....I depart and return to Israel with a sense of sorrow and dismay. For many, Israel remains a focal point of their lives enriching their collective sense of responsibility and Jewish identity. For these American Jews their frustration has only been reinforced by Obama's reelection only to be followed by him turning his back towards those very American Jews aligned with the White House, those Jews who wholeheartedly supported Obama's reelection yet now find themselves unable to defend his latest betrayal.
Two major supporters of Obama, former NY Mayor Ed Koch, a life long Democrat and Prof Alan Dershowitz have recently come out public and responded to Obama's intention to nominate former Nebraska Senator Chuck Hagel for Secretary of Defense.
Former Mayor of New York, Ed Koch, expressed deep disappointment with Obama's decision; to nominate former Nebraska Senator Chuck Hagel for Secretary of Defense; Frankly, I thought that there would come a time when he would renege on what he conveyed on his support of Israel, said Koch, adding, it comes a little earlier than I thought it would. Its very disappointing, I believe he will ultimately regret it, Koch said, and it undoubtedly will reduce support for him in the Jewish community, but I dont think he (the President) worries about that now that the election is over.

That means the following was a big fat lie.
” I am confident that President Obama will continue his unambiguous commitment to the Jewish state in his second term, building on his record of leadership by preventing Iran from developing a nuclear weapon.”
Amazingly, he isn’t even ashamed of his own perfidy. Koch now has zero credibility.
Koch? Koch can barely make it to the bathroom anymore. And Dershowitz? He’s just a moron. He actually believe that American Jews should be disarmed so that the next tyrannical government that decides they’re bad for business can herd them into the boxcars without a fight. No joke! Alan came out for big time “gun control” just a couple of days ago.
No, now he’s a senile old fool..
