Is State Dept Playing April Fools Joke on Israel?
Bob McCarty Writes ^ | 4-1-10 | Bob McCarty

Posted on 04/01/2010 10:29:11 AM PDT by BobMcCartyWrites

Try to find information about Israel on the U.S. State Department web site today and you'll find: "We're sorry. That page can’t be found and may have moved."


TOPICS: Government; Politics
KEYWORDS: aprilfool; barackobama; departmentofstate; israel
Based on his actions and the statements he's made since climbing onto the world stage three years ago, I'm convinced President Barack Obama would be happy to see Israel and all of its Jewish inhabitants disappear from the surface of the Earth.

Truth be told, his posture toward the Jewish State -- minus out-and-out calls for Israel's destruction -- seems to mirror that of Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Evidence of that can be found today, on April Fool's Day of all days, on the U.S. Department of State web site -- albeit in a virtual sort of way as shown on the short video below.

Visit the U.S. State Department web site featuring an "A-Z List of Country and Other Area Pages" and click on the letter "I" and then on the word "Israel". When you follow those steps, you land on a page where you're greeted by the following message: "We’re sorry. That page can’t be found and may have moved."

I hear that the US hasn’t followed through on a single military agreement with Israel in 14 months.

You can't find a picture of a Jew on the U.S. Jerusalem consulate's website either. Just philistines.

Maybe they were wiped off of the map and we don’t know it yet.

I started a joke
That started the whole world crying
But i didn’t see...
That the joke was on me
I started to cry
That started the whole world laughing
If i’d only seen
That the joke was on me

I looked at the skies
Running my hands over my eyes
I fell out of bed
And hurt my head from the things that i said

Til I finally died
That started the whole world living
If i’d only seen
That the joke was on me”

Maybe the Foggy Bottom Arabists changed the entry to “The Zionist Entity.”

if this is an April Fools joke they’re playing with many lives of Israeli’s and a stupid joke at best.

As I noted in the update on my site, the page became visible later in the day.
