Obama: Israeli raid on aid flotilla was 'tragic,' loss of life 'unnecessary'

This guy would have made a better President.

This retard is ALWAYS wrong. It was neither tragic nor unnecessary.

Our allies, Colombia and Israel, are among the fine nations getting the short stick.

I wonder what to make of that while other nations are just being cowardly in not supporting Israel, I think the Messiah really means it.

“Obama says he believes Israel should agree to such an investigation because the incident isn’t good for their long-term security.”

It seems to me that any country that has already prejudged the legitimacy of this operation, in particular, those referring to it as a “raid” or an “attack”, should be excluded from that investigation for the sake of objectivity. What countries does that leave?

[FrdmLvr]

Hey, it’s WAR, dude! Get over it. They were the agressor.

[mojito]

This Obama is more of a foreign policy moron than Jimmy Carter. I didn't think it was possible to top Carter, but this mental midget has accomplished the seemingly impossible.

The loss of life WAS unnecessary if the ship hadn't tried to run a blockade, no one would have been hurt.

[MinuteGal]

Someone should tell that fool of a president that Michael Moore produced the film of the Israelis boarding the ship.....then he would be sure to watch it (which obviously he hasn't....or at least, his mind rejected it).

The Rachel Corrie is a flatboat!

I think Obama’s 3% approval rating in Israel is about to go down.

[dforest]

Perhaps it might have been more honest if Barry would have chastized his buddies Ayers and Dohrn, Jodie Evans too for participating in this farce, but then Obama was probably quite aware of what they were up to.

Now he plans to blackmail Israel.

[DoughtyOne]

I agree.

[richardtavor]

obama is bad for Israel’s long term security.

[DoughtyOne]

Thank you.

[DoughtyOne]

The Left would never buy it. He’s overqualified.

Besides, it’s all Bush/Cheney’s fault.

[ohiogrammy]

Sorry, but I am infuriated that the US Jewish pop votes for this guy and basically throws their homeland under the bus..

[ChiMark]

Was not tragic. Israel did the right thing.

Zer0 is a tragedy.

[Lockbar]

[Revelation 911]

maybe he should send his condolences to Ayers, he organized it

[BenLurkin]

Hussein will never admit that Israel’s enemies in this instance are America’s enemies.

[DoughtyOne]

Agreed.
