RAMALLAH, West Bank (AP) — The Obama administration has told Palestinian leaders to expect little help with their statehood bid during the U.S. presidential campaign, the Palestinian foreign minister said Friday.

However, the Americans also held out the promise of vigorous U.S. mediation in the Mideast conflict if President Barack Obama is re-elected, Palestinian Foreign Minister Riad Malki said in an interview.

Palestinians are aware of the constraints of domestic U.S. politics and will act responsibly, Malki said, suggesting Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas would not take steps in the coming months that might damage his ties with Washington.

It would be advisable for the PA to stay below the radar

If you like the decline of America you've seen over the last four years, and you've enjoyed the natural disasters even more, you're going to love what's coming if Barack Obama is re-elected and doesn't have to worry about another election.

We ain't seen nothing yet.

We can send notes of thanks to the GOP establishment also. They will be just as complicit.

Reading between the lines, I would translate this as: Once we don't have to worry about those pesky voters anymore, we'll show you what we *really* think of (as the Reverend Wright would say) "them Jews".

The related news that Obama's superPACs aren't sharing any money with any Congressional Denocrats up for re-election points to the conclusion: In his second term, Obama will govern as a dictator. He will have the press on his side, and he will dare the Republicans to do anything about it.

Exactly. Obama’s got Israel’s back right up to the second he would get reelected.

You would expect Obama to pull this ruse. What is amazing is that so many (supposedly) intelligent Jews will fall for it.

One second after that, Israel will find a .38 Special slug in her back, compliments of Hussein. B-(
