See! Obama really is a friend of Israel!
The media is trying to repaint the picture to get the Jewish vote back...
Sounds like the left is worried about the Jewish votes.
As I recall Bush approved this request, but then Obama left them on Diego Garcia for the past 2 years. Did he finally allow the final shipment?
If I remember correctly, Obama then refused to sell Israel the planes necessary to deliver these bombs...
Because B.O. is the first Jewish President doncha see.
And Bush? Not quite s’much.
Thus sayeth Newsweek.
If youd like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

I don't believe the article is true. There have been numberous articles indicating that while Obama did approve the transfer, GWB didn't, but he "delivered" them to Israel at Diego Garcia, essentially useless without US consent.
Alternate explanation being that his Saudi masters are soiling their sheets at the prospect of the Persian Bomb and pressing for something to be done about it, even if that means surreptitious support for Israel to do the deed.
