On Monday, three Jewish boys were found dead, murdered by the terrorist group Hamas: Eyal Yifrach, 19; Gilad Shaar, 16; and Naftali Frenkel, 16. Frenkel was an American citizen. The three were kidnapped while hitchhiking some three weeks ago. In the interim, President Barack Obama said nothing about them publicly. His wife issued no hashtags. His State Department maintained that $400 million in American taxpayer cash would continue to the Palestinian unity government, which includes Hamas.
Presumably Frenkel did not look enough like Barack Obama’s imaginary son for him to give a damn. Or perhaps Frenkel hadn’t deserted his duty in the American military, and therefore his parents didn’t deserve a White House press conference. Maybe Michelle Obama was too busy worrying about children’s fat thighs to spend a moment tweeting out a selfie to raise awareness.
Or maybe, just maybe, the Obama administration didn’t care about Frenkel because he was a Jew.
Jewish blood is cheap to this administration. That seems to be true in every administration, given the American government’s stated predilection for forcing Israel into concessions to an implacable and Jew-hating enemy. But it’s particularly true for an administration that has now cut a deal with Iran that legitimizes its government, weakens sanctions, and forestalls Israeli action against its nuclear program. It’s especially true for an administration that forced the Israeli government to apologize to the Turkish government for stopping a terrorist flotilla aimed at supplying Hamas. And it’s undoubtedly true for an administration that has undercut Israeli security at every turn, deposing Hosni Mubarak in Egypt, fostering chaos in Syria and by extension destabilizing Jordan and Lebanon, and leaking Israeli national security information no less than four times.
Now the corpse of a 16-year-old Jewish American is found in Hebron.
The Obama administration’s first response: to call on the Israeli government for restraint. State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said on June 2, “Based on what we know now, we intend to work with this government.” Now, just a month later, that government has murdered an American kid. And now she says that the Obama administration hopes “that the Israelis and the Palestinians continue to work with one another on that, and we certainly would continue to urge that … in spite of, obviously, the tragedy and the enormous pain on the ground.”
To which the proper Israeli response should be: go perform anatomically impossible acts upon yourself.
The Obama administration had the opportunity to stand clearly against Jew-hating evil. Not only did it fail to do so but it funded that evil, encouraged that evil, militated against fighting that evil. But that’s nothing new. Jew hatred is as old as the Jewish people. It’s just found a new home in the White House.
It seems to me that Israel has the capacity to make independent decisions regarding "concessions" and "forestalling."
This doesn't let the Obama (or the Bush) administration off the hook, but I think the country whose survival is most immediately threatened can and should consider reality and act in its own interest.
Yes....”Pajama Boy” Barack Hussein Obama is a certified Jew/Israeli hater!!! Amazing how many American Jews support this nutcase, Obama!!! I guess in the eyes of most American Jews....Adolf Hitler was not such a bad guy!!!
When the choice is 5 Billion US Dollars or self preservation, Israel wil make the reasonable and prudent choice.
When the choice is 5 Billion US dollars and bad press the Israelis will make the same determination.
The point is the US backing used to mean something. That is no longer true.
Is Iran better since we abandoned the Shah?
Is Egypt better since we abandoned Mubarak?
Is Libya better since we abandoned Qaddafi?
Nobody believes the word of the US and especially Obama.
a) Weakens America/AmericansI have yet to have anyone raise a single substantive counter example in several years of posting this.
b) Distances America's allies
c) Strengthens America's enemies
d) Serves Islam
e) Harms Israel
Or some combination of the above.
“Amazing how many American Jews support this nutcase, Obama!!!”
I noticed the same thing..I ALSO wondered if the NY Jews were working for HITLER like George Soros did.
We all know why Obama hates the JEWS and that is because he is Muslim..one day this bunch will pay for all they have done.and I am talking about Obama and his freaks paying..
Obama is Allahs Bitch boy. All us infidels don’t matter. Islam is the only thing that Obama cares about.
Screw Obama.
IMHO.......when the Muslim days of Obama come here to the USA, American Jews will be walking the plank to oblivion!!! Many Jews in Germany thought Hitler would not be so bad....but Hitler concealed his real hate for the Jews, until the time was right for his planned slaughter of same!!! Ya know, most Jews are pretty darn hep & smart...but not here in America!!!
Now...on the other side of the coin...Israeli Jews get it...real quick!!! I know...I have spend time with the Israeli Defense and Air Force folks in Israel...and these good, patroitic folks have Obama’s number down a a “tee”!!! Shame on every American Jew that supports Obama, the Jew Hater!!!

Yes I do agree with all you have said here.
The Obama administration had the opportunity to stand clearly against Jew-hating evil. Not only did it fail to do so but it funded that evil, encouraged that evil, militated against fighting that evil.
Can someone please explain to me how there can still be Jews out there who actually support this man?
