McCain, Lieberman: Congress Will Not Freeze Aid to Israel

(IsraelNN.com) Four U.S. senators, including White House hopefuls John McCain, a Republican from Arizona, and Joe Lieberman, an Independent from Connecticut, vowed during a visit to Israel Sunday that Congress would not approve cutting loan guarantees to the Jewish State. They were reacting to U.S. Middle East envoy George Mitchell, who proposed the option during an interview with American television journalist Charlie Rose. Mitchell later denied that he made a threat or an “implied threat" although a transcript of the interview states, “Under American law, the United States can withhold support on loan guarantees to Israel.

America hates George Mitchell for his abuse of Israel. Down with the dog!

I assume it has been discussed extensively on C-SPAN and posted on the internet.

Exposing further the total disarray of US foreign policy. I don't disagree with McCain and Lieberman--on the contrary--but it should never happen that US senators need to undermine a special envoy like Mitchell, in public no less.

This reveals the total incompetence of the obama regime, that they let Mitchell make his inflammatory statement without securing at least the silence of domestic leaders.

Obama doesn't talk to anyone outside his own circle of co-conspirators, and that is the problem with a malignant narcissist in the White House.

This is just another example of Obama’s “smart power”, as exercised by Clinton’s State Department.

The Senate undermined Bush’ foreign policy for years.

"reveals the total incompetence of the obama regime, that they let Mitchell make his inflammatory statement without securing at least the silence of domestic leaders"

Great point. They can't even get being scum right. And that's something we've seen several times before.

Israel has two well-toned legs to stand on. It doesn’t need crutches.

George mitchell is an ass.

What Mitchell said was directly in line with what Obama is doing, unabashed I might add. I see no reason not to think that Mitchell's statement plopped right of Bama's..."mouth", or at least was personaly vetted by Brand O.

FReeper Nachum has been chronicling Pres_ent's weekly activities since the 'dent's 1st day in office.

I recently noticed that Nachum has added a comprehensive sub list chronicling the (forced) intercourse that Coppertone* (hat tip to H. Reid and not shared by myself or most Americans) has with Israel.

It's the only sub list on Nachum's site, and even the most casual perusal substantiates the need for it.

I was going to give the link to some close friends at church, but now that I've seen the Israel list, I'm hoping to share it with the entire congregation (on Pastor's approval, of course).

I've never mixed religion and politics before (much), but I believe the Obamanation has declared war with Judeo/Christian people and beliefs, and my countrymen and congregation needs to be alerted.

Hopefully, Nachum will find time to continue adding to his Israel list, as everything the Usurper foists on the Jews should be considered a precursor of his solution for Christians.

Funny. Your post gave me the motivation to walk through the Obama/Israel file. One of the things that jump out at me is the consistant effort. They show intention from virtually the first moment of assumption of power.

I think my eyebrows did a Groucho Marx imitation when I did a quick scan.. ;~)

Pretty scary stuff, Friend. You're doing a great service.

Just a couple of thoughts: Arab oil money has been buying politicians since at least Jimmy Carter. I would love to know how many politicians are currently owned. I know Hillary hid Muslim contributions to her campaign by subtly changing their names on the required donor lists. Obama, though, is the first one that was actually raised as a Muslim.

Some of this explains why the left attacks Christians and the right for perceived slights on homosexuals and women, but totally ignores the Muslim executions of homosexuals and forcing women to wear veils, etc. Even Nancy Pelosi submits to Islam by wearing a veil.

I really wish we would freeze aid universally. But targetting Israel at the behest of “our” Arab negotiator and Kenyan-communist president is a bad move,
