US President Barack Obama has said that a weakened Israel would be a "fundamental failure of my presidency," affirming solidarity with the long-time ally despite recent differences over the Iran nuclear deal.

Obama said while Israel has reason to be concerned about foe Iran, he defended the framework agreement on Iran's nuclear program that negotiators drew up last week.

Obama made the comments to The New York Times in a 45-minute video interview on Saturday that was posted on Sunday.

"I would consider it a failure on my part, a fundamental failure of my presidency, if on my watch or as a consequence of work that I've done, Israel was rendered more vulnerable," Obama said.

His religion, using the term loosely, allows him to lie outright to non-believers.

Probably because he wants to see Israel totally destroyed. Of course, we’re dealing with a man who has zero regard for the truth anyway.

Ahh...that is why he campaigned so hard to get Netanyahu re-elected. His reverse psychology ploy worked - good job.

Just playing to the American Jews after a couple articles in the MSM documented some are angry about the potential Iran deal. Most of these secularist Jews will buy it hook, line and sinker.

So basically, if Israel got wiped off the face of the map by Iranian nukes, Obama would be willing to say, “oops, my bad”.

Oh, but obamaumao- it would NOT be a failure of YOU. After all it is only YOU that counts.

The failure of your “presentdency” would be a GDmd SUCCESS for the obiwan obamaumao, the one the only Narcissima.

What a complete utter, jive A@@ skinny mack daddy homer.

Quit, now... please. The job is clearly beneath your incredible abilities. Your incredible deliberate incompetence.
