In June 2008, candidate Barack Obama spoke before thousands of delegates to the pro-Israel lobbying group, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, to assuage concerns that he harbored animosity toward the Jewish state. In a paragraph of his speech that began with the phrase "Let me be clear," Obama declared that under his vision for peace, "Jerusalem will remain the capital of Israel, and it must remain undivided." The next day, after the statement triggered fierce criticism from Palestinian leaders, Obama backtracked. The reversal was an early signal of what has become a pattern during his presidency — professing profound support for Israel when it suits him, only to reverse himself when it comes to actual policy.
When Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visits the United States this week, President Obama won't meet with him — even as the administration plays a dangerous diplomatic game with Iran. Though administration officials would like to write off the current tension between the United States and Israel as being specific to Netanyahu and his decision to speak to Congress, the reality suggests that it's a product of a broader concerted effort by Obama to rupture the relationship between the two allies.
As the Washington Post previously reported, in July 2009, early in his presidency, Obama criticized his predecessor for pursuing policies that were too reflexively pro-Israel. "When there is no daylight, Israel just sits on the sidelines, and that erodes our credibility with the Arab states," he lamented. Throughout his presidency, he has sought to create this "daylight" between the two traditional allies, with well-orchestrated provocations. In his first term, he demanded a "settlement freeze" from Israel that treated Jewish housing construction as the biggest threat to Middle East peace.

It's a Muslim thing...you just wouldn't understand
Obama wants Iran to bomb Israel.
Next....
Obama want to destroy Israel, followed shortly by the US.
“Obama’s blind hostility toward Israel”
He’s seeing things through the eyes of a young boy in Indonesia that was registered as a muslim. Also, the eyes of the man that said the muzzie prayer is the sweetest sound on earth.
At heart Obama is just another muslim terrorist.
The difference is that his handlers know he can do more damage to Israel and the USA if they keep him under control and trying to act like a civilized person.
They keep him dressed in a suit and mouthing nice sounding platitudes while his Czars do the dirty work behind the scenes.
If his anti-American administration thought they could get away with it they would just give Iran a working nuclear weapon and help them send it toward Israel.
The same blind hostility (hate) that his best buddies (towelheads) have for Israel.
God forgive us our country for electing this person.
Obama and is Obamatons won’t say what is Israel’s capitol city.
“Blind hostility” adequately describes Obama regarding many different things.
I just hope one of these days Obunghole has a hissy-fit meltdown on national TV.
Obama is the biggest hoax in history!
Now that the parasite is nearing the end of his narcissistic presidency he will become bolder and will probably release ALL Gitmo terrorists. His assignment was clearly to ruin America to make it easier to be folded into the NWO as a banana republic without the bananas.
Where is our Congress now composed of careerists?
