But I thought that the complaining about Jerusalem “settlements” was a brand new objection? This man is evil.
DumBO is the obstacle.
At some point, will he notice that while Israel might or might not have done “enough,” the Palis haven’t done ANYTHING?
What’s your take on this?
Any Jewish person that votes for Obama is a fool he clearly sides with the Muslims against our allies.
If The Zero took the same stance about illegal Mexicans coming and settling in the US - we wouldn’t have half the illegal immigration problems we have now.
...Obama made clear in a recent letter to the Palestinians that he views Israel as the obstacle to peace and will approach further peace efforts from that point of view, according to senior Palestinian Authority officials. Chief Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat confirmed for the Bethlehem-based Ma'an news agency that such a letter was sent, and that in it Obama "clarified the US stance on the peace process and Israel's intransigence on the issue of settlements." Erekat said that the letter contained several assurances to the Palestinians, but refused to go into detail... That report would seem to fit with the more vague account of assurances another Palestinian official said the letter contained. PA secretary general Tayeb Abdel Rahim on Sunday told reporters that the letter made the usual commitments to an independent Palestinian state with territorial continuity. Rahim also said that Obama promised to start publicly assigning blame to those he sees holding up peace and to force Israel into indefinitely extending its temporary settlement freeze.Thanks EternalVigilance.
"It's really just a problem of perception."
Israel's Right to Defend Itself Is Not Negotiable Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton told the American Jewish Committee Thursday: "President Obama noted recently that there has been some of what he called 'noise and distortion' about this administration's approach in the Middle East. Over the past month, we have attempted to remove any ambiguity. The president and this administration have repeatedly reaffirmed our commitment to Israel's security in word and in deed."
"We have spoken out forcefully about the grave dangers of Syria's transfer of weapons to Hizbullah. We condemn this in the strongest possible terms and have expressed our concerns directly to the Syrian government. Transferring weapons to these terrorists - especially longer-range missiles - would pose a serious threat to the security of Israel....We do not accept such provocative and destabilizing behavior - nor should the international community."
"Regional peace must begin with the recognition by every party that the United States will always stand behind Israel's security and, as President Obama put it recently, 'no wedge will be driven between us. Now, we will have our differences, but when we do, we will work to resolve them as close allies.' Israel's right to exist, and to defend itself, is not negotiable. And no lasting peace will be possible unless that fact is accepted. But similarly, Palestinians must have a state of their own. They must be able to travel, conduct business, govern themselves, and enjoy the dignity of a sovereign people. There can be no equivocating on this either....We know we cannot and will not impose a solution. It is up to the parties themselves." (State Department)
I’m just wondering how far we should go with our support for the actions of the government of Israel.
Should it be the position of the government of the USA that it will always support the actions of the government of Israel? Should we support even those actions of Israel’s government that are against Israel’s own best interests? Should we support even those actions of Israel’s government that are against Israel’s own best interests, and which are also opposed by a majority of its own citizens? Finally, should the US government support the actions of the government of Israel which are contrary to the interests of the USA?
I’m not saying that any of the above apply in this situation. I’m just wondering where the lines should be drawn in our support for the actions of the government of Israel, or if our support should be unqualified in every regard.
What does this mean? Obama is promising that Gaza and the West Bank will no longer be divided with Israel in between?
This article will bring post raising the issue of Jewish voters voting for RATS/supporting obama. But I heard yesterday a group discussing how “he needs more time....”
I just shake my head.
Harry Truman should rise from the grave and kick Obama’s ass.
I don't think O is the anti-Christ, just a minion with power. He's not that smart but what he's doing IS anti-Christlike that obviously sides with the cult of peace little pieces;"I KILL YOU!"
He's certainly sh*tcanned our nation and since we're not mentioned in the Bible( possibly if one shreds the Hebrew and transliterations enough) I'd say he's the perfect candidate for taking us OUT of the world equation and ushering in the man who makes peace for 3.5 years then desecrates the new temple( not built yet of course). It's all hellfire and brimstone from there.
