Report: Intelligence Warns Israel is now an ‘Obstacle to Obama'
Arutz 7 ^ | 4/29/09 | Gil Ronen

(IsraelNN.com) According to a classified intelligence assessment handed to Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, U.S. President Barack Obama and his senior advisors wish to “incrementally diminish U.S. strategic cooperation with Israel.”

A report in World Tribune quoted an Israeli source familiar with the intelligence assessment who said that "Obama wants to make friends with our worst enemies and [those who were] until now the worst enemies of the United States. Under this policy,” the source added, “we are more than irrelevant. We have become an obstacle.”

Bibi knew that, under Obama, the U.S. government would eventually stop backing Israel. The new Israeli government most likely has plans drawn up to go it alone.

If Obama destroys U. S. relations with Israel, he’ll be destroying much more than that by the act.

That’s okay with Jewish Americans. Bye-bye Israel. We won’t be needing you anymore.

The selective Jane Harman leak was a clue. I wonder if/when US Jews who supported Obama are feeling any remorse. Not the self hating ones, those that just vote ‘rat as a matter of habit...

Gallup: Obama grabs 74 percent of Jewish vote

http://www.jewishjournal.com/thegodblog/item/gallup_obama_grabs_74_percent_of_jewish_vote_20081026/

Another day, another poll. And this one is full of good news for Barack Obama.

For months he has been struggling with Jewish voters. Polls by Gallup and the American Jewish Committee indicated that he was poised to become the second Democratic presidential nominee since FDR to receive less than 60 percent of the Jewish vote. But as the election enters its final week, Obama’s lead, nationally, despite an apparent outlier last week, and with Jewish voters, continues to grow.

Gallup’s latest poll found that 74 percent of American Jews expect to vote for Obama—on par with the proportion that voted for John Kerry in 2004.

It looks like all the commotion drew a desperate action from a low-level GOP staffer in Pennsylvannia, who sent out an e-mail to 75,000 Jewish voters intimating that a vote for Obama could lead to Holocaust II:

“Jewish Americans cannot afford to make the wrong decision on Tuesday, November 4th, 2008,“ the e-mail reads. “Many of our ancestors ignored the warning signs in the 1930s and 1940s and made a tragic mistake. Let’s not make a similar one this year!“

A copy of the e-mail, provided by Democratic officials, says it was Paid for by the Republican Federal Committee of PA - Victory 2008.

It warns “Fellow Jewish Voters of the danger of a second Holocaust due to the threats to Israel from its neighbors” and touts Republican presidential candidate John McCain’s qualifications over those of Obama.

State Republican officials disavowed the e-mail and said the strategist who helped draft it had been fired.

You just answered you own question. They are in the majority who mindlessly vote Demonrat.

The longer Israel waits the weaker she will become and the more bold Obama will grow IMO.

Thanks America. In your quest to have a person with dark skin as President to attempt to ease your guilt or make you proud of your race, you have just made every enemy a “friend” and every ally an enemy.

"I wonder if/when US Jews who supported Obama are feeling any remorse."

Excellent comment.

I'm already starting to hear "I didn't vote for Obama" from my Jewish friends even before this information is confirmed.

Share your sentiments. It is frustrating because the occupant does not represent the opinion of much of the country which is pro-Israel.

The same self-defeating mentality pervades Jewish, Jewish-American, and American leftism. “If we do nothing to provoke our enemies, maybe they will go away. If we accept this little appeasement, they will leave us alone”.

Joe Lieberman is the exception that proves the rule.

Interesting, however, that leftists in nations like China or Russia do not share this philosophy. They believe in expansionism and aggression, not passivity and appeasement.

Obama has taken it a step further in an even more dangerous self-delusional way. I can only speculate that Obama believes that if you engage your enemies, you can convince them not to attack you, but I’m not really sure what his intentions are.
