Obama Links Hamas Attacks With 'Unbearable' Israeli Occupation
Newsmax ^ | November 5, 2023 | Eric Mack

Posted on 11/05/2023 8:14:59 AM PST by Navy Patriot

Former President Barack Obama is coming under scrutiny for his recent remarks on Israel’s war on Hamas, giving moral equivalence to the Oct. 7 terrorist attacks by linking them with Israel’s “occupation” of Palestinian lands.

“What Hamas did was horrific and there’s no justification for it,” Obama said, following that statement immediately by saying, “And what is also true is that the occupation and what’s happening to Palestinians is unbearable.”

Obama made the remarks Friday at his Foundation’s “Democracy Forum.” Video excerpts of Obama’s comments were posted Pod Save America’s X page.

Heard it on The Five, the Democrat actually mentioned it, not the Republicans.

What is also true is that the Palestinians have rejected a two state solution on at least five separate occasions preferring to play victims and to host numerous terrorist organizations. For those of us old enough to observe these generational conflicts the story remains the same and only the actors have changed.

Geez, you would think Gaza was under the iron boot of Israeli Jews prior to 10/7. Someone needs a lesson in recent history. Perhaps Obama could learn that while rotting in prison for the rest of his life.

What occupation?

The Occupation of Crushing Terrorism, like one's Occupation can be Auto Mechanic, Wheat Farmer, Cattle Rancher, Fisherman (I know a really good one), Musician, Historian, Terrorist Crusher, Wine Maker, Policeman, there are a lot of occupations.

There is even an Occupation of being a Fake American.

I link America’s destruction with Obama’s ongoing occupation of the U.S. government.

Obozo must have or is being well paid by Soros. It gave Soros an open door to the White House and the opportunity to buy a $14 million hut in New England States.

The Weather Underground never went away. Just changed tactics. They became schoolteachers and infiltrated and eventually took over the Democratic Party.

Yeah, I don’t like Obama much, so I jumped at the opportunity to ridicule him.
