Do Israelis Really Think the U.S. Will Come to Their Aid?
Gatestone Institute ^ | March 15, 2015 | Bassam Tawil

Posted on 03/15/2015 11:05:14 AM PDT by Publius804

There is about to be a mistake. The only country in the region of which all the other countries are envious -- for opportunity, equal justice under law, freedom to speak without the 2 a.m. knock on the door -- has an election this week. Its citizens are tired of war -- right on schedule for its enemies' plans to destroy it. The Israelis are meant to be tired of war; that is why it is called "a war of attrition."

Many Israelis seem to be counting on some deeply wished-for love from the current U.S. Administration. What they may not want to see is that their unrequited love for the U.S. runs far deeper than any disagreement with Israel's current prime minister. Just ask Syria, ask Iraq, ask Yemen, ask Libya, ask Saudi Arabia, ask the Emirates, ask Kuwait, ask Egypt. The current U.S. Administration does not even send weapons to help; it sends meals-ready-to-eat, perhaps with the occasional unserious bombing, and tells others to do any serious work themselves. Israel and the rest of us in the region -- as Iran has already encircled all the oil fields and is now taking over Iraq -- have no more to look forward to than that.

Under the Muslim Radical Obama?

A few of the leftist Jews in Israel may be under that delusion, but I doubt most Israelis believe that Obama will help Israel. On the contrary, he is wants to Destroy Israel.

Obama’s presidency is a window of opportunity for Israel’s enemies to take action.

The US currently gives Israel almost $10 million per day in direct aid and another $8 billion per year in loan guarantees. That’s love enough for me.

I remember many years ago Bubba said if Israel was attacked he would “ grab a rile and get in fox hole” or something close. My Mom and I looked at each other and said …did you hear that and then LOL cause the image was funny.

The Administration has been secretly working on the Israeli Evacuation and Relocation Plan for 6 years. In cooperation with the EU, the Arab League and UN inter-agencies for refugee placement they have a plan to share the load of those Jews who must leave what little territory is left after the final disposition of Eretz Israel is achieved. Haven’t your wondered why the DHS has built those remote camps around the country? Welcome back Eliezer, we have room for you, here.

If Netanyahu loses this week, Israel will have committed suicide. Obama will lead the Israelis to the cliff and push them over. Obama has worked hard to protect Iran and give it time to finish its nuclear weapons program and he is not about to allow Israel to mess up his plans for a vast expansion of radical Islam into a world threatening Caliphate. It will indeed be sad to watch the Israeli Left eagerly participate in their own destruction

Not as long as b.h. obammy is the American president.
He is a mooselimb that hates Israel.
But then so do a great many American Jews as they overwhelmingly voted for this poser fag,

The Israeli left has always flirted with national suicide. What’s different now is they can do it for real.

Hezog and Tzipi are planing on siding with Obizmo on his Iran nuke deal, which will allow Israel to lose both Egypt and Saudi and possibly Jordan as allies. But wait there’s more!

They plan to restart the “peace process” without any one to talk to, so a return to pre-67 borders is assured as a gesture of good faith.

With the county whittled down and without defensible borders, Hamas and Hezbollah will begin the final push into what’s left.

At some point, Iran will lob a nuke off the Israeli coast, finishing off the remnants.

The Israeli Left will hold a wake a Shimon Peres’ place, assuming it isn’t washed away and that any Hebrews are still among the living.

How sick must a population be to participate in their own murder. Politicians who do this must be planning to rule over the bones of their citizens from somewhere protected and far away.

Exactly what we are doing here in case you haven't noticed.

I’ve noticed; the only difference is we already have a leadership that is ideologically committed to our enslavement or destruction by the Islamists along with the establishment of a world wide Caliphate.

“How sick must a population be to participate in their own murder?”

That is the question of the millenium!

After all, we elected Ophonybama twice, didn’t we?

“Stupid is as stupid does!” and “We have seen the enemy, and he is us!” both seem to apply here, don’t they?
