Obama would have probably felt safer at a muslim rally.

Well, I would, but it’s not in the excerpt above, and you have to be a subscriber to read the article at the site. No thanks.

A true grassroots March wouold show that the French citizenry really do blame Islam for this. The government involvement will overshadow that and be able to water down the message and obscure how serious the Feench citizenry are of stopping their country from being completely taken over by Islam.

I know. I have a list. Optics should be on it. It is entirely overused.
Besides, I hate hip words/phrases of the day.

good rant :)

[Organic Panic]

The left is already hijacking the event. The French are PISSED and want the muslim invasion stopped. But you won’t hear one peep from the media interviewing a Parisian.

[miss marmelstein]

I hope you’re right. The French citizens must do something. As we must, of course.

Of course, the whole purpose of this farce was to try to stop the momentum of UKIP, the Front National and PEGIDA.

The Israeli press hates Netanyahu so it really doesn't matter what he does, he will be vilified. He is an egomaniac like ALL politicians but for Israel to attack it's PM at an event like this one is shameful. There are times when protocol should be tossed out the window. The formula that the world is used to:

MDJ (More Dead Jews) is acceptable.
Victims of terror directed NOT at Jews or Israel is an outrage, right?

I respectfully disagree with that. But thanks for your reply.

Really? You think the media in Israel and outside of Israel respect Bibi? That is fascinating! I respect your views but would be interested in seeing a postive spin on Bibi...somewhere.

[Right_in_Virginia]

Really? You think the media in Israel and outside of Israel respect Bibi?

I wouldn't use the term "respect". I think Bibi himself has diminished that around the world.

But he gets a fair shake from many newspapers in Israel, some in Europe. Most in the US actually fawn over him.

I don't know why this should cause you such distress.

[Netz]

It causes distress because most of his points are correct and the planet ignores him...re: Iran & Terror.
