U.S. to abandon Israel
ISRAPUNDIT ^ | Dec 31/08 | Ted Belman

Posted on 12/31/2008 7:06:25 PM PST by tedbel

U.S. Intelligence Official about Israel: "This is just the beginning".

U.S. Intelligence official "breaks silence" on Israel situation"

Homeland Security

31 December 2008: Northeast Intelligence Network director Doug Hagmann interviewed a highly-placed U.S. intelligence official late yesterday who not only confirmed rumors about escalated and more intensive Israeli military operations against the Muslim terrorists in Gaza, [but] warned of the increasing probability of abandonment of Israel by the U.S. and other Western countries based on what he termed "malicious intelligence."

"Remember that term," advised this well-placed intelligence official, "you'll be hearing it again."

"This is just the beginning," stated this intelligence official, who wished to remain anonymous. This official stated that the possibility for a much more protracted ground war is more likely today than at any other time in the past, adding that Israel is exercising her right to protect herself from her enemies in Gaza. But there is a catch, noted this official, and a big one at that: Israel could be about to lose the support of the United States.

    "I have every reason to believe, based on what I've seen at my level of [security] clearance especially over the last several years, that Israel will soon be completely on their own… or worse."

When asked what could be worse than losing the support of the United States, he stated:

    "when our administration provides more support to Arab countries [with] financial and military aid, undercutting Israel's defense efforts all while pushing Israel to succumb to the pressure of unreasonable demands designed to end with their political annihilation as a nation."

I couldn’t have stated it any better....if the U.S. does abandon Israel...it will be the final nail in OUR coffin....that would be the final insult to God...we are already on a very slippery slope and that would be the last straw...I pray it doesn’t happen, but I think our gov. actions the past few years have given a pretty good idea where this is heading.

“U.S. to abandon Israel”

Maybe as you grow older, more educated, and wiser you will see the error of your thoughts and statements on this matter.

“I personally believe that it is time for the USA and UN to support Israel in the strongest way. “

Then sir, you either do not know history, or current events. The UN wants, and has wanted Isreal gone for the last 40+ years.

You are probably right. As I grow older my indifference towards Israel will probably turn into animosity.

Look,
American Jews again overwhelmingly voted Democrat.
They voted what 80 percent for obamma lamma ding dong?
For the Olmert years the Israelis refused to defend Israel.
If Israel ceases to exist they have only themselves to blame.
For over 50 years the U.S. has been Israels biggest backer and still Israel spies on us to this day?
I will not lose sleep if this passes.

What I am saying is that it is time for the UN to "poop or get off the pot!" It is time to get rid of that vile, corrupt organization once and for all. The UN has been less than useless for the past 40 years. It is time for the UN to strongly support Israel or get out of town. You would think that after 40+ years of failed policies the USA would start to get smart and stop giving $ billions or $ trillions in handouts to greedy ungrateful vermin.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

should be rather soon. I’ll let you know if I’m still here, although I suspect it will make the headlines!

IMHO, abandonment of Israel is not a strategic possibility because she could easily resort to her nuclear capability to even the playing field with the islamist crazies.

“if the United States reverses course on its support for Israel, including its actions against Hamas in Gaza.”

I have little doubt that an Obama would do such a thing. However if he does he’ll curse the day his mother met his father. Hell curse the day he developed political ambitions outside of Chicago. He’ll curse the rising of every sun, and he will curse the setting of each sun. If he stabs Israel he stabs me.

Personally, If I was jewish I might be concerned about Obama’s presidency not because of some concocted muslim association he had as a child, which is simply too silly to contemplate, but because he’s black. I get the impression that blacks and jews are not the greatest of friends. However Obama is a Christian now, in his grown-up years, and has stated that he supports Israel. I haven’t seen any evidence that contradicts his statement. Politically, practically, and morally, that is and should be his policy.

And when the Democrat ruled Unted States causes the final destructioin of Israel and resulting massacre of all the Israelis who can’t get out because of the American/European blockade, the Jewish vote in the US will continue to go to the Democrats by 85% or more.

Disagree strongly.

He attended a church for 20 years which had a mission statement that was not at all Christian, in my view. It followed a religion based on Africa and skin color, with some vague Christian trappings. It also had ties to the Nation of Islam. I saw his "church" as a political construct having virtually nothing to do with spiritual matters. And when things got hot and Obama stopped attending, he did not seek out another church, he just stopped attending services.

Also, based on various statements he has made in interviews ("there are many paths to God") I have to declare him to be the first non-Christian president we've ever had.

That is correct. NEIN produces sensational claims to generate subscriptions and ad revenue. I believe NEIN has even been banned by FR in the past as a non link to source. They may get something right now and then, but you know the story about the blind squirrel.

Still the article is something to think about.0bama’s “change” could included weakened support for Israel. I am not so sure that given America's financial IOUs to the rag head world that we won't be blackmailed into throwing Israel under the bus. Foreign debt weakens our sovereignty and ability to act unilaterally.

As a Jew myself, I ask that you please not lump all Jews into the Liberal moron category. There are many conservative Republican Jews in America and right here on FR. God will judge and deal with Liberal Jews that turned their backs on Israel and voted for the Muslim Messiah. They will not be judged favorably.
