NY Times Just Can’t Figure Out Obama’s Position on Israel
Boycott The New York Times ^ | May 18, 2009 | Don Feder

Posted on 05/18/2009 12:35:49 PM PDT by AIM Freeper

In a front-page story in today’s paper, The New York Times just can’t seem figure out what President Obama will do about Israel — like you’d need a crystal ball to figure it out.

In speculating on today’s meeting between Obama and Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu, The Times refers to the latter as “Israel’s hawkish prime minister.” Why, because he’s unwilling to put Israel’s security in the hands of its sworn enemies — Hamas and Fatah? The Times refuses to call Hamas a terrorist group, but Netanyahu is “hawkish.”

Not coincidentally, everyone quoted in the article thinks Obama will be realistic in his approach to the conflict. Not one Israeli or American who’s skeptical of the president was quoted.

I’m sure New York Liberal Jews will be very interested to hear all about Zero screwing over Israel. That noise you will hear will be Liberal Jews closing their wallets and NO donations to the RAT party.

Maybe they’re just waiting to see what DU/Kos/Huffpo are saying so they can plagiarize it.

How hard is it to figure out? Zero is for the Muslims.

The liberal Jews figure - once again - that appeasing those who want them dead will fix the problem.

His position is the same as I’m A Nutjob’s position on Israel - wiped off the map.

It is going to be very interesting to see what happens.
Now he is saying wait til the end of the year. That is along time with the centrifuges churning away. Plus Pakistan is falling apart and they could just park their nucs with Iran.

Let the Israelis elect me, and I show those @$$#ole$ at the Times what "hawkish" is.

As far as I can see as of now, nothing of any substance happened at today’s meeting. Well, I’m sure that Netanyahu will put in a couple of other appearances in Washington before he goes home so that his trip won’t be a total waste.

His policy is simple, Zero supports Israel, except when he's against it, or talking to a Muslim group.

I’ve never met a voting block more ambivalent about the safety of their homeland than that of the jew.
