Hillary takes hard line against BDS, touts pro-Israel policies
Arutz Sheva ^ | 12/4/16

Posted on 04/12/2016 12:32:03 AM PDT by Eleutheria5

Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton emphasized her pro-Israel credentials during an interview Saturday with the New York Daily News, looking to capitalize on recent missteps by rival Bernie Sanders, whose faux pas on the 2014 Gaza war has alienated some Jewish backers.

Clinton sat down with the paper’s editorial board for an extended interview which was released on Monday. Speaking on a variety of issues both foreign and domestic, the former Secretary of State staked out hawkish positions on the war on terror and support for Israel, distinguishing herself both from Sanders and her former boss, President Obama.

Regarding terrorism, Clinton pointed out to the Daily News that she’s actively opposed President Obama on his proposed security spending cuts, repeating emphatically that “We need it, we need it, we need it!”

Turning to Israel, Clinton looked to establish her pro-Israel bona fides, blasting the BDS movement and promising to strengthen Israel’s military.

“I will continue to ensure that Israel has a qualitative military edge; that I will continue, as I did as a senator, as I did as Secretary of State to do anything and everything for their security; that I will continue to speak out against the BDS movement, which I think is one-sided, discriminatory and unfair,” Clinton said.

Making a veiled reference to rumors suggesting that the Obama administration was weighing possible use of a UN Security Council resolution to force Israel to accept the framework for a future final status agreement with the Palestinian Authority, Clinton suggested she would not support such an approach.

“I will be a President who tries to always support Israel in the United Nations or any other international tribunal, as I have in the past.”

If she knew critical tactical intel about Israel’s weaknesses she’d sell it to the Muslim Brotherhood in exchange for an importation of 200,000 radical Muslim Democrat voters in a heartbeat. Wouldn’t think twice about it. Everyone knows she’s a conniving psychopath liar and traitor. Her only god is money. And lots of it.

Now just a cotton pickin’ minit here. Let’s be fair. She might well worship Money, but she does so also worship other things, such as Power and the goddess of her kind of sex, Aphrodyke.

She travels about in a red magic carpet, which is edible and renews itself every month.

She’s been abusing us when the cameras are off for decades;-? But she keeps her happy face for when they are on. That makes her pro-Israel.

By choosing to have the Muslim Brotherhood lifetime publicist, Huma Abedin, sitting right next to her and literally looking over her shoulder for 20 years, Hillary Clinton has been GIVING away U.S. intelligence to the enemies of the Israel and the West. Hillary’s campaign chattering and promises can not ring anything but empty. They fly in the face of what she’s done, from sucking up to Yassir Arafat and his wife to taking scores of millions from the likes of the Saudis.

DesCartes, Hillary Style: I’m talking to AIPAC and smiling and saying soothing things. They think I am. Therefore, I am (pro-Israel).

Exactly—I don’t believe a word of what she says. Especially since Hillary supported the Iran deal.

Most Jews know Hillary is poison for Israel but they like to hear these pretty little lies like this one on BDS so they vote for her and donate money. More lies and schmoozing the better and Hillary knows this
