Emanuel Says Obama Insists On Implementing Two State Solution, No Ifs, Ands, or Buts

Israel won’t stand for being dissed and isoloated
like this. They’ll build their own defense industry,
weapons, fighter aircraft in time, if 0 continues
to mess with them so blatantly and despicably. He’s
gonna undo defense contracts that Pres. Bush approved,
the sob.

Frighteningly & Obviously they don’t know or don’t care :(

They will, oh....they will...

"In other words, US sympathy for Israel's position vis a vis Iran depends on Israel's willingness to live up to its commitment to get out of the West Bank and permit the establishment of a Palestinian state there, in Gaza, and East Jerusalem."

In other words, "sympathy" for Israel's "position" (that is, its mulish insistence on its right to exist) v. Iran (a large, resource-rich nation whose messianic nutjob-in-chief has repeatedly threatened Armageddon and derided Israel's legitimacy) is now a pawn.

That's worse than being thrown under the bus. Fortunately I think Netanyahu is smart enough to say to hell with Obama and to hell with America. I wouldn't blame him a bit. We are a perilous ally, and a more perilous benefactor. One becomes dependent on us at great risk-- speaking of Iran, just ask the Shah. Bibi would do his country a great favor to ratchet that back as quickly as possible. And move on Iran before it's too late.

It is beyond reprehensible. Shame on Emanuel, revealed as just another self-hater now. And shame on Hillary Clinton for not standing up and saying, "I speak for foreign policy, thank you very much. Rahm is just the office manager."

Ditto! Beyond shameful and evil.

Who the hell do they think that they are by telling Israel what to do? What are they going to do when Israel does what they want anyway?

He has dainty little hands doesn’t he?

Yes but he is good at ballet

[Brad’s Gramma]

Unfortunately, we American’s will suffer because of this, too...NOT to the degree they will, though.

If Obama does not cease and desist, no force in the realms of heaven and earth will prevent him from beng subjected to devine wrath. Its in the bag. Obama and Emmanual are as good as gone.Just a matter of time.The only question is how many of us they will take with them.

[paul51]

I recall during the campaign, the constant line from the doofus biden was that Israel had no better friend than zero. Right,

[Semper Mark]

...”Israel had no better friend than zero.”

You know, the sad thing is that among our politicians today, that is probably an accurate statement. Israel has no BETTER friend than zero.

[When do we get liberated?]

Obama’s nuanced diplomacy only fools the college kids and intelligensia of America. The Israelis will tell him where to put his Hamas-favored peace treaty. Then he can fail and blame the Israelis.

Israel stands ready to bomb Iran’s nuclear sites

I’d hate to be in Obama’s shoes if he starts messing with God’s chosen people, and I would hate to be in our shoes (as a nation) if/when he does it!

[STARWISE]

I know .... God won’t be mocked.

[BruceysMom]

I wholeheartedly agree with you.

Time for Israel to activate another one of their young female operatives in the states and bring Obama down like they did with Monica and Clinton...snark

No one should really be surprised with this. It was all apparent and obvious during the campaign and for any one who cares about Israel and Israeli security(and these days Israeli security and US security tend to overlap) the evidence was overwhleming as to wher Obama’s sympathies lie and what kind of President he’d be. It was all there.

Given that only 22% of jews voted for McCain I have to conclude that nowadays there is a large segment of jews that just doesn’t care all that much about Israel.

I think the longer we get from the Holocaust and the days of the 67 and 73 wars when Israel’s very existence was at stake and you have a younger genration who have always known Israel and take it for granted that it’s not the issue it is for older jews who may remember a world without Israel or news coverage of the 67 and 73 wars when its fate hung in the balance.

I don’t know if the Jewish vote was broken down by age but I’d bet that if you just took say Jews over 50, McCain did much better than the overall 22% he got, and among Jews over 60 I’d say he did more than much better.

But it’s like in Genesis when there arose a new Pharoah who did not know Joseph...there has arisen a new Jewish population that just doesn’t know or doesn’t care or both.

Sad but True as Metallica might say.

They're poking fingers at the LORD’s chest....

Would he also support a 2 state solution in the US...liberal and conservative?
