obama stares at netanyahu

Great timing, Barack Hussein Obama!

On the day when Hamas aims rockets at Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, as well as southern Israel, Obama pens an op-ed piece in Haaretz, calling for… restraint.

The op-ed piece is full of platitudes, cliches, and yes, plenty of “I’s”

As Air Force One prepared to touch down in the Holy Land last year, I looked out my window….

And as a father myself, I cannot imagine the pain endured by the parents….

I am also heartbroken….

As I’ve said time and again, neither I nor the United States will ever waver in our commitment to the security of Israel….

As I said last year in Jerusalem, peace is necessary, just, and possible. I believed it then. I believe it now….

A few weeks ago, I met with President Peres at the White House as he prepares to end his term….

He also gives his administration credit for ridding Syria of chemical weapons.

Last month, under American leadership, the international community successfully removed the last of Bashar al-Assad’s declared chemical weapons from Syria.

(Must’ve been his “red line” threat. Great job, Barry!)

But here’s the most absurd part:

Via Fox News: Obama praises Abbas, but not Netanyahu in opinion piece published by Israeli newspaper

President Barack Obama offered strong praise for Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in an opinion piece published Tuesday in an Israeli newspaper, but had little to say about the other key player in the crisis, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

“In President Abbas, Israel has a counterpart committed to a two-state solution and security cooperation with Israel,” Obama wrote in the daily Haaretz. The president offered no parallel praise for Netanyahu, who is only mentioned by name once in the piece….

Yes, Abbas, who has forged an alliance with Hamas.

Who, as this is being written, shoot missiles at Tel Aviv and Jerusalem.

Pray for Israel.

    I’m surprised he didn’t sign off with SHALOM!

    I truly think there is Crack in the WH pies, because you have to be on Crack to write this crap that he wrote. Obama is truly in an alternate universe. I’m glad Israel has Netanyahu because at least he’s a leader who loves his country and will do whatever he needs to do to protect his people. God bless Israel and may God deliver us from the ruling evil class America now has.

    Just looking at the expression on Obama’s face glaring at Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, to me, speaks volumes. My prayers are with Israel, as well as our own country.

    I’d love to see a cage fight between Ben and Barry. I think Ben would ground and pound sissy boy.

    Sure to get the super duper peace prize for that one. Going to need a trophy room rather than a presidential library.
