Panetta is just giving tacit approval for Iran to move forward with a nuke test.

Neon Leon Panetta just gave any conscious Jew a good reason to vote for the Republican presidential candidate. Israel is just an inconvenience to these idiots but in the end Hashem decides all on matters like this

Jennifer Rubin, the Post’s token rightie.

Rodney King rhetoric of “why can’t we all get along” needs to be addressed at least as much to Turkey as to Israel. Turkey knows darn well that it’s pricking Israel on purpose, and it’s no longer the secular Turkey of Ataturk’s day.

Would the vast majority of American Jews be insulted if a modern Democrat politician said the Holocaust was a global cooling event? I don't think so.

While I believe literate Jews should be to the Democrat Party as oil is to water, I don't see it happening. It may be utterly impossiblle for a Democrat to insult a Jew.

“Now is the time for Israel to take bold action and to move towards a negotiated two-state solution.”

This seems like a good time to repeat my oft repeated assertion that there will never be an independent arab west bank. It will never happen. There is no practical basis for an independent state. There is no economy separate from Jordan and Israel. They produce nothing. There is no source of employment, no markets, no manufacture. They exist as a shakedown.

They make war. They get paid to not make war. They make war, and again get paid to not make war. They can't stop making war because their only source of wealth is the payoff they get to not do it, which guarantees that they must continue to do it.

they know they can’t prod Abu Mazen [Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas] to do a thing. He is intransigent and belligerent...

No kidding. Do you think he is there to worry about storm drains and water treatment? Do you think his ambition is to be the insignificant mayor of an insignificant territory the size of a small county?

. With no leverage to push the Palestinians

No leverage? They exist on shakedown money paid from the UN and US and Israel. There is nothing else. They are an artificial creation sustained by a financial umbilical cord that can be cut at any time. Just do it.

The "two state" solution has been in place for sixty years now; its called Israel and Jordan. The world doesn't need a hole-in-the-wall-gang with a flag and Israel needs to stop pretending to take them seriously. Seal the borders. Stop pretending they are a country.

Ping!!!

It's a bit of a pleasant surprise that the WaPo has Jennifer Rubin doing columns defending Israel against continuous badmouthing from the Obama Administration.

As Ms. Rubin states, it's probably better politically for the Democrats (including some leftist Jews) to shut up about the Israel-Islamist conflict rather than try to convince the naive and gullible that the Administration is really concerned about Israel's security in the face of ever-increasing threats to her existence.

Co-ordinated attack? Panetta, Hillary and US Ambassador to Belgium, Mr. Gutman, all unload on Israel within hours of each other.

American Jews voted 80% for Obama in 2008.

They have been a Hard Left USA voting bloc for at least a century.

They will not break with the Socialist and Pacifist goals of the Democratic Party, even if the security of Israel is threatened.

Those three enduring pillars cannot change, because with this administration they have been made of smoke. That smoke will not become marble, steel, or even balsa wood any time soon.
