'U.S. furious over Israeli incitement against Obama'
HaAretz ^ | 10/08/09 | Akiva Eldar

The U.S. administration is furious over Israeli incitement against President Barack Obama, Democratic congressmen close to Obama told an Israeli source who returned from a visit to Washington this week.

The congressmen even hinted that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been personally involved.

The source, who met in Washington with administration officials and members of Congress, told Haaretz he was stunned by the level of anger there over attempts to portray Obama to the American public as an enemy of Israel because of his efforts to restart peace talks and freeze settlement construction.

"There are people here who are playing with fire by damaging our relationship with the U.S.," the source said.

Bambi is the one damaging our relationship with Israel. His performance at the UN was a slap in the face to our long-time ally.

I would rather toss Bambi out and keep Israel than the other way around.

Looks like more of the Obama’s administration war against Israel. They are as bad as UN nuclear inspector Muhammad Al-Baraedi. Both enable a nuclear Iran

Obama wouldn’t be able to pass a security clearance to get on El Al Airlines, unfortunately this guy is now President. Everyone in Israel knows that he is Anti Israel and Pro Arab. They are very concerned about America abandoning them

I think BamaKennedy's take down of US should be of greater concern to the civilized nations.

But he IS an enemy of Israel. I don’t understand. I thought he was proud of his hostility to Israel and his new alignment with the Jihadists. Rev. Wright is so proud. He is closing Guantanamo, he is turning Afghanistan over to the Taleban, he is hounding, bankrupting and persecuting the brave patriots who captured and interrogated the Jihadist terrorists post-911. He has signaled that he will talk while the Iranians prepare Israel’s destruction.

I do believe that BO’s an enemy of Israel, and I also think Benjamin Netanyahu is a better man than Barack Obama.

Rev Wright was a Pali supporter while Obama sat in his church for 20 years.

Mr. Obama’s remarks at Cairo and at the UN were just fatuous. How could he expect the Israelis to take this lying down. Doesn’t he know that they have the power to pull the United States into a war that would wreck his administration?

BHO is living up to my worst expectations. If Israel has to go it alone, it won’t be a ‘tea party’. Israel is serious about their survival, Obie is a clown.

At another time, with another President, I would agree that if Israel went to war America would unflinchingly stand beside her.

But this is now, and I'm afraid the Teleprompter would let her burn. It wouldn't surprise me if a great many others feel the same way.

Netanyahu has always been an Alpha Male in the political world (and a good thing, too!). He understands that tides are rising against his country and has no intention of going down within a fight. God, please bless him!!

Bambi is a second-rate Beta Male; he would rather fork over his lunch money, let the bullies laugh at him, and run away while friends are being kicked and punched, than dirty his pristine hands.

I’m for any way whatsoever that Israel can negatively impact Obama.
