President Obama flexed his sinewy diplomatic muscles and declared that Israel’s Gaza blockade cannot be sustained and must be lifted.
Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas said (and this is a very loose translation), “Hold your horses, Hussein.” He knows lifting the blockade will strengthen Hamas.
Haaretz reports the latest Mid East diplomatic dust-up:
Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas is opposed to lifting the naval blockade of the Gaza Strip because this would bolster Hamas, according to what he told United States President Barack Obama during their meeting at the White House Wednesday. Egypt also supports this position.
Meanwhile, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu once more put off announcing the creation of a committee of inquiry into the naval commando raid on the Gaza Strip flotilla, and the matter will not be brought before the cabinet for a vote this morning.
Netanyahu and his advisers had hoped to announce the establishment of a committee of inquiry as early as yesterday evening for a vote in the cabinet today. Nonetheless, the Prime Minister’s Bureau said yesterday evening that the conditions have not matured for such an announcement “due to political reasons.”
Unfreakinbelievable. We’re left with the remarkable spectacle of the Israel agreeing with the “moderate” terrorists and the our President siding with the “radical” terrorists.
Barack Hussein Obama. Mmm, mmm, mmm.

Not that i really care but i think there is a typo in the caption under the picture. it says "life the blockade..." instead of "lift that blockade..."
Obama is so... backwards. Everything about him is backwards. He does everything backwards from what needs to be done. He called himself Kal-El from Krypton (as a joke) once. He got it wrong, he is Bizarro.
I propose we just send B. Hussein Obama over to be the Shitbag In Chief of Hamas.
DO NOT listen to the American madman. Our own countrymen cannot verify where he was born so all we can state is that he is Muslim and therefore will do whatever he can to aid his Muslim brothers. Hang in there and keep doing what you have to do to proect the Holy Lands. Tell the American dictator to take a hike! Not all of us are worshipping him. Do what you must do to protect yourselves.
