Statement By Liz Cheney On President Obama’s Response To The Flotilla Incident
Keep America Safe ^ | June 4th, 2010 | Liz Cheney

Posted on 06/04/2010 8:52:28 PM PDT by Ooh-Ah

Today, Keep America Safe’s Liz Cheney released the following statement on President Obama’s response to the flotilla incident:

“Yesterday, President Obama said the Israeli action to stop the flotilla bound for the Gaza Strip was “tragic.” What is truly tragic is that President Obama is perpetuating Israel’s enemies’ version of events. The Israeli government has imposed a blockade around Gaza because Hamas remains committed to Israel’s destruction, refusing to recognize Israel’s right to exist and using territory under their control to launch attacks against Israeli civilians.

The Israeli blockade of Gaza, in order to prevent the re-arming of Hamas, is in full compliance with international law. Had the Turkish flotilla truly been interested in providing humanitarian aid to Gaza, they would have accepted the Israeli offer to off-load their supplies peacefully at the Israeli port of Haifa for transport into Gaza.

President Obama is contributing to the isolation of Israel, and sending a clear signal to the Turkish-Syrian-Iranian axis that their methods for ostracizing Israel will succeed, and will be met by no resistance from America. There is no middle ground here. Either the United States stands with the people of Israel in the war against radical Islamic terrorism or we are providing encouragement to Israel’s enemies—and our own. Keep America Safe calls on President Obama to reverse his present course and support the state of Israel immediately and unequivocally.”

Yes, Liz has a way with words, and making herself clear, just like her dad.”

She also does a very good job of standing up to Juan Williams.

No matter the topic—Juan comes back with statements that sound like a trained parrot.

No thinking—just speaking. He really seems to be stuck at about a 13 y/o level—and just cannot get unstuck.

I cannot see why anyone keeps signing a paycheck for that man. Another reason why PBS should not be supported with American tax dollars.

it should only be supported by those who wish to sponsor such drivel from such a simpleton.
