The Muslim world can build nukes (Iran), commit genocide (Sudan), Obama will come bearing apologies and huge aid packages.
North Korea is launching missiles, Iran is building nukes, Saudi Arabia is sponsoring hate that translates into worldwide terrorism, Sudan is still massacring and raping, China is busy ethnic cleansing Tibet into a Chinese province but the Obama Administration is furious, yes furious at only one country, Israel.
What did Israel do? Well its building a hotel in Jerusalem.
Washington is furious over the Interior Ministrys anticipated approval of a plan to build a new hotel in East Jerusalem, just 100 meters from the Old Citys walls. In conversations with Israeli officials, senior American officials have made it clear that they want Israel to freeze all plans for expanding the Jewish presence in East Jerusalem, and especially in the Holy Basin - the area adjacent to the Old City.
What right does Israel have building a hotel in its own capital anyway? So far weve had Secretary of State Hillary Clinton demand an end to Jewish babies being born, as if she were Pharaoh dressed up in a power suit. The administration has demanded an absolute freeze on settlements, with Jerusalem to be viewed as a settlement too, in exchange for Abbas and Hamas, maybe sorta stepping up their security cooperation. The double standard here isnt exactly hard to find.
The Muslim world can build nukes (Iran), commit genocide (Sudan), occupy anyplace they want including the territory of a NATO ally (Turkey), and Obama will come hat in hand to them, bearing apologies and huge aid packages.
Israel however had better not even think of building a hotel in its capital city. Or having babies. Or the Obama Administration will be furious and leak supposed plans to punish Israel ..

Nearly 20 years in Rev. Wright’s church and the lesson of Genesis 12:3 must have been ripped from the Bibles there.
Most of us will stick with the blessing part of that equation.
