Obama Continues to Snub Israeli Leaders, Refuses All NY Meetings
Arutz Sheva - Israel National News ^ | 9/20/2012, 3:26 PM | Rachel Hirshfeld

Tensions between Israel and the current U.S. administration further deteriorated last week when President Barack Obama refused to meet with Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu during his upcoming visit to New York, where he will address the UN General Assembly.

The White House insisted that the meeting would not take place due to the president’s pressing “campaign obligations” which would take him out of New York.

Obama has further snubbed Israeli leaders by refusing to meet with Defense Minister Ehud Barak, who will also be in New York next week, WND news station reported.

I think there’s the possibility he’s scared.

Obama got 77% of the Jewish vote last time and I bet he takes the same this time, too. They knew what he was last time around but most Jews are liberal.

I saw a poll about 2 weeks ago that had him at 59% of the Jewish vote - before the latest nonsense in the Mideast and the repeated snubs of Bibi, which should cut into even that diminished number.

Yet, he has the Jewish vote locked up! Any guesses if another Hitler could come to power (hint: Maybe it's Barry)?

Israel is on her own.

Which is good in a way. Let them take the action they need to, without worrying about the US>

To win Florida? Obama, and his people with the supposedly stellar campaign skills, are idiots.

Someone please tell me: How can any Jewish American who loves the homeland, vote for B. Hussein Obama? I’m confused.

Romney just met with him on his trip to the Olympics in England and then on to Israel.

And even if he has the Jewish vote locked up,in terms of actual numbers it really doesn't amount to much.

What is really of great import is where is the Jewish money,that may very well be with Obama and that is what counts.

With all due respect, the only place the Jewish vote matters is Florida. NY is heavily Jewish, but it’s going for Obama anyhow. Hopefully, Obama has alienated 5-10 percent of the Jewish population that could make the difference if Florida is close. But, don’t forget folks: The Dems had a Conservative Jew for their VP in 2000 and still lost.

Your #31, excellent points. It really might not matter the Jewish vote outside of FLA.

They don’t look at Israel as the “homeland”.

This whole scenario of him not meeting with the Jews, but meeting with the Muslim brotherhood needs to be made into an ad and broadcasted across America.

If Israel goes down, so goes the United States as our spiritual underpinnings will have been destroyed. America’s Christian community and small Jewish religious minority will not be able to sustain themselves with their Old Testament underpinnings torn asunder, left open then to the struggle twixt Islam and Communism...which Islam will ultimately win as it believes in something other than the self.

The world’s days will become even more filled with Evil, and darker than ever before.

Obama, as a Muslim, knows this, and is determined to bring it, even is it means eventually martyring himself, not caring for his family, nor anything other than jihad, and taking as many of us as he can with him.

As We, as a nation - and Israel - have always needed God’s help, We certainly need it now.
