of them co-written with a former adviser to the late Palestinian Authority President Yasser Arafat, petitioning for dialogue with Hamas and blasting Israel for numerous policies he says harm the Palestinian cause.

Malley also previously penned a well-circulated New York Review of Books piece largely blaming Israel for the collapse of the Israeli-Palestinian negotiations at Camp David in 2000 when Arafat turned down a Palestinian state in the West Bank, Gaza and eastern sections of Jerusalem and instead returned to the Middle East to launch an intifada, or terrorist campaign, against the Jewish state.

Malley's contentions have been strongly refuted by key participants at Camp David, including President Bill Clinton, then-Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak and primary U.S. envoy to the Middle East Dennis Ross, all of whom squarely blamed Arafat's refusal to make peace for the talks' failure.

"We are noting with concern some of Obama's picks as advisers, particularly Robert Malley who has expressed sympathy to Hamas and Hezbollah and offered accounts of Israeli-Palestinian negotiations that don't jibe with the facts," said one security official, speaking on condition of anonymity.

He’s anti America. America as we know it. He is dangerous and must never be allowed to soil the White House with his disgusting, radical leftist presence.

“He’s anti America. America as we know it.”

Bingo.

Israel is an ally, but as an American, I am MUCH more concerned with Obama’s infantile ideas which are inherently anti-American.

Who was the the English official in the 30’s who tried to negotiate with Hitler?
That’s what this Malley is aspiring to be.

Rat or not they seem to pretty consistently kiss some butt over in the Middle East.

I wonder if Jewish voters will automatically vote Dem if Mr.Obama is the nominee? Does he engender confidence in our Jewish citizens? I wonder why no one is talking about this.Just his name would cause me to think twice.

Republicans have been far more "Israel-friendly" than Democrats. But secular Jew voters in the U.S. have priorities that far outweigh any concern for Israel.

They will, as ever, vote more than 80% (probably more than 90%) for the Socialist-Marxist-Nazi candidate, whether it be Adolf Hitlery Rodham Clinton or Osama Hussein Obama, neither of whom would bat an eyelid if Israel were wiped off the face of the Earth.

After the election Hitlery and Obama will team up anyway. Like two peas in a pod. If McCain would win the election, they would walk all over him.

I’m curious to see if they actually will team up. If Obama gets it, I can’t see Hillary taking the #2 spot.

One from the Senate and one from the White House. Obama would be signing a Death Wish if he chose Hitlery for VP. He wouldn’t last a week.
