What I Saw in Israel

What will Obama see when he visits Israel: unfinished business.

[Diogenesis]

Israel is a free country which supports capitalism,
innovation and truth.
These are four things which the current
Tyrant-without-Documentation hates and works to destroy
with the full abdication of Congress.

[ryan71]

He may see it but he won’t SEE it (accept it).

[GBA]

After reading history and after reading ahead in the Bible, I really hope the Jews in Israel finally have a clear picture of what's going on, what's expected and why. Same for everyone else.

This thing we call "life" may feel like being caught inside a massive psych experiment/role playing video game, but it's definitely not a game. More like a test. Pass or fail.

[Hoodat]

I would encourage anyone and everyone to visit Israel and see for yourselves what it’s actually like there. You will quickly discover that the American press has been lying to you for the last three decades.

[knarf]

All eyes are open, but what they see can be vastly divergent from each other.

Indeed ... some are open and are blind.

[Servant of the Cross]

I saw a once barren land – a land once described by Mark Twain as “a desolate country…. a silent and mournful expanse” - now fruitful and ripe. Everything the Israelis have touched seems to have come alive and then some.

And on the banks, on both sides of the river, there will grow all kinds of trees for food. Their leaves will not wither nor their fruit fail, but they will bear fresh fruit every month, because the water for them flows from the sanctuary. Their fruit will be for food, and their leaves for healing.” ... Ezekiel 47: 12

[stuartcr]

Wow, it’s like you were in a completely different country!

[COBOL2Java]

Yes, I pray that when the president of the United States lands in Israel, for his first time, that he sees what I saw.

Hear this, you foolish and senseless people,
who have eyes but do not see,
who have ears but do not hear:
- Jeremiah 5:21

[JimRed]

If Obama gets within a hundred feet of a young Israeli carrying one of those scary-looking assault weapons, he’ll crap his drawers!

[rktman]

I wish I could afford the trip. I’ve heard many good things about the country and how it has become so self sustaining to a large extent. I whole heartedly support Israel. I have a lot of respect for our “big brother”, as someone said in response to Star’s article. Sadly hussein won’t get it because he’d rather side with the plo/hammas/hezbollah and raise money for a yassar(that’s my baby)arrafat peace memorial. WHAT? (Maybe they can hold a rachel corie pancake breakfast to raise money)

[Kaslin]

Bump

[KeyLargo]

I have a co-worker that is Jewish and a big-time Obama supporter. She has been in Israel for a month now, with her relatives anxiously waiting to see her President.

[Kaslin]

You can be sure that he will not listen to Benjamin Netanyahu or anyone else but will instead demand that they listen to him

[tommix2]

Star Parker has come along way since she was a teenager, and now she writes a masterpiece such as this. G-d Bless her.
Thank you, Star

[Joe Boucher]

Obammy is going to Israel for a few photo opps and to crap on the Israelis and promote a homeland for the palestinian scourge in what is now part of Israel.
Oh well, American Jews could care less, why should I???

[Gertie]

How much less could they care Joe? It's “Couldn't care less”, at least have the courtesy to spout off with a little substance, not just to hear yourself sound stupid. Now kill the messenger, that's about your speed.

[Joe Boucher]

Hey Gertie,
Forgive me if I’m missing something but didn’t American Jews support this antiIsrael American president overwhelmingly for re-election knowing that he was a huge moosie supporter?
Sort of like cutting their noses off to spite their faces?
But Hey there Gert you go girl, fool

[SgtHooper]

I agree with you Joe. I wish someone could please explain this conundrum to me—why the US Jews vote overwhelmingly for El Stupido in the WH, he drops a load on them routinely in the public forum, and yet they continue to support him. Not sure I can accept the zombie effect on US Jews, but maybe it affects them as well.
