President Obama has responded to today's terrorist attack on a synagogue in Jerusalem in which four Israeli Jews attending morning prayers condemning the attack, and stating that "the majority of Palestinians" want peace.
In a statement delivered to the White House press pool, President Obama responded to the attack by declaring that "too many Palestinians have died," as well as Israelis, in the struggle between the state of Israel and the terrorist group Hamas and its affiliates, including the internationally active Muslim Brotherhood. "At this difficult time," the President told reports, "I think it's important for both Palestinians and Israelis to try to work together to lower tensions and reject violence."
"We have to remind ourselves that the majority of Palestinians and Israelis overwhelmingly want peace," the statement concludes, before the President begins remarks on the Ebola crisis in West Africa. The President did not take questions.
The President's remarks follow Secretary of State John Kerry's response to the terrorist attack, in which he called "on Palestinian leadership at every single level to condemn this in the most powerful terms.” Palestinian Authority head Mahmoud Abbas, on his end, nominally condemned the attack while "stressing the need to end the causes of such attacks like tensions over what Jews call the Temple Mount and Palestinians call al-Aqsa Mosque." Such a dismissal of the increasingly out-of-control terrorist activity by Palestinian extremists received the typical benefit of the doubt from mainstream media.

“I think it’s important for both Palestinians and Israelis to try to work together to lower tensions and reject violence.”
The Genius speaks. I guess he was not briefed that Fakestinians broke into a Synogague and killed Jews. Its hard to work with somebody when you are dead.
Obama comments on WW2:
“Too many Nazi’s have died during thw war. Some Jews have also died.”

Just another lie, assuming the pResident doesn't actually believe it.
It’s getting to be like Groundhog Day in Hell.
Has anyone correlated the published White House schedule for Obama and the Muslim prayer times? Does he ever have appointments during those times?
I never thought of it that way, you are entirely correct.
“Thanks” to EXEMPT Issa and corrupt EXEMPT Cummings,
EXEMPT Lerner kept the backdated docs from the public,
exposed therein where the US taxpayers funneled money
for rockets, tunnels and death of Israelis and Americans
to Hamas, through the Royal Obama family.
CNN reported it as “Two Palestinians killed blah blah ...”
I just heard that and thought the same thing. I bet if a Mosque got bombed he would not be saying anything about the number of Jews that were being killed.
Perhaps more D.C. douchebags should meet such a fate.
You might be on to something but I expect we’ll find he is occasionally on the golf course at the times when he would otherwise be sticking his rear end in the air towards Mecca.
