As the debate about excessive police force against unarmed civilians rages throughout the U.S., the Obama administration is involving itself again in the case of an American teen severely beaten by members of the police force of Israel, a U.S. ally with whom there already exist increased tension.
CNN has learned that White House National Security Council staffers recently took the unusual step of meeting in the West Wing with Tariq Khdeir, the Tampa teenager of Palestinian descent beaten unconscious by Israeli police last summer during a protest in East Jerusalem. According to cell phone video, after Tariq was in custody and lying on the ground, clearly not resisting arrest, an Israeli police officer kicked and punched him in the head and upper body.
"The U.S. government has remained closely engaged with Tariq and his family since his return from Jerusalem," a White House official confirms to CNN. "As part of the follow-up on pending issues related to his case, National Security Council staff met with the Abu Khdeirs recently."
Tariq's mother Suha told CNN that Tariq "has changed" and may now have PTSD because of the beating, which was captured on cell phone video.

How about him meeting with the dozens of Israelis recently attacked and stabbed on the street by Muzzies.
How about the Israelis deliberately run over on sidewalks by vehicles driven by Muzzies. Hey, they ran down Jews, Arabs and visiting Christians.
Where did Obama come from, he isn’t an American or a Christian.
ODumby dont care about anyone but the ones who create havoc. This means mudslims. I believe this is just to cause more riots in Israel because his pick did not win the election after he sent all his people there to win against Bibi.

Tariq was one of several protesters arrested, the Associated Press reported. A spokeswoman for the Israeli police said he was resisting arrest and using a slingshot to hurl stones at officers.
He certainly picks some peculiar battles..
Nah a sling shot isn’t dangerous, it only killed Goliath
Obama never misses a chance to crap on Israel.
So, are the Obama-ites going to demand that Israeli police be put under their “gxd’s” control as well?
Wow, those are well fed Palestinians. I wonder who is subsidizing their EBT cards? Probably the printed US Dollar
