Sarah Palin Criticizes Obama over Israel Relations, Calls it 'Junior High Diplomacy'
All Media New York ^ | February 6, 2014 | Alex Mangini

Posted on 02/06/2014 2:35:35 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

Former Alaska Governor and GOP vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin lashed out at President Barack Obama’s administration today for its handling of relations with Israel, taking to Facebook to air out her frustrations over what she called “junior high diplomacy.”

“What is this — junior high school diplomacy? What next — using Facebook to ‘unfriend’ Israel? Isn’t it about time for the Obama administration to remember who our friends are and to treat them like friends?” Palin wrote on her Facebook page. “Israel is once again feeling the brunt of the Obama administration’s enemy centric foreign policy.”

Secretary of State John Kerry, who has been a target of Palin's in the past, also came under fire from the former governor for putting Israel in “an untenable position” over the Iranian nuclear deal as well as recent comments he made in Germany.

“You see for Israel there’s an increasing de-legitimization campaign that has been building up,” Kerry said earlier this week. “People are very sensitive to it. There are talk of boycotts and other kinds of things.”

“The Israelis are quite appropriately upset about the treatment they’ve received from Kerry,” Palin responded.

This isn't Bad Diplomacy, this is outright Antisemitism.

Amen. Especially when you connect all of the boycott dots...that lead right back to John F'n Kerry and this admin.

This is a very dangerous “game” they’re playing, and I don’t think Israel...not surprisingly....is amused.

They are un-freakin’-believable!!

Sarah - An old biblical name of honor.

Obama - an old Arabic word for “shit”.

Kerry - a French word for “traitor”.

See: I can speak three languages, accurately.

Then, might you name the ways that Israel is undeserving of your support.

God blesses Israel and all who stand with her.

Amen to that my friend!

And I will bless them that bless you, and curse him that curses you: and in you shall all families of the earth be blessed.--Genesis 12:31
America at it's heart knows that Israel is important to the future of the world and supports it 100%

The "squeaky wheels" are getting a lot of attention now, but will reap the whilrwing (see bolded area) in the end.

Again, to quote my previous post "Can't end well for them..." Hmmmmmm, quite the understatement!

I still have my “I’m Voting for Sarah” stickers on all of my survey vehicles, along with the “Nobama” stickers.

Get lots of thumbs up all the time.

The ^ part of the star is the symbol of man. the v part of the star is the symbol of woman. When they are together they are God’s plan for the Jewish People. The Commies do not recognize a God’s plan. That takes them out of the equation for making it their plan, human engineering speaking.

WHY isn’t this woman our President?

LMSM.



Being on the Republican presidential ticket with a man that didn't want the job probably didn't help much either.

Good to see Sarah’s getting into this.

I’ve been noticing the criticism of Kerry from Israel’s supporters in recent weeks but lets face it he is Obama’s water boy.

And its Obama who’s ultimately trying to squeeze Israel to give up a security buffer against terrorism, expel thousands of Jews from their homes and quite possible turn the US military into the protectors of the Palestinian terrorists who will inevitably attack Israel after the deal is cut.

If I named my fishing camp “Israel”, would it be entitled to the divine prerogatives you claim? Israel is the people who belong to God. In other words, the Church.

See Galatians 3:7-29. Read your bibles, people. The blessing is on the younger son — always.

Israel is also a Nation, God gave it to His people.

God gave them the land (actually much more than they occupy at this time) in a covenant He made with them.

He will keep His covenant.

Amos 9:14,15: "Also I will restore the captivity of My people Israel, And they will rebuild the ruined cities and live in them; They will also plant vineyards and drink their wine, And make gardens and eat their fruit. 15"I will also plant them on their land, And they will not again be rooted out from their land Which I have given them," Says the LORD your God.

He did keep his covenant.

Luke 20:9-19
He began to tell the people this parable: “A man planted a vineyard, and leased it to tenants, and went to another country for a long time. When the season came, he sent a slave to the tenants in order that they might give him his share of the produce of the vineyard; but the tenants beat him and sent him away empty-handed. Next he sent another slave; that one also they beat and insulted and sent away empty-handed. And he sent still a third; this one also they wounded and threw out. Then the owner of the vineyard said, ‘What shall I do? I will send my beloved son; perhaps they will respect him.’ But when the tenants saw him, they discussed it among themselves and said, ‘This is the heir; let us kill him so that the inheritance may be ours.’ So they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What then will the owner of the vineyard do to them? He will come and destroy those tenants and give the vineyard to others.” When they heard this, they said, “Heaven forbid!” But he looked at them and said, “What then does this text mean:

‘The stone that the builders rejected
has become the cornerstone’?

Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces; and it will crush anyone on whom it falls.”
