The fact that this is in an area that is expected to be part of Israel under any previous agreements, aborted by the palestinians, is irrelevant. There's no reason the Obama-Mitchell-Clinton team can's demand the return of more territory to the Arabs. They need a modern city, why not Tel Aviv? They won't be able to build one.

Considering the fact that Barack Hussein Obama is a Muslim sympathizer, I'm not the least bit surprised that his administration is using the Israeli settlements as an excuse to characterize Netanyahu as 'a problem' and pull away from Israel. They'll likely fool some Americans but not many Israelis.

This idiocy on the part of the Obama administration could well fuel a real split between the U.S. and Israel. The game would be that, no matter what Netanyahu said or did, Obama would be 'unhappy' and of course, the 'Palestinians' would leap on this as a signal to attack Israel. An Israeli rout of the Palestinian terror brigades would trigger a coordinated attack on Israel from it's Arab neighbors, especially Iran, controlled by religious fanatics. That could lead to Israel using it's nukes and from there, it's Armageddon - or something close to it- that no one wants to contemplate.

This is why the cliche 'elections have consequences' is used to describe the bitter results of electing a crypto-Muslim with hard left political beliefs and a liberal-Democrat congressional majority. This could easily get very bad, very quickly. Obama is out of his depth here.

........This is treading in very dangerous territory.....

Desperate losers do desperate things. When you survey the world, when you survey the problems, when you survey instances where American influence can be positive, there is nothing. The Brown clown sees nowhere he can succeed.

It is irrelevancy everywhere he looks. He falls back on the only likely spot. Promoting peace where there is no actual war. There is stalemate and he can have no effect. He is quite stupid to interject himself for personal salvation when none else sees a need to do anything.

The game he thinks he is playing is already over. He is not a player in the new game

Or throw Poland under the buss with missile defense......

While at it, why not declare Afghanistan's government and the process we're trying to build and foster corrupt?

Why not all but ignore Maliki and Talabani in Iraq?

Don't ever mention the word “freedom” or “democracy” or even just “human rights” in any speech that addresses any Middle Eastern, Chinese, etc. media/crowds......... When is the last time he's spoken about the Republic of Georgia?..............

It's the new era of cooperation, understanding, human rights, freedom, transparency, and multilateral ism...../sarc lol

As I've said many times- If you're an ally of ours that relies on us and is tied to us for national security, be very worried. Only those that see no threat, the freeloaders out there that today want to do as little as possible from as far and late as they can, only they will see merit and righteousness in his actions and in-actions in the long run. His agenda is one of introspection/isolation, non-confrontation and appeasement, US disengagement and minimal involvement............. The US isn't Switzerland. If we decide to do nothing about pirates off the coast of Somalia, the threat of N. Korea, Iran, Iraq, Cuba, Venezuela, Abu Sayeff, AQ, the Taliban in S. Afghanistan........ things start coming apart. Our weakness ALWAYS is followed by a rise in threat, destabilization...... i.e. Jimmy Carter, Clinton............

Obama and Biden won’t be happy until they add “started nuclear conflict between Israel and Iran” on their resumes. Always nice to have “slaughterd Jews and babies” in your legacy, yanno.

Idiot.

Here’s the scenario He is aggravating:

1) Iran tests a bomb. This test could be conducted either
in their desert, or over Tel Aviv. Not much difference,
except in the latter case subsequent things move faster.

2) Israel finally decides the threat is immediate and existential. Time has run out. They strike as best they can with what they have. Hard.

3) What happens in Iran next is all but inconsequential.
What happens world-wide next is a H*U*G*E Islamist blow-back.

4) Now, how in the bloody hell does He figure he’ll survive
What Comes Next?

Bad, stupid, deal — leaving Israel desperately threatened, and with no sense of anything left to lose, and no remaing true friends in the world. Cornered. Very dangerous.

...talk about “environmental degradation”-—

Never surrender Bibi! Stick right back in the eye of zero and the kapos (Axisrod, and the ballerina). Build another 1600 units in E. Jerusalem. Zero wants to tell Jews where they can live-purely racist.
The 0bama doctrine: it’s better to have enemies than friends. Bibi, 0bama is no friend of Israel. Israel does have many friends in the US and the best way to help yourself and America is to undermine and weaken the 0bama administration.

They already know that Obama Team is a threat to their National Security.
what will happen...? They will do what ever is necessary to defend themselves and will tell Obama to screw himself. That is what will happen....there are people here in the US is ready to help defend Israel, even they are not Jewish...The Jews are God,s Children, therefore, go figure. Hell will break out in all parts or all over the world....it wont be nice, especially here at home.

When Israel has to go it alone with Iran, do you suppose hussein will order our military to intervene against Israel. And if so, what do you suppose will be the response from our military?

I think the Israelis already know the Ayatollah Obama is their dire enemy.

The United States should be ashamed for having elected an enemy from within to the presidency.

The only thing that can protect us now is the hand of God.

For the angst that the OblahMao Administration is causing the nation of Israel my prayer/wish is multipled 1000 fold that his healthscare debacle bill will come crashing down to a Waterloo-like defeat in which both he and it deserves. Genesis 12:3 in application!

May the Almighty King of the Universe cause the plans of Hussein to come crashing around him, and his jaw be clenched with distraught.

If the U.S. approach to Israel gets any worse Israel should lobby for the removal of the United States from the middle east peace process.

It should be obvious now that the Obama government can not be a fair arbitrator as his administration is stacked with anti-Israeli, anti democratic goons.

Perhaps Israel should be wooing China. Wouldn’t that be a slap in the face? Obama needs to be brought down to size.

The White House is raising the stakes with Israel, calling it an "insult" and an "affront" that the Jewish nation would continue plans to build 1,600 new apartments during a construction freeze aimed at re-igniting peace talks with Palestinians.

The White House is raising the stakes with US citizens, calling it an "insult" and an "affront" that the people of the US do not want socialized medicine. The Democrats will pass their death care legislation by fiat.

IMO, this administration has the same attitude toward Israel and its own citizens as they continue to ignore the people that elected them, and as they side with the communists and Islamofacists.
