Jeffrey Goldberg, an indefatigable defender of the president when it comes to Israel, has done the president no favors by revealing President Obama’s deep-seated arrogance and lack of respect for our democratic ally Israel. Goldberg writes:
In the weeks after the UN vote [on Palestinian observer status], Obama said privately and repeatedly, “Israel doesn’t know what its own best interests are.” With each new settlement announcement, in Obama’s view, Netanyahu is moving his country down a path toward near-total isolation. . . . On matters related to the Palestinians, the president seems to view the prime minister as a political coward, an essentially unchallenged leader who nevertheless is unwilling to lead or spend political capital to advance the cause of compromise.

He envisions a more hostile stance in the future and the prospects for an imposed peace deal: “When such an issue arises again, Israel may find itself even lonelier. It wouldn’t surprise me if the U.S. failed to whip votes the next time, or if the U.S. actually abstained. I wouldn’t be particularly surprised, either, if Obama eventually offered a public vision of what a state of Palestine should look like, and affirmed that it should have its capital in East Jerusalem.”

Not only that, Tel Aviv is a gay friendly city like San Francisco. I am now convinced that we living in that time when God “sends them a strong delusion”. No other explanation for everything being upside down.

It really is weird, it used to be back in the 1880’s-1890’s and even before that there were gay people around but they didn’t push their deviant lifestyle as the “normal” and if left alone they would leave you alone. In fact gay people were kind of pitied and terms such a “spinster sisters” or “lifelong bachelor” were used to describe them and they even had “boston marriages” as term to describe two people of the same sex in a “relationship” together. They did what they wanted behind closed doors and no one really cared about as long as they stayed away from the children and didn’t push their perversions onto others.
In fact i think it was the first of the “progressive movement” that actually started active political persecution of the gay people in the early 1900’s... And they Gays have been used as their tool s ever since for some reason.
It really is weird looking at the history of it all and how it has “progressed”...
Well, “what goes around comes around as they say”.
He doesn’t respect Isreal and millions of American’s, Jewish or otherwise, have no respect for him.
He didn’t loose our respect over Isreal, he lost it for hundreds of reasons.
