Poll: Israelis View Obama Favorably (Unbelievable)

(JERUSALEM) — A poll released Friday shows that Israelis overwhelmingly have a favorable impression of President Barack Obama, despite a grave diplomatic feud with the U.S. over east Jerusalem construction.

Between a total of three polls released Friday, Israelis sent mixed signals about their own leader. Thirty-six percent of those questioned for one poll thought Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was best suited to lead Israel, versus 26% for his closest challenger, opposition leader Tzipi Livni. But another poll showed Livni's Kadima Party would overtake Netanyahu's Likud by a wider margin if elections were held today.

OK Israel picture this scenario. The Obama administration is blocking the sale of 300 plus bunker busting bombs you need to cripple Iran’s nuclear capability.
So lets just say Imawhackjob gets a nuke and missle and wants to bring back that missing Imam so he launches an attack on you guys.
You going to feel so favorable towards Obama then?
What if Bibi responds by sending your nuclear arsenal into all Arab countries? How will you feel then?
Oh,wait it wont matter will it? Armageddon will have happened.
Stuck on Stupid can have disasterous consequences as our nation will learn from the Obama election.

Not sure about Hitler, but they sure backed Stalin’s action. And he wasn’t a lot nicer to the Jews than was the Austrian paper hanger.

"It’s spin, spin, spin, nothing more."

It very well may be, but this is the story that will get repeated on the three evening newscasts tonight.

18% is something to cheer about? That’s called desperate spin.

Dialog is actually “Haaretz-Dialog”

Haaretz is so far left and pro-arab it makes the NYT look like the National Review.

A joke T-shirt in Israel was “I Harretz (in shape of heart) Yasser Arafat”

It’s Haartz poll.

They have less connection with reality than Keith Olberfurer.

Read the thread first. Poll has no connection with reality.

Why do you, or anyone, for that matter, assume that all the “Israelis” in this poll are Jews? Do you know how many arabs live in Israel? How many Christians live in Israel?
Good grief. Israel is NOT all Jews.
Polls done exclusively with JEWS, bam is running 4% favorable and even THAT is too much.

A better name for that leftyist rag would be “Am Haaretz”!

Well, Over on another Thread (Pray For the peace Of Jerusalem), we are doing a detailed reading of Exodus.

Folks had just witnessed the Ten Plagues, and the Miraculous Liberation of 1.5 MILLION people, and immediately people start complaining:

“There weren’t enough GRAVES in Egypt, that you had to bring us out into this Wilderness????”

It is what it is.(sigh)

The modern State of Israel is a Miracle Too.

A poll released in August found only four percent of Israelis viewed Obama’s policies as “more pro-Israel” versus “more pro-Palestinian” or neutral.

http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSTRE61O0D320100225

JTitle of Reuter’s article: “Obama needs to get his poll numbers up — in Israel”

So from August to now Obama is suddenly popular. How convenient

No, it’s a Time+AP poll.

Which means they probably only polled Palestinians.
