Obama: U.S. Does Not Recognize 'Legitimacy of Continued Israeli Settlements'
Foxnews.com ^ | 09/23/09 | Staff

Posted on 09/23/2009 10:49:53 AM PDT by OldDeckHand

In declaring that it is time for Middle East peace "without preconditions," President Obama used his speech to the U.N. General Assembly Wednesday to fire a warning at Israel that "America does not accept the legitimacy of continued Israeli settlements."

Obama's stark declaration, which drew applause, was coupled with a call for Palestinians to end their "incitement of Israel."

But it was the use of the U.N. forum to carry the settlement message to Israel that drew the most enthusiastic response on the floor -- and incredulous reaction outside its walls.

Obama just put Israel "on the chopping block," said former U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. John Bolton.

Obama said he met Tuesday with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who was not in attendance at the speech, and agreed that the two have made some progress in both strengthening security and facilitating freedom of movement, which have allowed the economy in the West Bank to grow.

But more progress is needed, he said.

“The liberal Jews I know aren’t paying close enough attention to even know what he’s saying. They’re oblivious.

The conservative Jews are aghast, obviously.”

Aghast....aghast...My family, politically conservative American Jews who love this country and Israel, is sickened by what is happening to our country. But what appalls us most is knowing that liberal so-called Jews voted for this Zero and well may have helped him destroy Israel and The United States.
Aghast just doesn’t cover it! I cannot put into words just how angry I was when I heard Zero’s comments regarding Israel during his UN speech today.

Get the US out of the UN and get the UN out of the US! (I can dream can’t it?)

I will be praying for the United State of America and the protection of the US constitution and I will be praying for Israel during Yom Kippur services. I will also be praying that my fellow American Jews.....OPEN THEIR EYES TO THE TRUTH ABOUT ZERO AND HIS CRONIES!

G-d Bless America and G-d Bless Israel

LaShannah Tovah!

Hussein Obama is totally wrong as usual. ZERO has yet again sided with his MARXIST buddies and tyrannical thugs in the UN. ZERO has undermined the democratic government of Honduras and now, he is close to severing ties with our one true friend in the middle-east, Israel. It's very close to THE TIME.

I’m still convinced he’s a forerunner, stalking horse . . . testing several methodologies, schemes, waters . . . pushing the world aggressively toward that regime . . . destroying as much of the old as possible.

Of course, if he were . . . dispatched and came back to full animation . . . I might have to reconsider.

1) Someone, anyone in the Republican Party leadership needs to speak up now and send a message to Israel that the Democratic Party and not America is against them.

2) Bibi should come out and declare that these are the views of the Democratic Party and President Obama not the views of Republicans and most Americans.

Add Israel as one more group for Obama to throw under the bus.

Obama is outrageous at least once each day (usually more). He’s like an acidic fascist wave eating at the shores of our wonderful country. He disgusts me.

I’ve said this before, I’ll say it again: Israel is not a priority for most American Jews that are democrat voters. It’s waaaaay down on their list of priorities.

The camera people were ordered to NOT pan the audience while bam was speaking. They were not allowed to take the camera off him while he was speaking, so we were not allowed to see reaction from world leaders who were present. I will wager there was absolute shock rippling through that chamber.

I doubt that - it would have been a very joyful, impressed reacton. You forget that internationally, Israel is about as popular as a leper at an orgy.

what if a repentant Obambi supporter took a microphone and hidden camera to a secret Obambi meeting to discuss how to support the terrorists without looking like they were supporting the terrorists...

And we could call it "Protocols of the Learned Elders of Anti-Zion"...

Has anyone checked to see if Ubama pitches a tent in the backyard of the White House ??

Last Democratic president to regularly 'pitch a tent' on White House Grounds was Mister Clinton...

http://archive.newsmax.com/archives/articles/2001/2/22/222039.shtml has this excellent anecdote from Barry Farber: I’ve long treasured the little story – true or not – about the European Jew who was hectoring the American Jew about the condition of Jewish life in America.

“You American Jews aren’t really Jewish,” complained the European Jew. “You’re assimilated. You spend all your time showing how non-Jewish you can be. Your children play high school football on Friday night. You eat ham sandwiches followed by milk shakes.

“We European Jews,” the tirade continued, “were holding regular services before Columbus even discovered America. We have the great synagogues, the great rabbis, the great liturgical collections.

“What,” demanded the European Jew, “do you American Jews have better than we European Jews?”

Without hesitation the American Jew replied, “Christians! We American Jews have the absolute best Christians Jews have ever been privileged to live among.”
