The papers are full of reports about the startling criticism of Israel by the Obama administration — a criticism of a type not used by Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton against many human rights abusing-governments the world over during the past year. (Who cares, for example, that 50,000 Muslim Burmese refugees are on the verge of starvation in Bangladesh, when you can bash Israel day after day, as the Obama administration did last week?)
The Los Angeles Times noted that “Hillary Rodham Clinton’s harsh words stunned Israel.”
The Wall Street Journal reported that “Clinton levied a blistering rebuke of Israel”
The Washington Post wrote that “Relations with Israel have been strained almost since the start of the Obama administration. Now they have plunged to their lowest ebb since the administration of George H.W. Bush… In her call [to Netanyahu], Clinton appeared to link U.S. military support for Israel to the construction in east Jerusalem."

I hope all Jewish Democratic Voters in America are happy with what they have wrought (or contributed to).
Naw-—they will just sulk in their philosophical self-guilt
via their jewishness and then keep voting for their liberal Dem ‘enlightened socialists.’
Paging Hillary is like expecting her or Jack Squat Barry to answer the 3 a.m. phone call...not happening.
Accordingly, the White House and State Department is mute because they “honor” terrorists by giving them hundreds of millions of our taxpayer dollars, appeasing them, and seeking unproductive discourse/dialogue with them. Just check out the behind the scenes dealings of the White House and the State Department as it deals with “peace” with the Taliban in Afghanistan....
Be assured, if Osama bin Laden had a red phone, they would be willing to have discourse and dialogue with him over “peace” and an end to *cough* overseas contingency operations *cough*....bet.

How do you figure American Jews act like Israel? In Israel, Obama’s popularity rating is 4%. Literally 4% (Jerusalem Post - google it).
American Jews from the last polling I’ve seen still support Obama and the Dems but as in every group the support is falling both on the Health Care issue and with his sucking up to Muslims. I imagine he will slip even further when the latest Israel flack hits.
With very Orthodox and Ultra-Orthodox groups, Obama’s approval is in single digits and never was much higher even when he was first elected.
