Philistines to Palestinians. Either one a thorn in Israel’s side.

See, there’s one he can actually fulfill - it’s already been done. “Palestine” is now called “Jordan.”

Wasn't sure about that line. It was not clear if it was part of the title. That is why I put it in the first lines of the post below.

Matter of fact, when posting, you are only allowed a certain number of characters and then FR cuts it off.

I was being sarcastic. Sorry, I forgot the ‘/s’ tag.

Hey Idiot:

There already is one. It's called "Jordan" (and Syria, and Lebanon)

ummm....

I’m guessing “make every effort” ranks even a bit behind “will not rest”; which puts this pretty low on the Obama priority/commitment list....

somewhere behind...

-full employment,
-capped oil well,
-cleaned gulf environment,
-when not one single veteran falls into homelessness,
-the dream of health care reform is finally achieved in the United States of America,
-until we build an economy that’s ready for America’s future,

I'd hope for the wrath of God on him and his administration to start.
