ADL’s Abraham Foxman: Obama didn’t throw Israel under the bus
The Plum Line (Washington Post) ^ | 5/20/11 | Greg Sargent

Posted on 05/21/2011 1:26:20 PM PDT by Winged Hussar

I just got off the phone with Abraham Foxman, the Holocaust survivor who heads the Anti-Defamation League. He does not agree with the claim by some Republican 2012 presidential candidates and conservative commentators that Obama threw Israel under the bus in his Arab Spring speech yesterday.

...“I don’t see this as the president throwing Israel under the bus,” he told me. “He’s saying with `swaps.’ It’s not 1967 borders in the abstract. It’s not an edict. It’s a recommendation of a structure for negotiations.”

This one is the one that broke the camel’s back.

Dream on. These people will be singing Zero's praises while his Brownshirts load them on to cattle cars to reeducation camps.

We have sailed past disgusting and are now very deep into creepy spooky.

Don't analyze American liberal Jews' political beliefs. Just accept that they are self destructive and will not change.

To answer Goldberg, how might American feel about Netanyahu's “disrespect” of Obama? Some of us would like to swap Obama for Netanyahu and get a President that loves and defends his country. The only problem with that swap is that Israel doesn't deserve such a rotten deal.

Rush was saying that Bibi was now the front runner for the Republican nomination. Hells bells, he's as eligible as Zero.

Soros was a Holocaust survivor too—

Soros was not a survivor, he was a d@mned Judas Goat.

The “Obama tingle” Foxman’s getting is just the wetting of himself caused by Dear Leader's name. O-ba-ma, O-ba-ma, O-ba-ma. His man's name is his mantra.

Too bad. He said what he said and it’s going to be an issue.

In fact, I did a little research, and the town of Dearborn does NOT have a synagogue. The closest is a “World Deliverance Temple” in Dearborn Heights. Somehow, I doubt that it would be Orthodox or Hasidic...
