UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - U.S. President Barack Obama said on Wednesday that too many Israelis were ready to abandon a bid for peace in the region and, in a departure from his prepared remarks, added that this was something Israelis should think about.

"The violence engulfing the region today has made too many Israelis ready to abandon the hard work of peace," Obama told the United Nations General Assembly during a 38-minute speech addressing many of the world's problems.

Then, departing from printed remarks made available to reporters beforehand, Obama added: "And that’s something worthy of reflection within Israel."

"Because let’s be clear: the status quo in the West Bank and Gaza is not sustainable. We cannot afford to turn away from this effort – not when rockets are fired at innocent Israelis, or the lives of so many Palestinian children are taken from us in Gaza," Obama said, speaking a week before he is due to host Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House.

His comments followed a seven-week Gaza war between Israel and the Palestinian militant group Hamas that ended in late August with an Egyptian-brokered ceasefire.

Just like Obama to criticize our Allies but never the real culprits while he's at the UN. Our president is a COWARD.

FUBO.

Hey Obamadork, why not fly to one of those stinkin’ pseudo muzzie countries where ISIS exists and serve as a forward air controller for the strikes?

Our military promises (cross their hearts) to get those cruise missile coordinates correct.

Maybe so, but at least they were willing to take a bona fide shot at peace in the first place. This cannot be said for any Muslim groups.

Haven’t you seen the internet videos of devout Jews slicing the heads off of muslims, and eating their internal organs?

Oh - nevermind. THEY DON’T EXIST. (Those tricky Jews.)

May The Lord protect Israel and her people wherever they may be.

I hope this means the dumb, naive, Infidel Israelis are starting to realize they can't talk their way into a peaceful settlement with the Muslims. -Tom

The problem is not too many Israelis being ready to abandon peace. The problem is too many muslims have never even TRIED peace.

It's the Jews fault!! The Jews are the cause of war.......

Copying the herald call of Adolph Hitler. Maybe Obama's "War against war" is his version of the final solution.

Israel ignored our Muslim President when it went into Gaza for an extended time so this is how the the faggy little idiot tries to get back at Israel.

All Israel did was copy Putin and smack him down
