The Obama administration has announced the United States will join the United Nations Alliance of Civilizations, another openly anti-Israel organization.
The group was created in 2006 to find ways to bridge the growing divide between Muslim and Western societies – a goal wholeheartedly embraced by President Barack Obama, who has redirected American foreign policy in pursuit of the same goal.
The White House announcement stated that the move is intended to realize Obama's “vision of active U.S. engagement with other nations and international organizations,” a goal sometimes pursued, noted National Review Online columnist Brett D.

ping! I know this is where we are going, but it is a terrible thing to watch.
It would seem American Jews are liberals first, Jews second.
I can understand why he is doing this (besides being born Muslim) but there comes a point when it just looks weak. I think we passed that point.
HIDEOUSNESS FROM HELL TO THE MAX.
He who rides hell’s pony gets bucked into lake of fire.
