President Barack Obama launched into a passionate defense of his policy on Israel, accusing critics of distorting the facts on his Middle East record. Again.
Obama, speaking at a Union for Reform Judaism event in Maryland, doubled-down on his record, saying that no administration has done more in support of Israel’s security.
“Don't let anyone else tell you otherwise, it is a fact,” the president said. “America's commitment and my commitment to Israel and Israel’s security is unshakeable -- It is unshakeable."
“As president, I have never wavered in pursuit of a just and lasting peace -- two states, two people,” Obama said. “That is our shared vision.”
He clarified that lasting peace can’t be imposed from the outside, but ultimately Israelis and Palestinians need to come to agreement on divisive issues.
“The fact that peace is hard can't deter us from trying,” he said. “Don't let anyone else tell a different story … Those are the facts.”

"I know how much that story means to many of you, because I know how much that story means to me. My father was from Kenya; my mother was from Kansas -- not places with a large Jewish community," said Obama. "But when my Jewish friends tell me about their ancestors, I feel a connection. I know what it's like to think, 'Only in America is my story even possible.'" Wow he has Jewish friends? I somehow doubt that.
He lies!
Good grief. There must be at least some days when the MSM actully realizes that being in the tank for Obama is really skinny dipping in a masssive septic system.
“He lies”
He just has somewhat flexible definitions of “Israel”, “security” and “commitment”. “Israel” might turn out to be a postage-stamp sized piece of submerged, offshore real estate in the vicinity of Tel Aviv. “Security” might consist of a “strongly worded statement” in defense of that. And “commitment” might mean a heartfelt expression of disappointment when that statement is ignored.
HIS policy ... not Israel's.
Nodoubtaboutit, he is the WORST (and most DANGEROUS) Pres this country has EVER had!!!
Beware what the other hand is doing....
While he states he is supporting Israel, he is pushing the Arab spring and Libya at a faster rate totally changing the odds and outcome....
"Don't let anyone else tell you otherwise, it is a fact, ... America's commitment and my commitment to Israel and Israel's security is unshakeable -- It is unshakeable. As president, I have never wavered in pursuit of a just and lasting peace -- two states, two people, .... That is our shared vision... The fact that peace is hard can't deter us from trying, ... Don't let anyone else tell a different story ... Those are the facts."The fact that peace is impossible can't deter us from telling the racist jihadists to go piss up a rope. And as long as the rope is around, we should hang them with it until they're dead, dead, dead.
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Not to mention giving the enemy that drone.
and copter.
And NASA technologies,
Let alone the home grown mus infiltration of the labs, production lines and military...
Is this the same President Obama who just surrendered intact America’s most advanced state-of-the-art unmanned aircraft to Israel’s most dangerous enemy - Iran?
One and same. . .
I guess that Nixon airdropping supplies during the '73 War just doesn't measure up to the lies that Obama is spinning.
“Don't let anyone else tell you otherwise, it is a fact”
So basically, this is all about Obama and how people perceive him. It has nothing at all to do with his policy and everything to do with what people are saying about him. More "I . . . I . . . I . . . me . . . me . . . me" from the narcissist-in-chief.
The world sees how you blame Israel for Palestines lobbing rockets into their cities.
And how you have turned over Egypt, Libya and soon to be Syria over to the radical muslim brother hood who have vowed to destroy Israel.
Israel doesn't need your kind of friendship Bari!
