Clinton Thanks Olmert for Gaza Transfer(Obama cutting hamas a check Part 2)
INN ^ | 2/6/09

Posted on 02/06/2009 3:35:51 AM PST by Tigen

IsraelNN.com) United States Secretary of State Hillary Clinton thanked Prime Minister Ehud Olmert Thursday for transferring 150 million shekels to the Fatah faction in Gaza, according to Ynet. In a phone call to Olmert, Clinton said the money supports the moderates.

The money is officially supposed to those who are defined as Palestinian Authority employees in Gaza, but since Hamas controls the southern Mediterranean coastal area, military and diplomatic sources fear that the funds will go to those serving Hamas, if not to terror groups. Defense Minister Ehud Barak and Clinton's counterpart, Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni, opposed the transfer, which faces a challenge from the Legal Forum for the Land of Israel.

Billary is praising one of her own. They’re both all to familiar with scandal. Olmert has been accused by his own gov. of “serious failure in exercising judgement, responsibility and prudence”. Which is exactly the definition of the Clinton legacy.

“In a phone call to Olmert, Clinton....expressed disappointment that Olmert’s idiocy had insured the election of Benjamin Netanyahu in Feb. 10’s election.”

And this my friend is exactly why 0, Billary and other terrorist sympathizers are pumping money into Gaza and Palestinian interests in such a feverish pace. This coming Tuesday will see the first overwhelming repudiation of 0bama and his terrorist enabling policies.

There are so many Islamic terror groups in the Middle East it can be a challenge to tell who is who. I have put together this handy dandy ID card for FReepers to aid them in properly identifying various groups.

FACTBOX-Contenders to lead Israel after Feb. 10 election

* BENJAMIN NETANYAHU. Netanyahu, who threw his support behind Israel’s Gaza offensive, has maintained a narrow lead in opinion polls. Prime minister from 1996 to 1999 and leader of the opposition Likud party since Former Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, Olmert and others defected to Kadima. Educated in the United States, he became a decorated commando. As finance minister under Sharon from 2003, Netanyahu, 59, pursued economic reforms that are credited by many for economic growth.

Thanks appleseed. I plead guilty in not keeping up with the Israeli election. I also plead guilty in being a big supporter of Netanyahu for many years.

“I also plead guilty in being a big supporter of Netanyahu for many years.”

I've been following him since he appeared on CNN Crossfire as a regular contributor many years ago. He has vowed to crush Hamas in Gaza and deal with the Iran nuke threat. His election will put the 0 administration in a panic mode.

...Clinton said the money supports the moderates.

Nothing unusual that Her Royal Thighness would think of Fatah as "moderate." Remember that Fatah was Arafat's organization. The Clintons had Arafat as WH guest more than any foreign dignitary during their tenure. Then there was HRC's infamous kiss of Mrs. Arafat directly following Mrs. A's tirade against Israel.

So it all fits together logically: The Witch is a Fatah gal!

Rahm Emanuel sure isn’t doing his job for the “International Jewish Conspiracy,” is he? [/sarcasm]

Never thought that Emmanuel was anywhere near as pro-Israel as the MSM made him out to be at the time of his appointment as O's consigliere.
