Obama to impose a solution

Obama has surrounded himself with a host of vehemently ant-Israel advisors including Lee Hamilton, Zbigniew Brzezinski, Samantha Power, Susan Rice and Gen Jones, many of who advocate imposing a solution on Israel.

So it was no surprise that he started his term of office by attacking Israel, America’s best and most steadfast ally, and demanding a complete settlement freeze east of the greenline including Jerusalem. He went so far as to repudiate the US commitment set out in the Bush ’04 letter to Sharon saying there was no agreement. Elliot Abrams and others involved in the negotiations which led to the letter testified otherwise.

In January ’09 before Obama had gotten his act together, Haaretz, reported

“Mitchell told Israeli officials that the new administration was committed to Israel’s security, to the road map, and to the 2004 letter by president George W. Bush stating Palestinian refugees would not return to Israel and the border between Israel and the Palestinian Authority would take into consideration facts on the ground, meaning large settlement blocs would remain in Israeli hands”.

Within a few months, that commitment was history.

PM Netanyahu, who had campaigned on the rejection of the two state –solution and on continued settlement growth, attempted to deflect or resist the pressure. One can only imagine the Tools of Persuasion that Netanyahu was subjected to. Finally on June 12/09 Netanyahu made a major speech at the Begin Centre in which he shocked Israelis by agreeing to a two-state solution.

I’d really love to see Bibi tell BO to stick it.

Americans by the millions are doing so...the allies are unimpressed with the Chicago thug...and I’m certain Israelis feel the same way.

Fools.

I’d love to see that too, but I am not encouraged by what I see coming out of the Israeli media

Will this solution be “final”?

IMPOSE a solution? What freakin’ right does Obama (or any U.S. politician) have to impose ANYTHING on Israel? They get aid, but they should tell Obama to pound salt and keep it.

Bibi, tell him off!

Hmmmm???? Many thought the inclusion of former Israeli soldier and Chicago gangster Rham Emmanuel would temper the the anti-Israel crowd... I guess not. Should we conclude that Emmanuel, Cass Sunstein and others in the Obama regime are anti-Jew Jews? Leftist/fascist/socialist first, Jew second? Go figure??

[WorkerbeeCitizen]

Bibi is also capable of doing the sticking ;)

Does Obama know how stupid he looks worldwide?
