Well, actually, Obama is a pragmatist...

otherwise, if you look, for example at his body laguage with the foul old Peres last week, it says it all.

Americans are sick of Israelis, and if someone isn't careful, that will, thanks to Wall Street's tricks and Madoff, and such...this will morph over into Jews in America. Perhaps already has among the less thoughful.

But one thing is clear: Americans are sick of being used by the money grubbing, spying, savages of Israel. Tired of being as hated in the world as they, tired of spending blood and treasure for that vicious, failed state.

The US should apply the same standards to Israel and the Palestinians. It must also demand, and require, Israel to abide by the agreements signed. (That means no settlements, nowall on the Palestinian side of the border, etc.).

Then we can present ourselves as 'honest brokers'. Unfortunately, under Bush, the US vetoed its own resolution at the UN because Israel told us to!

AIPAC is preparing its offensive on President Obama...either US attacks Iran on behalf of the zionists or even the rest of his actual mandate will be a nightmare for him...forget about a second mandate if he does not comply...
Obama knows who has the real power in Washington...watch out...we know who rules US...where is the spirit of the Founding Fathers?

Let us consider some basic “facts”!
1) The world can no longer tolerate or accept the Palestinian “situation” to be unresolved.
2) Israel has done absolutely nothing to create a supportive, non-hostile environment for its continued existence in Palestine; on the contrary, Israel has done almost everything conceivable to maintain a hostile environment, presumably to justify its continuing behaviors to annex more and more land that it so covets.
3) The stated purpose of Israel was to provide a haven for the persecuted Jews of World War II. Obviously, the Israeli people have a far different objective and in fact there are few Jews in Israel that would qualify to being any of those persecuted by the Nazis.
4) There is no justification for any of the occupied territories policies, legal or otherwise, or for the continued illegal occupation of Palestine land beyond the 1967 borders. Frankly, there is no legal basis for occupying lands beyond the borders established by the 1948 UN resolutions which are the only legal basis for the existence of Israel!
5) The support of Evangelical Christians because of their belief that the Jews needed to control Jerusalem before their desired Rapture and Armageddon could happen; is waning as that whole movement becomes less politically powerful and their goals shift to new causes.
6) America is economical challenged, militarily weary, disillusioned with foreign goals and the means being used to achieve them, tired of the endless “poor us” from Israel, and ready to just walk away from the whole mess.
7) Israel has had 2 years of military debacles:
a. The senseless, needless bombing and destruction of Lebanon
b. The senseless, needless, barbaric destruction and murder in Gaza
8) The growing American awareness of the tyranny of Israel over Gaza that prevents any economic improvements, and social development, and improvement in attitudes towards the Israeli peoples.
The bottom line: Israel needs to accept a nation that is contained within 1967 borders, that provides contiguous free, unfettered land access between Gaza and the rest of the new Palestinian state. The alternative is an imposed single secular nation of Palestine, demilitarized, with rights and privileges guaranteed equally for all citizens… enforced by a UN multi-national police force as n

When is this country going to react in the best interests of the citizens here and not in the interests solely of Israel? When are we going to stop giving our tax money to countries who are destroyed by Israel, and then continue to send Israel billions of dollars? When are we going to expect the same nuclear rewponsibility from Israel as we expect for Russia, Pakistan, India, and, praise be, Iran. I personally hope that if Israel attacks Iran, or anyone else, someone will drop an equal attack on Tel Aviv. We are subsidizing terrorism when we send money to the Netanhu government. We are also paying for them to spy on us. And, from one really uninformed citizen, why are those two AIPAC spies being not tried in a court of law. They broke our laws and now our new administration is covering up for them. So much for transparency!
