Obama is setting up Israel to take the fall
Washington Post ^ | March 23, 2014 | Jennifer Rubin

Posted on 03/25/2014 5:45:44 AM PDT by SJackson

In advance of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s recent visit to the United States, President Obama gave an interview in which he viciously attacked Israel, suggesting that Israel was the cause of the peace process failure, that the United States could no longer protect Israel if the peace process failed and that Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas was a man of peace.

This past week, Abbas came to visit Obama at the White House. In advance of his trip, Obama made no statements expressing displeasure with the Palestinian Authority’s intransigence and its continued demonization of Israel. Just before the meeting Obama told the assembled press corps:

I have to commend President Abbas. He has been somebody who has consistently renounced violence, has consistently sought a diplomatic and peaceful solution that allows for two states, side by side, in peace and security; a state that allows for the dignity and sovereignty of the Palestinian people and a state that allows for Israelis to feel secure and at peace with their neighbors. . . . I also want to point out that the Palestinian Authority has continued to try to build strong institutions in preparation for a day in which the Palestinians have their own state, and I will continue to emphasize the importance of rule of law, transparency, and effective reform so that not only do the Palestinians ultimately have a state on paper, but, more importantly, they have one that actually delivers on behalf of their people.

“I will continue to emphasize the importance of rule of law, transparency, and effective reform”

Maybe the worm should practice what he preaches.

There is no so-called “palestine”, but for the Roman appellation. Nor are there any so-called “palestinians” but for various conglomerations of predominantly islamist arabs which Israel, for whatever God-forsaken reason, has decided it must put-up with.

Obama is not worried about any backlash from Israel.

He knows that American Jews have his back.

Matthew 24:9-11

“Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me. At that time many will turn away from the faith (today’s liberal Jews) and will betray and hate each other, and many false prophets (Mohammed) will appear and deceive many people.

(From the title):"Obama is setting up Israel to take the fall "

When Isreal, or best ally , stands alone
and as we berate them into submission of unacceptable consequences ,
Then, in truth ,... WE STAND ALONE !!

Israel is not going to fall. The God of Abraham, Issac and Jacob will protect her. The Bible makes is CLEAR that Israel will be dispersed and brought back twice. NOT three times. Thus, Israel will not fall. They are back in the land and there they will stay until the time the Lord comes back at the 2d coming and set up His kingdom on earth.

If I am Netanyahu, I ask Obama what keeps me from responding to the next rocket attack by annexing all of Gaza, expelling the Palestinians and letting Al Sisi in Egypt know that e has company coming.

Israel has endured enough from those sub-humans. Let Egypt deal with them.

Caroline Glick ha just published an important book,”The Israeli Solution, A One-State Plan For Peace In The Middle East”. She explains the fallacy or problems of the two-state
position of the Clinton,Bush, and Obama Administrations. It is a very good study of the present political problems in Israel.

When I read the comments on the article, at the Washington Post site, with their all-too-familiar anti-Jewish tropes, I thought I had been transported back to the Middle Ages.
