JERUSALEM — With Egypt unsettled, Syria in crisis and Iran’s nuclear program raising widespread fears, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton conferred here Monday with Israeli leaders to reaffirm U.S. ties and allay anxieties about the rapidly changing dynamics in the region.

In her first trip to Israel since 2010 and likely her last as secretary of state, Clinton met Monday morning with Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman and President Shimon Peres for talks on a range of issues, the most pressing of which was probably Iran’s nuclear program. But the talks also touched on the dangers of an escalating civil war in neighboring Syria and other changes ushered in by last year’s Arab Spring uprisings...

In prepared remarks after meeting Peres, Clinton alluded to a “moment of great change and transformation for the region...”

At her last stop in the port city of Alexandria for the reopening of the U.S. Consulate there, several hundred protesters waving shoes and shouting “Monica! Monica!” pelted Clinton’s departing motorcade with fruit and footwear...

Four years of Obama/Clinton. Together they have lost the Middle East to foaming-at-the-mouth Islamic lunatic hatemongers who want to kill all the Jews and drive the U.S. into a caliphate slavery. Nice work, Dems.

Meanwhile, Romney smiles and nods on TV while he chides Obama for spending too much on solar panels.

Israel should tell Clinton to pound sand. Obama created this mess, now let him extricate himself from it.

Isn’t it great Obama changed our image around the world?

Now go pay your taxes - your government is broke. :)

It was unclear exactly who the demonstrators were.

Friends of Obama.

He did it on purpose ... no extrication necessary.

Reason #864 why character matters - fodder for our adversaries.

This stuff is hilarious and painfully sad at the same time. Does anyone think Hillary has learned anything about Islamic Democracy and her master’s brothers?

Interesting that this hasn’t gotten any play in the MSM, while the event with Bush and the thrown shoe was shown over and over.

Isn’t it wonderful to watch the Clinton’s and Obama’s cozy up to freaks who want to murder them? It’s obvious who would die first if they can ever wrestle any control in this country. First the feminists and then the gays.

This country is in serious trouble if we cannot get a grip on reality and stop feeding and supporting the very folks who are screaming for our blood. We even provide the weapons for them to kill us with.

Let me put my Marxist Retard cap on.

So, Hillary must have went to Egypt because she wanted to be booed.
