...Catcalls and Bronx cheers, mostly directed against the Obama administration but also at Israeli-Palestinian peace talks, have been a distinguishing feature of the annual event since its debut in 2012. The biggest difference this year was the presence on stage of an actual Obama administration official to heckle. And the audience took full advantage of the opportunity...
...The first conference , in 2012, featured former Mossad chief Meir Dagan calling then-environmental affairs minister Gilad Erdan a “liar” and Erdan firing back that Dagan was “sabotaging Israeli security.”
The New York audience, on the other hand, is always heavily salted with the Post’s core readership of aging pro-Israel hardliners, usually about one-third Orthodox and mostly eager to spring to Israel’s defense against any enemies, even when they’re IDF generals.
On-stage mentions of Obama consistently get the same response as Haman in a synagogue on Purim.
The warmest reception is reserved each year for the Post’s lead columnist, the poison-penned right-wing scourge Caroline Glick, who draws repeated cheers and standing ovations as she delivers her stock attacks on liberals, the media, the two-state solution and President Obama...
Caroline Glick is an Israeli patriot. Because she tell it like it is in the ME, her leftie critics get the vapors just like this one.
