Few people noticed that the Indian government came out in support of Israel in this war; social media in China was pro-Israel. It has developed strategic relations with both countries, and with Russia as well, that led Israel to absent itself from the vote of the U.N. General Assembly condemning Russia's annexation of Crimea. I think there's a sense in Israel, particularly on the right, that they can afford to be defiant of the United States. Israelis also sense a potential for a new alignment with Gulf Arab states that didn't exist before that is generated by their common interest in curbing Iran's nuclear program and countering Iran's efforts to dominate the region

Israel...making new friends, out of necessity... due to Obama. I don't think Russia would have a problem if Israel crushed Assad in Syria. So long as Russia's interests in Syria were guaranteed.

No one respects us any more.

Not even us.

Obama is slime.

And the secret is out.

And if Obama has his way, the U.S. will be found wanting.

Obama. Lois Lerner. Hillary. Huma. Issa. Cummings.
THESE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR FUNDING THE HAMAS’ ROCKETS.

USA - N. Korea - IRan - UN - Turkey - Qatar
Together for slavery and genocide.

I think Hussein Obama understands Islam very well. Obama is a master of Taqiyya. He knows exactly what is going on.

[Paladin2]

Recognize as in publicly admit.

I wonder what he would do, if he saw a big old hand writing mene mene tekel upharsin on the wall? Aren't Israeli leaders smart enough to realize that when the Obungler is gone, we will probably will have a better relationship with them?

I wonder what he would do

Get his prayer rug out of the closet and hope for the best.

[laplata]

You’re exactly right. He’ll never do that. Sorry, I misunderstood.

[rbg81]

When Obama says “I have your back”, who in their right mind would believe him?

[Mark17]

Get his prayer rug out of the closet and hope for the best.

Probably, and if he can't find one, all he need to do, is go down to the US/Mexican border. Rumor has that, that the Muzzies coming across the southern border, have abandoned their prayer rugs.

If Israel can get China, Russia and India on its side they can tell Obama to shove it. And they desperately need to get out from under the thumb of this Israeli hater.
