In major reversal, U.S. agrees to rebuke Israel in Security Council

Israel wasn’t betrayed here.

It has always been quite clear whose side Obama is on by the company he keeps.

“Will someone explain how the United States benefits from its relationship with Israel?”

Easy question to answer:

1. Israel is our outpost in the Mid East.
2. Their intelligence is regarding the Sand Savages is vastly better than ours.
3. They are our military surrogate in the Mid East.
4. The Israeli military often improves the weapon systems we send to them; then, we incorporate said improvements.
5. Israel provides America with a necessary stick when dealing with Arabs, such as “Want us to stop putting the brakes on the Israelis?”

Also, never to be forgotten is the fact that most of the world’s governments hire an Israeli company to provide computer security. Think about this one.

What don’t they know?

"The Jew-hating administration dances with glee with their Jew-hating friends."

And stupid American Jews will continue to vote for Obama.

Not to mention they took out Saddam Hussein’s nuclear plant, and then they sat on their hands while the got bombarded by scuds during gulf war 1 so it wouldn’t upset the arab alliance that Bush put together.

Given Obama’s Muslim upbringing, this is not surprising.

This thread’s article is the major headline on Drudge. Politico (barely) but reported this in a blog. This is legitimate news.Why was this moved from news yesterday? Please see posts 20 and 21 in this thread. Politico reported it but they sure aren’t going to use the Pajamas media true title to what is going on.

Also: The Obama holiday recess appointments caused many investigations regarding himself and issues related to himself; to be stopped, including the new black panthers case.This news was moved to blog here as well. Sadly sometimes blogs ARE the news... See post 39 and this thread below

Thank you very much for your time in discussing and concluding what blogs are blogs and what blogs are indeed sadly...the news.

Great info....bookmarking!

They are not at the mercy of anyone now. They have the military might and prowess to defend themselves. Up to now, they have graciously acquiesced to the will of the U.S. government. One wonders how much longer Israel will continue to do so.

Personally, I am amazed by Israel’s patience and restraint. As the Lord is patient with us not wanting anyone to perish, so is Israel with her sworn enemies.

[Nachum]

Yes. Israel has the ability to defend itself. The hesitation is that there is a physical, material, and emotional cost to any conflict.

Israel will hold itself unless there is no other option.

I don’t know but there was also a copy of this article posted yesterday in breaking news and it’s still there:

Thanks. I obviously did not see it.

The Obama holiday recess appointments and their dangers can’t be swept away like nothing happened. He is sneaky as the devil as all eyes were on other news or Egypt. But I blame the MSM for letting him slide in all of his corrupt deeds without being called to the carpet. It is confusing. It is too hard to keep up with all of it. I am hoping all of the senators and congress that were appalled at Obama’s recess appointments have their eye on the ball. I also wonder what happens when a seated POTUS ignores Issa’s witness testimony and document requests.

It is all dire and serious and beyond campaign bull crap and politics. I fear the GOP are afraid of even taking articles of impeachment action in the judiciary for fear of being attacked like the Clinton times. This is not about a red dress so why is everybody sitting on their hands? The race card cannot possibly work in ceasing an investigation; yet a simple lousy interview of Obama by BOReilly has been called bigoted.

I am sorry I am just very upset and tired of reading about Obama’s corruption daily. I feel helpless. I am on unemployment. Maybe when enough people lose their jobs we can *all* peacefully protest in DC? God Bless you. I am sorry for the winded rant.
