Obama Does Phony About-Face On Netanyahu To Limit Damage To Democrats

by JASmius



How phony and cynical is this about-face?  Even the New York Times isn't buying it:

Barack Obama is making overtures to repair his long-strained relationship with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, but the efforts have more to do with currying favor with pro-Israel members of Congress and American Jews than with the Jewish State, according to the New York Times.

"The White House is engaged in an aggressive effort to assuage the concerns of American Jewish groups and pro-Israel members of Congress over the nuclear agreement with Iran, and to limit the potential political fallout for Democrats of what has become a bitter rift in the American and Israeli relationship," according to the Times.

Put another way, it's okay to be anti-Israel and anti-Semitic and cheer on the mullahs to complete Hitler's "final solution to the Jewish problem," but don't be so gosh darn publicly conspicuous about it.  At least until you've imported enough Muslims to render the Jewish vote no longer relevant.

You know how else you can tell that O doesn't mean a word of these "overtures" about being "strongly devoted to Israel"?  The simplest and most straightforward way to atone for his "open hostility" would be to visit Israel and have a maximally public hatchet-burying summit with Prime Minister Netanyahu himself, wouldn't it?  Maybe even bow to Bibi for the cameras.  But he has not done, and has no plans to do, any such thing.  The best he would grudgingly do was dispatch Slow Joe Biden to an Israeli Independence Day shindig in Washington today hosted by the Israeli Ambassador.  Which will do little, if anything, to assuage Zionist concerns about, much less distract the American public from, O's disastrous sellout to the Iranians on their nuclear arsenal that will guarantee a nuclear war in the Middle East - and much closer to home - in the very near future.

Frankly, I don't see why he's bothering with even this much.  It's not like he gives a bleep about his own party, or has any plans to vacate the presidency when he's constitutionally supposed to, anyway.  He ought to be well on to his next objective, the deportation of all American Jews to Israel, all the better to facilitate the mullahs cleansing them all in nuclear fire in one fell swoop.

It'd be a "historic" legacy, you have to admit.
