In an interview with NBC News late last week, President Barack Obama attempted to justify why he has not visited Israel since becoming president.
"The truth of the matter is, there are a number of countries I didn't visit,” Obama said. “I visited Israel just a couple of months before I was president."
"Given how important I think the situation in the Middle East is and our partnership with Israel, which is stronger than it’s ever been, when I go to Israel, I want to make sure that we are actually moving something forward,” the president continued.
While Obama did not elaborate on what he meant by “moving something forward,” it is likely that he was referring to peace negotiations, which have been deadlocked during his presidency.
The Romney campaign fired back with a statement calling Obama's Middle East foreign policy a "failure."
"After promising to make peace a top priority, the president sought to place ‘daylight’ between the United States and Israel, and failed to engage in the peace process," said Romney spokeswoman Amanda Henneberg. "His excuse for not visiting Israel is that ‘there are a number of countries’ he ‘didn't visit.’ But President Obama fails to recognize that Israel isn’t just any other country — it is our closest ally in the Middle East. As President, Mitt Romney’s first overseas trip will be to Jerusalem, and under a Romney Administration, the world will never question America’s solidarity with Israel.”

There is only ONE reason Obama did not go to Israel.
BS Obama. Why don’t you just go ahead and tell the truth for once and admit you’re Muslim, hate Israel, and are an ally of the very nations that commit terrorist acts against them and the U.S. Obama is a traitor!
Maybe Zero just got confused....After all he though Hawaii was part of Asia! LOL

Lose, liar...LOSE...
BTW has this schmuck uttered a single peep about all of the Christians getting killed in Nigeria? Or would that upset CAIR?
He didn’t go to Israel because he favors standing with the ME instead of our true ally there.
He didn’t go to Israel because he treated BiBi with huge disrespect and he knows it.
Obama got on his pulpit in Cairo and let the Muslim world where he stood.

Glad he didn’t come after what happened in Egypt. He would have destoryed Israel.
Barry is always ready with an excuse and a bony finger to point out the real culprit.
So he openly admits that he moved nothing forward in the Middle East in four years. Funny how the MSM missed that. Hm.
He doesn’t want to take the chance, now, of Netanyahu being able to reciprocate the treatment he received from Obama. Obama can’t take it...he’s a wimp.
