Allen West on Obama Backing Palestinian Demand: ‘Could Be the Beginning of the End’ for Israel

Tea Party Rep. Allen West has just issued a response to Obama‘s announcement that he backs the Palestinians’ demand that Israel redraw its borders to where they were in 1967. Not only did he call the move the “most egregious foreign policy decision” the administration has made, but he also feared this “could be the beginning of the end as we know it for the Jewish state.”

“The pre-1967 borders endorsed by President Obama would deny millions of the world’s Jews access to their holiest site and force Israel to return the strategically important Golan Heights to Syria, a known state-sponsor of terrorism,” West said in an e-mail.

“Resorting to the pre-1967 borders would mean a full withdrawal by the Israelis from the West Bank and the Jewish neighborhoods of East Jerusalem. Make no mistake, there has always been a Nation of Israel and Jerusalem has been and must always be recognized as its rightful capital.”

He concluded with some harsh criticisms: “President Obama has not stood for Israel or the Jewish people and has made it clear where the United States will stand when Palestine attempts to gain recognition of statehood by the United Nations. The President should focus on the real obstacle to security- the Palestinian leadership and its ultimate goal to eliminate Israel and the Jewish people.”

West has been an outspoken supporter of Israel in the past. Back in January he delivered a speech at the Americans Against Hate Pro-Israel Conference in Fort Lauderdale, FL:

West wasn’t the only one to respond with harsh criticism. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called the 1967 lines “indefensible.”

If the UN granted parts of Texas to Mexico would there be a war?

Obama has a cobra by the tail, and had better watch his step. The Israelis don’t play by the same rules that the US plays by.

"Indefensible". Nah, I don't think so, and believe that something was lost in the translation.

I'm pretty sure that in Hebrew, Netanyahu actually told Barry to, 'Go To Hell'.

Obama is effectively igniting war between Israel and it’s many enemies that could end in a nuclear conflagration.

That is exactly right. 0bungles has been throwing matches all over the world and this time he may have just tossed one into the powder magazine.

He has most of what we need.

But if drafted can he get elected?

Black people are not going to abandon Obama for Allen West.
He isn’t black enough for them, they may even label him an Uncle Tom. The Jews are going to vote for Obama no matter what he does to Israel. Don’t ask me why, I cannot tell you. They cannot tell you, but they will.Liberals don’t want to get anywhere near Allan West. The Femi-nazi Dykes have the man they want. They only care about being allowed to murder the unborn.Hispanics are looking forward to more handouts and more welcomes to illegals from Obama, they won’t vote for him.Then we have the Muslims, I don’t even need to tell you who they want.

We are going to have a tough time beating Obama this electionj.Many sycophants and free loaders, politically correct a-holes.

How pathetic is this? - obama is a half white communist who is keeping blacks on the plantation, but West isn’t black enough for them.

I guess it really is a post-racial world.

It’s not the lack of color that makes him not black enough.

It’s the mindset. West doesn’t believe anyone owes him anything.
He isn’t crying for reparations or an affirmative action job.
He doesn’t expect to be handed anything he doesn’t earn.
He doesn’t hate white’s.He doesn’t hate hard work.
He got to be a Lt. Col. because he earned that rank.

If elected he will pick the best people for the job, not his friends.

Yep, that’s what is so pathetic: blacks clinging to everything opposite of what a strong man like Cain embodies.

The world needs more men like Cain and Netanyahu.

Well... the Fox and Friends show just presented Romney and Pawlenty and pee pawed Cain. Also saying if Christie or someone else hops in; in the fall, they may save us all.

I am very concerned about the folks that say they will write in Palin’s name even if she does not run. As well, I am also very concerned that Palin has hinted as running third party.I agree with what Trump said about this,when he thought about doing it he took it back and said he would not do it because it would split the vote and elect Obama.

Trump never meant to run in the first place.IMO he was clearing the Birther issue for Obama so Obama wouldn’t have to fight it later. It was fun while it lasted, but Obama was still allowed to pass off a phony Birth Certificate.

I believe Palin is too smart to run. I have more respect for Huckabee than I ever had before when he showed he was smarter than I thought he was and decided not to run.

Romney wants the job to soothe his ego. No one smart enough to be President actually wants the job as Obama keeps crying about what he inherited, just think about what the next President will inherit from this Muslim, Obama .The mess Obama has made will take two generations to repair ,if it ever is.

We need to worry more about getting rid of RINO’s in the Senate and replace them with Conservatives than anything else. Obama could be neutered by the right Congress, and that is our only prayer, as guilt ridden whites ,blacks, Jews ,Homosexuals,Womens libbers,Muslims, Hispanics, and abortionists will probably place him back in for another 4 years.

By the way if Romney is the candidate elected by the RINO’s I would write in Donald Duck before voting for the “Father “ of Obamacare.

The Establishment Republicans hold the key, my FRiend. I voted for John Mc Cain and swore that I would never again knowingly vote for another RINO. If that means write in, third party, or the re-election of obama, so be it!

Screw the establishment GOP. I am a registered Independent voter. If you write in Palin or Fred Smith that is your business. I understand your anger and reasoning but do not agree with it.
