Indiana Governor in Israel, Refuses Abbas Invitation to Dinner
Breitbart ^ | 27 Dec 2014 | Paul Miller

Posted on 12/27/2014 5:35:14 PM PST by Ooh-Ah

Republican Indiana Governor Mike Pence spent Christmas with his family in Israel, part of a nine-day trip that includes a three-day jobs mission to meet with government and business leaders to discuss expanding economic ties between Indiana and the Jewish State.

According to a Facebook post by Caroline Glick, senior contributing editor of The Jerusalem Post:

As a visiting dignitary, Pence and his family were invited to PLO chief Mahmoud Abbas’s annual Christmas dinner, where he was notified that a car would be sent to fetch him to Abbas’s office for an unscheduled and unsolicited meeting at 10:45pm.

Governor Pence in his inimitable wisdom, politely and firmly declined the summons.

Pence’s support for Israel is not new.

During his tenure as congressman, representing Indiana’s 2nd and 6th Districts, Pence was regarded as one of Israel’s staunchest supporters.

“His support for Israel and the safety and security of her people is genuine, not politically motivated in the least,” said Protect Our Heritage PAC Co-Chair, Peggy Shapiro. “I have always been impressed with his knowledge of the region and the threats against Israel’s existence. He is a truly genuine friend of the Jewish people.”

bttt

The left can freak out about a new untouchable. Pence is clean as Cruz. And Cruz is running under the radar.

Pence/Cruz. Makes Cruz President of the Senate, and not a second too soon.

I read this as ...”he went to the dinner, WHERE he was notified a car would take him for an unscheduled meeting... which he refused”...

Did he refuse the dinner or the meeting?

The most important post of 14' Txhrul, OMG you are flippin' brilliant.

The delicious schadenfreude-al deviousness of having Ted Cruz as the "Over-lord" over all his detractors, especially the octogenarians and septuagenarians who refuse to retire, all the other RINO's, miscreants, and malcontents who despise him of which many will refuse to retire in the 16' cycle and it will be too late for them to bow out by the time such a decision is made to secure him as a running mate.

Oh is that a dish served cold, it is not the Article V changes we would want in the Senate, but it is a dang good start.

In 1995 the Clinton White House condemned then NYC Mayor Rudy Guiliani for ejecting PLO Chairman/Terrorism Director from a concert in New York City. Rudy goes down in history as an elected official the highest integrity in the evil face of the terrorist PLO directors. The NYTimes article about it, by David Firestone on Oct. 25, 1995, not surprisingly, was, in keeping with the NYT tradition of whitewashing vile, mass-murdering despots, sympathetic to the terrorist Arafat’s friends, the Clintons.

Who can forget the disgusting photos of Hillary kissing Mrs. Arafat, the terrorist chief’s wife? Mahmood Abbas, Arafat’s blood-on-hands advisor on how and when to carry out terrorist attacks, now wears Western suits and runs the terrorist Palestinian Authority himself. The Clintons’ sucking up to these mass murdering criminals goes way back.

No Senator or Congressman should give the Palestinian Authority the time of day or any money. Current funding of them by the U.S. should cease immediately, since they never abide by any agreement they sign and just keep carrying out Islamic terrorist mass murdering attacks. All funds should be cut off from the Palestinian Authroity for their hate-mongering incitement and carrying out of terrorism.

Yes. Up until recent years, the U.S. support for murdering Arab terrorists like the socalled PA and Abbas — was just disgusting. Now, with obama’s vast expansion of support ( and repeated military actions and supplying and fundjng) for the spread of islamoNazi terrorist control throughout the world ( and his accelerated importation of same into USA), we are forced to face an existential crisis — we are being subverted and sold out by “ our” politicians — just like in so many European countries. Quite frankly, I hope to be dead before they come to kill us here in our homes.
So to heck with it, I guess. We aren’t able, it seems, to rally the citizenry to demand this sell- out and subversion end ( and be reversed!!). We’ve been failing. The masses are just too “ into” denial and their various electronic toys to care. Our children will have to deal with it. If they can. It seems quite obvious , now anyway, that it will be too late for them - even if they suddenly wake up. Hopefully, that’s wrong and they will be able to save themselves and their families from slavery and worse. Pray for America.
