Robbert Gibbs - Obama's press secretary on Netanyahu (the Likud candidate in Israel)

in a interview with Hannity in Colmes: HANNITY: Benjamin Netanyahu blurbed my book.

GIBBS: Let me tell you — I don’t think — I don’t think your Jewish viewers are going to take it very well when you had someone like that on your show.

HANNITY: Excuse me. Excuse me. I am the biggest supporter of Israel –

GIBBS: I think it’s bad that you gave him a platform.

I think that it is good that O’s people come out now before he is even installed as POTUS. I hope that more of them do the same.

I went to the link, don’t see a date this interview took place or any context. T.V or radio?

I really wish there were an internet acronym for a low, rueful, chuckle.

Raise your hand if you didn't see this coming.

Please... 78% of American Jewish voters approve of this message.

They don't like Likud, Netanyahu or anything else right wing. Its a New World Order, baby!

Gibbs is a first class ass and not the brightest bulb on the tree...but this sounds like he doesn’t know who Netanyahu is. “Someone like that”? Jewish viewers would find it bad that Hannity gave him a platform? Huh?

Exactly, Israel is isolated now, anyone who would like to see Israel defend herself is no longer in power, or is to be shunned.

Sad state of affairs.

The truth is, most “Jews” in this country are JINOs. Only a minority of them really care about Israel. Conservative Christians care more about Israel than most so-called “Jews.”

How did we get to where you could be called the adherent of a particular religion when you don’t really practice that religion? I see people claim to be Christians all of the time, but they don’t read the Bible, go to church, or even believe a lot of the teachings.

Is that universal? Do people in India say “Yeah, I’m a Hindu, but I don’t really attend services or anything. I only believe in one or two gods. Three tops.”

Gibbs is talking about a guy named Andy Martin who appeared on Hannity and Colmes show, not Netanyahu. Listen again. It is Andy Martin being given a platform on Sean’s show that Gibbs is complaining about. Towards the end of the debate, Netanyahu’s name is brought up by Sean, but that is not who Gibbs is speaking about. So the headline on this thread is not correct.

Thanks for the clarification, I listened to the youtube provided after the post went up and I heard what you heard.
jacobny, you are new around here, be very careful when posting something as sensitive as your post.

Some minor nut-job book from a few years ago predicted that “The whole world will be against Israel”. I think it's from one of those old books that nobody reads.
