Reports: Obama Mulling Sanctions on Israel
The Washington Free Beacon ^ | December 4, 2014 | Adam Kredo

Posted on 12/05/2014 8:55:53 PM PST by redleghunter

The Obama administration is refusing to discuss reports that emerged early Thursday claiming that the White House is considering imposing sanctions on Israel for continuing construction on Jewish homes in Jerusalem.

State Department spokeswoman Marie Harf dodged several questions on Thursday when confronted with reports that the administration had held secret internal meetings to discuss taking action against Israel for its ongoing building in East Jerusalem.

The classified meetings were reportedly held several weeks ago and included officials from both the State Department and White House, according to the Israeli daily Ha’aretz, which first reported on the meetings.

The possibility of sanctioning Israel for its ongoing construction sends a signal that the Obama administration is willing to go further in its denunciations of Israel than any previous White House.

At the same time, the White House is vigorously pushing Congress against passing new sanctions on Iran.

When asked to address the reports Thursday afternoon, Harf declined to take a stance.

“The Obama administration is against sanctions on Iran, but for them on Israel,” said Noah Pollak, executive director of the pro-Israel organization Emergency Committee for Israel. “Is [White House deputy national security adviser] Ben Rhodes wearing a green headband to work these days?”

They booed God, 3 times. Why would we expect anything less.

It’s “bizzaro world” foreign non-policy. I guess this is what you get when a foreigner runs foreign policy.

More proof that Obama, despite his 20 years under the tutelage of the supposed Christen preacher Rev.Wright, knows nothing of the Bible.

Yes indeed. Sanctions will open the door for other nations to push for UN sanctions. Which would have Obola and Lurch mulling voting yes or abstaining from a security council vote.

In effect condemning an ally. Biblically known as a curse.

Obama won't have to...Just talking about it has God's attention...

Apparently there's a mole in the group that passes on information to Israel...Thank God for that...

Antisemitic Nazi collaborator Amin el-Husseini was Yassar Arafat's mentor. Zer0 was influenced by Edward Said of Columbia Universisty. Said worked with Arafat at the Palistine National Council. There is not doubt that Zer0 has antisemitic roots.

No surprise here. Obola’s hatred of Israel and the Jews has been obvious for quite some time. I look forward to the day God stomps on him like the roach he is. Since no one else has the guts to do it. Can’t happen soon enough.

The “Israel Lobby” is the most powerful political force opposing Obama on issues that concern it with supporters from Graham and McCain among the R’s to Feinstein, Schumer and Mendendez among the D’s in the Senate.

This action could indirectly result in his impeachment...

... and by doing the math, there could be enough votes in the Senate for his removal from office.

Think about it.

>>Interesting article you won’t find in the state run media aka MSM.<<

I wondered about that. I'm not so sure that the MSM won't fall in line behind the pResident on that. "All nations against Israel" will happen and the gradual move of the leadership on both sides is happening. Think about the fact that most organized churches believe that Israel has been superseded by the church and their is little resistance to hold Israel in any special position.
