Obama: 'Senseless slaughter' in West Bank won't stop peace talks (BIBI at WH again PICS)
Haaretz ^ | Latest update 19:44 01.09.10 | Haaretz Service

U.S. President Barack Obama on Wednesday described the fatal shooting of four Israelis in the West Bank as a senseless slaughter that will not stop the U.S. from seeking peace in the Middle East.

Obama spoke alongside Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu after the two met privately at the White House on Wednesday.

"I did want to specifically take some time out to speak to the people of Israel and to the region about the senseless slaughter that took place near Hebron yesterday," Obama said.

"There are going to be extremists and rejectionists who, rather than seeking peace, are going to be seeking destruction, and the tragedy that we saw yesterday, where people were gunned down on the street by terrorists who are purposely trying to undermine these talks, is an example of what we're up against," Obama continued.

Obama expressed condolences from the American people to the families of the terror victims, and said that the U.S. is unwavering in its support of Israel's security.

"The United States is going to be unwavering in its support of Israel's security, and we are going to push back against these kinds of terrorist activities," said the president.

Obama also sent a message to Hamas, which claimed responsibility for the attack.

"This is not going to stop us from not only ensuring a secure Israel, but also securing a longer-lasting peace in which people throughout the region can take a different course," said Obama.

The Hamas terrorist attacks merely reinforce the obvious truth that these Obama "peace talks" are and can't be anything more than a charade. That's not so much because Hamas is trying to subvert them, but because Israel has no "negotiating partner" with any interest in nor capability to subdue Hamas and other terrorist groups in either the West Bank or in Gaza or in Lebanon for that matter.

There can't be any Israeli-Palestinian peace until all Palestinian and other Islamic terrorists wishing to destroy Israel are brought to their knees. That means that Iran and Syria and other terrorist supporting states have to be neutered as well. Tying Israel's hands doesn't accomplish this, nor does Abbas possess any desire nor capability of doing so; after all, Abbas is a disciple of Yasser Arafat.

Exactly and Israels problem is they let the Palestinian in,like we are doing here with this Islamic rubbish.

I don’t remember Bibi ever looking so grim in a photo op type situation. He looks almost sad and resigned.

I don’t see him as sad or resigned. He looks grim, focused, and stoic. Obama looks like he just swallowed his lemon Jolly Rancher. Or poopied his pants. (My girls used to get that look after they had.)

Look at Obama. You can see it written on all over him.

All he cares about are his new chairs.

Cheesy chic seems to be their style. Nothing goes with anything. It’s a bad mix. The best example at least in the pictures is I am assuming a photograph or poster in a frame over the statue of the rider on a horse. Now that is cheesy chic. Very poor taste.

I would be embarrassed to be be their decorator. The sofas are the worst in that situation and the coffee table looks like it could be purchased at the local garage sale. Everything is probably expensive and it just goes to show you expensive doesn’t mean good.

But, since when have the Obamas had taste except for high priced food and clothes which are also a mess?

Proof that Hans Christian Andersen was writing a documentary, not fiction, when he wrote “The Emperor’s New Clothes.”

Every time I see the Obama's fashion choices, the vision of the bowing and scraping sycophants in the tale runs through my mind.

And the sycophants must have contempt for the Obamas also.

I’ve said this before and I’ll say this again — the Palestinian problem with Israel is NOT territorial, it is EXISTENTIAL.

As long as Israel EXISTS as a nation, that part of the region will NEVER have peace.

That’s jut thr reality.

Obama and any president in the past and the future will continue doing what they’re doing because they’re EXPECTED to do it. Nothing will ever come out of it.
