Why did you upload a 2008 article?

[SJackson]

Because it’s relevant to the current article under discussion.

My, my, how quickly they forget. I don’t know if Mr. Goldberg is still suffering under this delusion or is mired in denial by now, but if 0bama turned out to be the “friend of Israel” Goldberg predicted, they don’t need any enemies.

I wish we were a little more “paranoid” about Hitler than we were. Might have a few relatives left in Europe, other than as ashes in Auschwitz.

A little “paranoia” is a good thing. It keeps you sharp when the enemy is about.

From time to time, current and former administration officials have described Netanyahu as a national leader who acts as though he is mayor of Jerusalem, which is to say, a no-vision small-timer who worries mainly about pleasing the hardest core of his political constituency. (President Obama, in interviews with me, has alluded to Netanyahu’s lack of political courage.)

Jerusalem was chosen as Israel's Capital by a sovereign nation. It has yet, after 65 years, failed to effect that choice in deference to the delicate nature of dealing with political and literal animals. Any criticism by any of Obama's flying monkeys is frightening, in addition to meaningless. Babbling by idiots beyond their depth.

As for courage, political or otherwise, Baraq Hussein Obama has to have stuff the size of basketballs to criticize a war-tempered military hero many times over and with the restraint of a saint, not to have already moved to build Israel's national government on the Temple mount, eject the waqf and welcome any and all muslim martyrs who have serious objections.

One or thousands.

Enough is enough! I will contribute toward any campaign to buy all the ammunition that Israel needs to protect herself.

What color is the sky in his universe? What a ‘tard idiot.ebama hates Jews and Israel

[SJackson]

Green, isn't it green everywhere?

[Timber Rattler]

So Goldberg has hoisted himself up his own petard, eh?

[Timber Rattler]

He did...check the date of the piece-—its from 2008.

[Jack Hammer]

The writer of this piece would appear to be an utterly ignorant *sshole.

And just plain uninformed, to boot.

[Steelers6]

Israeli’s right on this one.

[Jewbacca]

Someone needs to interview Jeff about this and see if he changed his mind.

[Jewbacca]

It was written in 2008. Be curious what he thinks now.

[SJackson]

I doubt it. Ironically the paranoid Jews here in the US were a distinct minority. Still are. Far more paranoid Evangelicals.
