Somebody should explain to Barack Obama that displaying chutzpah in those statements is not the same as showing solidarity with Israel.
Netenyahu has been working with Greece for some time, using Greece’s concern about the Turks as leverage.
So that is why Greece stopped that stupid flotilla, including the appropriately named ship “The Audacity of Hope.”
I find mysef amused. Perhaps some of the people on that flotilla will find themselves in a Greek jail.
No one has mentioned the fact that Obama flew to a state where he spoke to Alcoa workers, praising them for their expertise in aluminum production, just before his Press Conference where he excoriates people who use private jets.
Guess who are purchasers of the special aluminum made in the very same Alcoa factory?

I think the moderator is Shannon Brene. She has been taking over on Special Report some for Bret.
